Trump had it exactly right. You have a mixture of whites with different motives protesting or whatever the removal of a statue that nobody had paid any attention to forever. Then you have a group of activists with different motives come in to confront the protestors and violence breaks out.

Imagine that.

Of course, the media and politicians are immediately slobbering all over themselves trying to prove who is the least racist.

Leave the fucking statues alone.

I guess it is like an opiate for the race baiters to hand out instead of something that might actually be useful.

I wouldn't be one bit surprised if we find out that it is someone in Trump's administration organizing these alt right rallies.

You're the first one to mention the statues this weekend. This isn't about the statues.

I can't decide which is worse - the actions of the white supremacists or the refusal of the president to show any moral leadership in its aftermath (while acknowledging his contribution to the ascendancy of the Alt-Right). If you don't condemn both, you are indeed deplorable.

Well Barbara, who is organizing the resistance ?

Other wise you would have had 1/1,000,000 of the population piddling around for a few hours and nobody would have even known about it.

I don't have any problem with that. But, it seems the media wants to crucify Trump because he didn't make the whole deal 100% the fault of white supremacists.

Three for three. You're rising right to the pinnacle of ass holiness. Meanwhile, Mr "you own this hatred", I'm still waiting for you to apologize for James Hodgkinson. Why not lead by example and show us how it's done?

Bull shit. That was why they were there is it not, to protest the removal of a statue ? Maybe I missed something.

They went there to flex their alt right muscles, to intimidate, and to fight!

Note the second video, as well as the first.
