    I haven't seen a particularly good article on this so far but I have read some comments on online stories that are sure making me wonder how choreographed this may have been??????

    I answered "Maybe 21 to 40 percent of rioters" and by that I mean the ones on the political left.

    I'm going to call BS on that until I see a cited quote.


    Charlottesville is easy to explain. White supremists set up a rally to draw attention knowing it would draw in violent leftists. Leftists came.

    Both sides came together looking for a fight and got what they wanted. Neither side is innocent and I would love to see the leadership of both groups, if not the whole group, also charged with the murder of this woman.

    I may have worded that badly but I mean how many of the left wing rioters might perhaps have been paid.........
    to go there... to deliberately create trouble?

    I don't believe anything from the press that can't be verified by myself.

    Put simply, you only get the part of the story the writer wants you to know, and it's never the full unedited truth.

    Last year Antifa at an anti Trump riot in Fresno, Ca the Mayor of Fresno ordered the police to stand down.

    Earlier this year at an Antifa anti free speech riot in Berkeley, Ca. the Mayor of Berkeley ordered the police to stand down while the the Antifa anarchist smashed windows and destroyed public and private property. Not one arrest was made.

    Why wouldn't Charolettsville be any different since Charlottsville is politically so progressive if it were a state, California would look like an alt-right state.


    I suppose you could always google looking for the quotes. -> https://www.google.com/search?q=cha...ome..69i57.17111j0j8&sourceid=chrome&ie=UTF-8

    I agree but my question....Why were the white nationalists granted a permit? If the answer is that it was their right then why didn't the governor move to have a strong police and even NG presence in order to seal off all the entrances to the park? Only 1 entrance was given to them but they infiltrated from all sides and there was no police to stop them thus chaos ensued.

    A federal court judge forced the permit.... As usual in these cases.

    Yes, at the behest of the ACLU however the question remains, why didn't Governor McAuliffe act to protect his State, County and City? Why weren't those weapons from BOTH sides confiscated? Why weren't the antifas throwing rocks arrested? It sure looks like 'stand down' to me and it looks like the Governor WANTED a conflict.

    A perfectly legitimate question. It's doesn't take a broad knowledge of policing and politics to know that violence was on everyone's mind so they should have had a military police or state police unit there for crowd control.

    You are right about the other instances that I had forgotten. Antifa may be a loose organization but they know how to Organize a rally and fight. These are mostly twenty somethings, usually well off college kids and why they wear masks.

    Yes.....The Democrat Governor gets away with pontificating false morality while the press tears into Trump like hungry hyenas for comments he made.

    Mayor is a Democrat, most of the town is. No one thinks the cops are that incompetent. Usually they keep the protestors and counter protestors away from each other.

    Note Trump Tower where the leftness hangs out to protest. Notice how that one group with the Initials NYPD manages to make sure no violence is breaking out in front of trump Tower.

    Antifa were some of the hired guns hired by Soros, the Hillary campaign and the DNC who caused problems and riots at Trump rallies all last year if we are suppose to believe the hacked DNC and Podesta e-mails that were published on Wikileaks.

    Antifa doesn't even need a reason or someone to hate and attack. If they have none then they attack the police. If the police are ordered by liberal mayors to stand down then Antifa attacks public and private property. Antifa are Marxist-anarchist.

    Oh My: Leftist Southern Poverty Law Center Mentions Charlottesville White Supremacist Organizer as Former Occupy Wall Street, Obama Supporter.....

    According to the leftist Southern Poverty Law Center [SPLC], one of the white supremacist organizers of Saturday's rally in Charlottesville is a former Occupy Wall Street activist and supporter of Barack Obama.

    Jason Kessler is listed with SPLC as an "extremist." Here's an excerpt from the information about Kessler published on their website:

    Despite overwhelming condemnation from Republicans and conservatives of white nationalism and what happened in Charlottesville, the left and their friends in the media have tried to pin the weekend's violence on the mainstream right. It turns out, they should be looking further left.

    Over to you Durham, North Carolina.

    Ben Jacobs

    ✔ @Bencjacobs


    The activist arrested is a member of Maoist group that is pro North Korea and had just compared police officers to the Confederate Army https://twitter.com/GrahamDavidA/status/897580797888278528 …

    5:12 PM - Aug 15, 2017 .....snip~

    I'd like to see the police chief charged with criminal violation of civil rights for having a riot squad push the marchers - who had a federal permit and federal court order - to march.
