I hope he gets a good lawyer and conservatives keep their scrotum sacks intact and support him.

Yet the libs with the bats will get away with no repercussions.

And you are believing what? I would like to see the info you have that leads to a different opinion.

[wastoute]

So far I am believing he is accused of murder. That is about it. I have read he may have been attacked as he was pulling out of a parking garage a block or so away as were many people. I have seen video of him hitting his brakes before anyone was hurt and then hitting the gas after his car was struck with a baseball bat. So far I have done my best to form an opinion only on real evidence. I have seen the BSM do everything they can to vilify him on almost no evidence he deserves it.

[ilovesarah2012]

We’ll see. Personally I don’t give a crap about him one way or another. Sad the woman was killed and others injured.

[Kickass Conservative]

>>>He identified with the Nazis according to teachers. I’ve got no sympathy for him<<<

I assume that means the phrase “Innocent until proven Guilty” is just a slogan then.

I personally think a majority of Liberals are no better than Traitors to the Republic, but they are still entitled to a Fair Trial under our Constitution.

Liberals think you and I are Nazis because we are Conservatives. Would you want any Liberals on a Jury if you were on Trial where your Political Beliefs are used against you? They have no respect for the Rule of Law like we do.

BTW - Exactly what did his Teacher say he did, Salute the Fuhrer every morning during the Pledge of Allegiance?

How many of today's “teachers” believe in Socialism / Communism and influence their Students with their Ideology? I'll go out on a limb and say it's a majority.

Just my $.02, your Mileage may vary.

I try to base my opinions on fact as much as possible. Like Scott Adams says, no one can ever have all the facts and so inevitably were are never “fully rationally”. I do my best to know just where my decisions have been emotional and stay reading to react to new information in these areas. One thing that has been verified for me in the last two days. The BSM is about the worst source of real information imagineable.

[wastoute]

Sad to see anyone injured frivolously and even worse, to be killed. Like you, I would like to see it stop but the only way that is gonna happen is for Trump to crush Antifa without mercy and I don’t see any effort being made to do that.

[RushIsMyTeddyBear]

Dayum.

[wastoute]

It seems to me that far too many are buying the BSM propaganda lately and sadly that includes more than a few freepers. I have been typing my fingers off for two days now trying to help out here. At my age that is about all I have to contribute. So far, what I have seen from “his teacher” is he wrote a paper on German military tactics. Like I say, at the Advance Course for Field Grade officers I learned that the US military adopted many of the German’s command structure policies following the war. Seemed like a good idea to me. That makes me a Nazi?

[Kickass Conservative]

Patton must have been a Nazi sympathizer because he read Rommel’s Book on Tank Warfare Tactics.

[dfwgator]

And Patton hated Commies, to the Left, that pretty much makes one a Nazi.

VIDEO: Protesters Attacked Charlottesville Driver’s Car With Baseball Bat

There's at least one video which proves that the vehicle in question had launched at least one individual up into the air, while it was moving forward, before stopping and going in reverse. It's as clear as day.

Now I don't know if there were any "bat" attacks that had occurred before that moment, but any assertion that the vehicle didn't hit people while it was moving forward is patently false.

It still might be a case of self-defense. The driver might have accelerated forward as a result of one of these "bat" attacks, or just out of fear or malice. That will be for a jury to decide. But I've seen some people subscribing to the notion that people were only hit when the car stopped and reversed. That is simply not true, and there is video that definitely proves it...

[sargon]

And when I say "while it was moving forward", I mean while it was rolling down the street at speed—well before it decelerated and was coming to a stop...

Sometimes, it’s just about preserving the information for the next generation

It’s the least we could do.

[wastoute]

There is a moment in the video, before the car has hit anybody where the brake lights are on, then the left rear fender is struck with a bat and then he gives it the gas.

[ETL]

Looks to me the bats come out AFTER he hits the crowd.

Yes. There was an earlier report which claimed a protester hit the car with a bat as it was speeding towards the crowd. However, according to the following still shot, it appeared to be a flag.

Again, this was as the car was speeding down the block towards the crowd. Reports are the guy was a fan of Adolph Hitler.

So, members of one side admired a mass murderer like Hitler, while large numbers of the other no doubt admired mass murderers like Mao tse Tung. ANTIFA is a combination anarchist - communist organization. The red and black symbol is the logo for Anarcho-syndicalism.

Anarcho-syndicalism

A common Anarcho-Syndicalist flag.

In the early 20th century, anarcho-syndicalism arose as a distinct school of thought within anarchism.[78] With greater focus on the labour movement than previous forms of anarchism, syndicalism posits radical trade unions as a potential force for revolutionary social change, replacing capitalism and the state with a new society, democratically self-managed by the workers.

Anarcho-syndicalists seek to abolish the wage system and private ownership of the means of production, which they believe lead to class divisions. Important principles include workers' solidarity, direct action (such as general strikes and workplace recuperations), and workers' self-management. This is compatible with other branches of anarchism, and anarcho-syndicalists often subscribe to anarchist communist or collectivist anarchist economic systems.[79] Its advocates propose labour organization as a means to create the foundations of a non-hierarchical anarchist society within the current system and bring about social revolution.

I think you're incorrect. He hit someone BEFORE that particular person swung at the back of his car.

I'll have to locate it, but there's definitely a video which shows someone flying through the air as the car is moving forward, well before the vehicle ever stops and reverses itself.

I realize there are several different videos, but I'm focusing in on the fact that the car struck pedestrians as it was rolling down the street moving forward, and not just when it stopped and then reversed itself.

So what I'm disputing is the idea that the vehicle didn't hit anyone until it was coming to a stop and then reversed itself.

Now it may very well be that, before the vehicle hit anyone while it was moving forward, it still might have been attacked first. That might very well be the kind of fact that a jury must decide.

This guy could very well get off the hook if it is established that he was in fear for his life as a result of pedestrians attacking him before anyone was hit.

But, to reiterate, the vehicle did send at least one person flying through the air while moving forward "at speed", well in advance of any deceleration and reversal. That fact should not be in dispute, and if it is, then someone is missing a critical video clip...

[wastoute]

The frames I have seen show him at least tapping the brakes before he hit anyone, then the hit on the left rear fender, then gas, move forward at speed about twenty feet, then hit a car and then reverse.
