    The only information that I saw you provide was his alleged lack of affiliation with any other white supremacist group. I haven't bothered to read every post in this thread, so if you think you provided another reason for saying he had no motive, just let me know.

    Its not my "alleged" anything its straight from the police... You quoted the post involving the quote from the article..... So thanks for admitting you dont bother reading.
    Perhaps read it this time
    "On the witness stand, police detective Steven Young said investigators determined that Fields had traveled to Charlottesville alone from his home in Maumee, Ohio. Under questioning by defense lawyer Denise Lunsford, Young said investigators found no evidence that Fields was affiliated with any of the white supremacist groups that took part in the demonstration.

    Lunsford asked Young whether it was true that her client, after his arrest, inquired about the well-being of the people in the crowd, asking, “Are they okay?”

    Young said that Fields did ask about the victims and was told that one of them was dead.

    “He did appear to be very shocked,” Young said."









    “Did he cry and sob?” Lunsford asked.

    “Yes,” the detective replied.




    There is a reason the Post puts this information at the bottom. People like you dont read that far.

    The reason we have the Second Amendment is to support and protect the First Amendment.

    This.

    If he can reasonably demonstrate that he was in fear for his life because, say for instance, a crowd of antifa were beating on his car... poof. He walks.

    Blocking a street is of course not the end all of protesting racism or any cism it is a tool of protesting. We do not have to like it or agree with the protestors but it is a tool. During the civl rights movement protestors broke the law by blocking streets, drinking out of WHITE ONLY water fountains, and sitting in the front of the bus. All of those acts were illegal and obviously against the law.

    Yet breaking the law was the only way for them to make their point back then if segregation was to be broken within a decade or two otherwise it may have taken another 200 years.

    The current protestors of racism as they see it are using the same tactics as did guys, women, and other groups. Of course they also infested with crazies who have at times turned protests into riots and burned down private and municipal property. oH ALMOST FORGOT the anti war freaks were not exactly all peaceful flower children pollinating peacefully in the sunshine now were they.

    Sp lets make AMERICA great again and go back to nice demonstrations we had back then.

    Correct, but he can't have police and NG everywhere at once.

    Are you saying Republicans don't support tax cuts? BTW, the NG may belong to the State but they receive federal funds.

    If there was more than enough manpower, then what's the complaint? That the Mayor did't shut down the city and put out a curfew?

    That's what I think.

    There's no question this could have been avoided.

    I think that if we get to the point where have to use the 2nd amendment to protect the 1 st amendment we are seriously screwed and will be on the brink of fighting for and possibly losing both. I do not ever want us to get anywhere near that day.

    As Fields proved.

    So let me get this straight, you're blaming the Mayor and the Governor for the actions of Fields? Are you doing the same when it's a LWer nutjob in a RW state and/or city?

    He should renounce his US citizenship so he can be here illegally and get found innocent of all crimes.

    We've done it every day since 1787. Like our nuclear arsenal during the Cold War, just because it's never been used doesn't mean it isn't serving it's purpose.

    Of course, there are no records of an explicit "stand down" order and how astonishing is it that Chief Thomas' can't recall what he did and did not say on August 12th.

    Does any of that surprise you?

    Were you around here when this happened?. We had oodles of videos from every angle. There was even a drone video from above. If that video is the only evidence the prosecutor has, it's very weak. He's overcharged. Manslaughter and vehicular homicide at best. Some prosecutor is looking for a scalp for the wall and career, and some hot shot defense attorney will step in. It will be a carnival, shall I bring the popcorn? :grin:

    Why not just treat him like an enemy terrorist/combatant and the RWers will scream he deserves a fair trial?

    Hell no. :lol:

    Bring an extra large bucket - you're gonna need it.

    It's been one debacle after the other. There's no reason the trial should be any different...

    I think she was an Antifa member. That makes her a socialist at the very least, although those kids do seem in the main unhinged anarchists with little sane ideology behind them.
