Of course, it's not Serious Debates until the Right try to find a way to mention JC.

Whereas a decent President would be deeply concerned by this you can bet Trump is hoping that the weather will be good for golf tomorrow and if anyone reminds him about this dire situation he'll probably revert to the ''anything that distracts from my impending downfall/prosecution can't be bad''.
He's probably more worried about not alienating any of the Racist/Neo-Nazis that make up his already pitifully low 36% approval rating.

Terrorist bastard.

I bet it was a leftie, anti-Trump supporter in the car.

Just a guess.

Honestly... the US has such great potential and yet has managed to create such a ****ing mess for itself.

I'm pretty sure it's confirmed it was one of the Nazis
Why would you predict that a liberal would kill someone over a Nazi do you really think they are worse

MB. 12-08-2017 10:46 PM

Also, it wasn't a case of protesters blocking a car (not sure where that idea came from): a car literally accelerated towards a moving crowd of counter-demonstrators and mowed them down

lewis111 12-08-2017 10:47 PM

It fustrates me so so much when people compare Black Lives Matter to the alt right

BLM fight for equality and the movement it's self promotes love and equality
The alt right literally look for hate and preach it - they believe they are better than other because of a gene that makes their skin different

Confirmed by whom? Let's just wait and see.

And the left ain't liberal, they hate freedom.

I believe it was 'Oliver W' who said he'd do the same if someone was blocking his car. He may have added ''and attacking'' to apparently justify purposely killing people. If it wasn't just made up/assumed then perhaps he got it from an ureliable and incorrect source.

Well it was people protesting the March that were targeted so why would ome target themselves
Can we not hate on left wingers right now when there are literally people om the right killing people and saying they want to burn fags and kill blacks and Jews?

When you're defending racist homophobic murderers you kinda have to make up stuff to validate your point

Maybe mistaken identity, who knows? I'm just taking a guess. Just like you.

"Let's wait and see" says the man willing to bet that the car that purposefully accelerated towards a moving target (a group of counter-demonstrators) belonged to a counter-demonstrator

I mean, when your strongest guess is "mistaken identity" rather than "maybe the group walking the streets chanting about how they want to kill another group actually tried to do exactly that", that's a hell of a lot of effort to defend Nazis

A more educated guess would be that the literally Nazi targeted the people protesting against them
But as you said it's not 100% confirmed yet so i could be made to look stupid but I highly doubt it

Alf 12-08-2017 10:54 PM

Who's defending Nazis? They're scum, whom both my Grandfathers fought against, why would I defend them?

Then why would you automatically assume that it was a "leftie, anti-Trump supporter" and not a white supremacist or a Nazi?

Current form.

MB. 12-08-2017 10:56 PM

(oh, I guess chanting "blood and soil" and doing Hitler salutes at a rally makes you a Nazi now, etc etc)

JTM45 12-08-2017 10:58 PM

It's a known fact that Trump was (and still is) supported during his campaign by members of the KKK and Neo-Nazi groups.

Sebastian Gorka has Neo-Nazi links and he's a deputy assistant to Trump in the White House.

Trump's failure to specifically speak out against these groups speaks volumes.

MB. 12-08-2017 11:02 PM

The additional two fatalities were caused by a police helicopter crash

Well he did last year.

I know it won't be good enough for you, but I'll post it anyway.

The driver of the car is in Police custody apparently.

From The Independent;

Quote:

Charlottesville Mayor Michael Signer, who confirmed one person had been killed, said he was disappointed the white nationalists had descended on his town and blamed President Donald Trump for inflaming racial prejudices with his campaign last year.

"I'm not going to make any bones about it. I place the blame for a lot of what you're seeing in America today right at the doorstep of the White House and the people around the president," he said.

Helicopter crashed
