I suspect anyone with kkk or Confederate flags at this “white nationalist” ralley would not last long.

It is amazing the lies that they cling to.

Nothing scares the leeches more than white people having a place of their own.

the media/dem complex is trying to shift the blame from themselves and their Black Lies Matter hoard, that’s why they are talking, without any evidence, about “white supremacists”. They realize that most people don’t like rioters, looters, and arsonists. During the 2016 campaign, the media/dem complex instigated and organized riots at Trump events. After a while they realized that the riots were actually winning support for Trump, so they instantly turned them off. Out were the hoards of minority rioters and in were small numbers of peaceful, white sign holders.

They've blamed...far-right white nationalists

No one, and I mean no one, believes this. Even those trying to sell the lie. And that's what it is: an attempt to explain away all the lily-white ANTIFA rioters. But Trump has tied them to these riots just today.

All I read about “White Nationalists” is how scary they are not just because of their beliefs but because of guns, guns, guns, guns. So many that not only are such groups Nationalists but they are a militia!!. Well if that is the case and these are the ones causing all that unrest. Why aren’t more people dead? Why isn’t the violence aimed at real enemies of their sick imaginings rather than mom and pop businesses? Why? Because the bogeyman of White Nationalists stirring up Blacks and others to destroy their own communities is B.S. In fact White Nationalist terrorism is pretty much a bogeyman. There are probably more Feds in such groups than not.

Show us some of these white nationalists! If you’re going to lie you have to make up a better story than that.

It happened in 68. People were repulsed by the rioting which was legion
Including at the demoncat convention
Now to be fair, we did have the Vietnam war ; the assassination of Martin Luther King ; the assassination of Robert F Kennedy

so they did have a lot to bitch about ; those young people

I’m starting to honestly think this George Floyd thing is a media set up

The “peaceful” aren’t peaceful if they are standing around nearby, doing nothing to help, nodding their approval, or even cheering the violent ones on.

Yes, truly amazing. They just can’t bring themselves to say the “protestors” are opportunist thugs looking for any chance to get a free TV or Six-pack and let their inner savage come out.

If they have a skate board in a riot they are ANTIFA.

So true. I have never seen a white nationalist on a skateboard. Sure, a chevy pickup but no skateboard.

Peaceful protester?

Is that anything like the rare and elusive moderate Muslim?

What's a "white nationalist"? Are there "black nationalists" too, ie patriots?

“White nationalists” are groups like neo-Nazis and the Klan.

“Black nationalists” are groups like the Panthers and the Nation of Islam.

“American nationalists” would be American patriots.

This shouldn’t be something we need to explain over and over again.

That “nationalist” in any form or context has a negative connotation is a democrat construct and language manipulation by democrat scum.

ANTIFA and Black Lives Matter sure sounds like White Nationalists to me.

What white nationalist would use a skateboard or a bicycle chain as a weapon?

It’s amazing the damage a “few” can do. You’d think the police could handle a “few”.

Sum Ting Wong with this claim.

Machete.

Not the best move, IMHO.

Antifa was out in Los Angeles last night, for sure, spray painting “ACAB”, “FTP” “F*CK 12” breaking windows and setting fires. They moved in small groups and dispersed over a fairly wide area.

Black gangsters then drove up and looted targeted stores.

BLM and Antifa are coordinating. This was planned.

You can bet Garcetti won’t allow any investigations or prosecutions though, that would lead much to close to his door.
