Victim in Virginia melee wept for social justice, her boss says

Heather Heyer came to downtown Charlottesville with her friends to make a stand against white nationalists who converged on the Virginia college town to demand the city keep a statue honoring a Confederate war hero, her boss said on Sunday.

The 32-year-old paralegal wanted to send a clear message to the neo-Nazis and Ku Klux Klan sympathizers who planned to stage one of the largest far-right rallies in recent U.S. history that people abhor their views in the city where she was born, he said.

But her decision to join counter-protesters on Saturday resulted in tragedy when a 20-year-old Ohio man drove his car at high speed into a line of marchers, killing Heyer and injuring at least 19 others.

A strong sense of social justice was a constant theme in Heyer's personal and working life, said Alfred Wilson, bankruptcy division manager at the Miller Law Group.

"There have been times that I've walked back to her office and she had tears in her eyes" for various injustices she saw in the world, said Wilson, such as the time she was weeping after reading anti-Muslim comments online, Wilson said.

Heyer was a supporter of Bernie Sanders, who ran unsuccessfully for the Democratic presidential nomination won by Hillary Clinton, Wilson said.

As a white woman, she thought it unfair that she enjoyed liberties that Wilson, as a black man, did not, he said.

Somehow I doubt that this Rachel Corrie clone ever wept for the victims of jihadi terrorist attacks. And that's because in her brainwashed mind, those weren't injustices at all -- they were justified.

Good point.
I had a long dialouge if you can call it that about all of this last night, and she was a far left loon who refused to see Altifa as an extremist group, and who then tried to tell me they do not commit violence..

The concept of “white privilege” is to instill guilt on whites. And it is amazing how any white millennials buy into that concept.

"Victim in Virginia melee wept for social justice"

You can bet her social media posts and digital fingerprint were heavily cleaned before her name was released as the fatality.

Unfortunately you are probably right....Fortunately, there are people out there who can still found out plenty about her....Not that it matters, but I’m sick and tired of the Media painting everyone on the left as angels.

I mark the assassination of John Kennedy as the end of the better world—the "before" and "after" date.

Johnson came in and everything went down hill from there. In terms of racial conflict, it has gotten worse every year. Before Johnson, black people were making steady progress. They never recovered from LBJ's cynical “compassion”.

As has been stated many times, Johnson was NOT compassionate, instead he did the social welfare socialists stuff to get the "ni$$%W to vote democrat."

I agree that the JFK assassination was the turning point. It is the event that showed the gubermint traitors that they could tell just about any lie they wanted to and the near brain dead in the public would believe what they are told to believe. Even today, the majority of Americans do NOT believe that a lone assassin killed JFK but that a conspiracy was behind the brutal murder of a US president in front of hundreds of people. The confusion that the press and the gov't puts out is sufficient to hide the truth.

Today, we are moving to the point that even the near brain dead are realizing they are lied to routinely. Some people are starting to suspect the leftists set up the riot in Virginia just like they previously set up the riots in Portland and Berkeley. Because the average American is starting to believe that they are frequently lied to by a corrupt government and a radical leftist press, the point is fast approaching that Americans will start to understand the real goals of the traitors in our government.

So that you understand the truth in the JFK assassination has been available for decades (which means you can PROVE what happened during the shooting), consider the following FACTS:

FACT 1: John Connally said in MANY interviews before his death that the blow "to his back, bent him over."

Approximately 1/3 second AFTER Connally first reacts to a shot (most everyone agrees Conally's FIRST reaction to a shot starts at frame 224 in the Zapruder film), he is NOT bent over as he described.

FACT 2: As you watch this GIF of the Zapruder film (starts around frame 232 and runs to about frame 342, which is several seconds AFTER JFK is shot in the head) you can clearly see WHEN Gov. Connally is bent over forward.

As anyone can easily see, John Connally is NOT bent over (forward) until a split second AFTER President Kennedy is shot in the head.

FACT 3:A split second after Kennedy's head shot, John Connally makes one of the quickest movements seen in the Zapruder film: These two frames are only a split second apart, frame 224 to frame 228. The only reasonable explanation for Connally moving this quickly is that is the point he was shot in the back!

Why did Connally suddenly move forward immediately after JFK is shot in the head? One hint is that Connally said "the force of the blow to my back bent me over."

FACT 4:If Connally's movement immediately after JFK was shot in the head was due to a shot, then someone should have heard the last sound as BANG-BANG, two shots fired a split second apart. Patricia Donnaldson said that is what she heard:

VIDEO PATRICIA ANN DONALDSON IS JUST ONE OF DOZENS OF WITNESSES WHO SAID THE LAST TWO SOUNDS WERE BANG-BANG

You have to listen to the end of the video to hear her say there was "the first shot, there was a pause then BAM-BAM." There are dozens of other witnesses who also describe the last two shots as BANG-BANG. Because the gubermint conspirators told the press that the BANG-BANG witnesses heard echoes, not two separate shots, the press ignored dozens of credible witnesses.

What I have shown here is just an introduction to proving a conspiracy killed President Kennedy (the last two shots being fired BANG-BANG proves there was a conspiracy, not a lone gunman).

What does the JFK assassination conspiracy have to do with Virginia? The answer is if you can lie about the JFK assassination for decades, the traitors in the gubermint today know that they only have to tell the lie and the press will convince the public 24/7 that this white nut killed an innocent liberal protester. You cannot understand the incident in Virginia until you understand the deceit in the government and the press in history. As you hypothesized, the JFK assassination opened up the playbook to lying to the public.
