The rest of the article gets a bit squirrely about how many protestors were peaceful on each side, but the amazing thing to me is that the press pukes never noticed that Antifa are violent thugs before

I suspect that a minimum of twenty percent of everyone there...both alt-right/alt-left...were hired and brought in. Maybe even paid for by the same foundation. It’s like a WWE-wrestling script.

...there were violent anti-fascist protesters who came to the protest looking for a fight.


If you bring coke cans filled with concrete, yes, you came looking for a fight. It’s kind of a sick weapon. If you see a rock coming at you, you duck. If you see a coke can coming at you, you may try to just bat it away, etc. Breaking your arm or nose.

"Since the weekend, witnesses have told us that in fact, both sides were antagonizing for a fight..."

Gee..isn't that pretty much what the President has said...several times?

There is plenty of evidence that the AntiFa fought to ensure no video of their behavior.

They clubbed official media and undercover videographers.

As repugnant as their views are, the Nazi’s should be allowed to have their event in peace. Anything else isn’t America.

Charlottsville set this whole thing up. They should have never permitted the counter protest to be so close to the Nazi event. Of course, if you just leave the statue up, nothing happens at all.

"Since the weekend, witnesses have told us that in fact, both sides were antagonizing for a fight,"

IIRC there was no evidence that Republican Congressmen who the Bernie supporter tried to murder were *also* spoiling for a fight.

Let’s examine the facts. On Friday night, when Antifa was outnumbered about 5 to 1 there was almost no violence. On Saturday morning when the numbers were inverted there was a great deal of violence. I am wondering if there could possibly be something here? If “both sides were violent” then we didn’t the Antifa folks get their rear end handed to them on Friday night?

I was at first struck by how those on the so called “alt right” came in combat gear spoiling for a fight. But I have since realized they were NOT spoiling for a fight but based on lessons learned from the left’s police empowered attacks on them (at Trump rallies and Berkley), then came ready to survive the inevitably alt left attack coordinated with the Dem leadership.

That’s going to be increasingly hard for them to deny as this thing progresses.

Of course their were violent Left Wing Protesters. CBS this morning ran a clip of Leftists pulling clothing away and flags away from the “Bad” guys in a violent proactive fashion, yet acted as if they were in peaceful prayer - the media LIES, simple as that.

NBC must be realizing that the people aren't buying the "lying eyes" argument.

Could someone please email this article to Charles Krauthammer?

And while you’re at at it please explain how this new video service called YouTube will allow him to go back and review what actually happened that day and that he no longer needs to rely on reports from the WP and NYT.

FWIW, I gave an interview yesterday to some BBC reporter on this stuff.

I’m shocked that they’d admit it.

Of the dozen segments approving the lefty protesters on last night’s CBS evening news, there was one with Republican black women that was a breath of fresh air.

Look this horrible outcome Charlottesville gig, set up by Terry McAuliffe and his Racist Mayor & Racist Assistant Mayor, as the Democrat last ditch effort to sink POTUS Donald J. Trump will be fully and factually outlined by the investigation by the DOJ & FBI. McAuliffe thinks he is a cute, sneaking, conman, who has covered all his tracks. Not so..you will soon learn.

However his (McAuliffe), cute little venture that ended in riot, murder, death & injuries along with the “Statue & History” teardown & destruction has cost the Democrat Party the entire South, come the Mid-Term elections of 2018.

Proof: Alabama Republican/Democrat Primary Results from the recent election held on August 15, 2017.

Total Republican primary candidate votes cast - 450,000
Total Democrat primary candidates votes cast - 160,000

The great state of Virginia will elect a Republican Governor and Democrat Senator (VP Candidate), Tim Kaine will be massively defeated. The entire South will follow that pattern. The history of slavery in the USA is a stain that should always remain to remind us that all men & women are created equal.

However as a powerful student of American history, the overwhelming foot soldiers of the Confederate states were non slave holders defending their states, their farms and their beloved families. And...those that destroy statues, monuments, etc., history, to make it conform to their political mantra are truly the Hilter’s Castro’s Stalin’s, Mussolini’s, Madero’s tyrants of the world!!! We, here in America, always need to know where we came from, good or bad, so that we never make the deadly mistakes that can cause our great country to collapse....which is exactly what the Terry McAullife’s of this world desire!!!

They weren’t following this business since Berkeley. I’ll give you a hint, the left drew blood first.
