Charlottesville Virginia

New posts
Maybe it's just me...but why in the hell would someone knowingly go to a white supremacist, KKK, Nazi protest knowing they are a hate group and that whenever they have been confronted in the past it creates havoc? There is nothing peaceful about a white supremacist hate group and confronting them only fuels the hate. History has obviously taught us nothing. Stop giving them credibility and by showing up.

Maybe because people live there. Charlottesville is their city. I suspect if our town was to be inundated by the modern KKK a lot of local citizens would rise up to show a counter protest. The White Supremacists went to an area of town where a fairly high concentration of blacks live. The were breaking in and attempting to breaking their homes. Those people fought back as did other locals who came to their assistance. The "permitted" intruders were not just quietly walking in protest. They were chanting racial slurs and trying to incite (which they obviously accomplished) and destroying peoples property. ... I can't picture myself passively sitting back and doing nothing, but that's just me.

Where were all these people you speak of when Westboro Church came to Walton County?

Can you provide any media or fact based accounts that will substantiate these allegations? I'm concerned about the statement "The (sic) were breaking in and attempting to breaking their homes." That is very concerning.
 
Wow. While I don't equate our US military to the current antifa groups, that is a damn good post!

I've got to give you credit, it's good!

I don't know much about antifa, but I hope we can all agree that anti-fascist should be every good person's default state.
