Not at all unfortunate, if it means the DOJ is going to track down and prosecute any leftist agitators behind this.

Yes, the commies were suppressing free speech. You don't have to like what people are saying, but, according to law, they have the right to say it. The commies were physically attacking people. It should actually be considered a hate crime.

I believe anarchists use a black and red flag; the red flags are usually communists (and there were hammer & sickle flags present).

The first photo shows the car ramming into the crowd.

The second photo shows the car approaching the crowd (people running, etc.)

The driver of the car being under threat is not borne out by what’s shown in these (2) photos ...

Thanks for the info, I had to work in an office yesterday and couldn’t take time to surf news sites/youtube and only access FR by phone while at work.

It seems that there were efforts to keep details under wraps (I still don’t know which side of which argument got hit, or what the 3 car accident had to do with things, any info about the other drivers, etc.). A/the suspect was under arrest by 4pm EST according to some articles I was seeing (time stamped).

It keeps down misinformation but it also keeps down information period. Again it looks like a situation of stand down orders where no one is there to keep the peace. And the violent attacks by the DNC brownshirts (on journalists and others) are considered “provoked responses” to things like videoing the landscape for journalistic purposes.

That ObamaCare coverage of 26 year-olds isn’t what it seems; it was a great way to encourage young people to stay in the insurance pools rather than drop out and just pay a penalty. The primary cause of the ObamaCare collapse is the lack of young suckers paying for older, sicker people - and extending coverage to 26 was a roundabout way to keep them in (and paying).

In others words, ... their PARENTS keep them insured (i.e. pay for their coverage) ... until they reach an age where they are more likely to pay for coverage on their own. Got it ...

Focusing on "the violence" is not a condemnation of use of New Nazi symbols in public demonstration...Melania's tweet was first cut attempt to create distance from "legitimate" white nationalism/MAGA and overt racism........... Can there be white nationalism/MAGA "without hate in your heart"? ...I think we all know the answer to that Mrs Trump.

That guy is a freaking tool.

The BLM/Antifa people were hoping for a incident like this.

That is why they chose a Neo-Nazi/White Supremacist rally.

Those idiots are far FAR less self controlled, reasonable and intelligent that real Trump supporters.

They have been trying to goad us into this reaction for a long time now and have been failing.

They get these morons to do something and get to paint us with the "Far Right Wing killer" brush.

Thus legitimizing all future violence against Trump supporters.

Exactly; they remain in the pool (with either the parent(s) or their employer paying the premium), so the average age in the pool doesn’t rise so quickly. It basically keeps them as customers rather than have them opt out completely.

The BLM/Antifa people were hoping for a incident like this.
They"ve been hoping for a "Kent State Moment". They got the wreaths, flowers, teddy bears, heart shaped balloons and candles ready for the makeshift memorial. They already have the candlelight vigil planned and the grief counselors on standby. Then the victim's family and their lawyers will be doing photo-ops, holding blown up pics of the victim in a cap and gown and nicely dressed (a tactic that goes back to the Bernie Goetz fiasco). Then the hack politicians will get in on the act doing their face time in the fake media spewing meaningless rhetoric demanding more hate crimes legislation. And of course the talking heads on CNN, MSNBC even Fox , etc lamenting how Pres Trump brought a "coarseness" and divisiveness to social and political discourse, as if there's ever been a genuine modicum of decorum in politics to begin with. So the left finally got their martyr who unwittingly took a bullet for the team.

From what I saw, his vehicle was being attacked prior to him going into the people.

Are you saying we should just let a mob do whatever they like to us and not take any action?

I don’t yet know all the facts on this one, but if it was me and I made a wrong turn or found myself surrounded by people who were attacking my vehicle etc, I’d throw my duramax into four wheel and roll coal out of there, nothing but bodies and a black cloud of coal in my wake.

I’d rather be tried by 12 than carried by 6.

Wonder what would have happened had they not wanted to take down the statue in the first place?

The distance over which the driver accelerated was actually closer to 170 feet.



In this video you can see that when the driver punched it, the rear end of the Challenger was inline with the third stanchion from the south next to the bicycle parking space. I have placed the northern distance marker there.

In this video you can see that at the moment of impact the rear end of the Toyota was inline with the first parking space marker to the north from the stop-sign. I have placed the southern distance marker there.

In the first link you will also notice that the driver stomps the brakes, hit the gas and squeals the tires, then stomps the brakes again before finally speeding toward the crowd. This is where the picture of his vehicle with the brake lights illuminated comes from. After that, the driver had almost 170 feet of room to accelerate, and the brake lights were never illuminated again before impact.

In my carefully crafted opinion, he should have been traveling well over the speed threshold for the triggering of the airbags to deploy. For some reason they did not.

‘The only suspcious part about it to me is that he had come from so far —was he there specifically for the protest, or instead was he passing through/had moved there and hadn’t yet changed his plates..’

Charlottesville is a college town, UVA, lots of people from out of State are there in college. He’s ex military so he’s a little older than the typical but not unusual.
