Torch-bearing white nationalists march ahead of alt-right rally(Charlottesville)

I don't sympathize with the car driver at all. He ought to be locked up for life.

This incident is not, however, a validation of the leftist worldview.

This is Virginia; there's a strong chance he might get the needle for this.

That's a good point - virtually all of these alt-right protesters had grandfathers or great-grandfathers who fought the Nazis.

By the modern left's standards, most of the men who fought the Nazis in WW2 would be considered Nazis themselves. Take Enoch Powell, for example.

What does Enoch Powell have to do with the actions of this guy?

The left seems to be hysterically obsessed with Trump, who condemned the hatred and bigotry espoused.

Then felt the need to add 'on many sides' at the end of his statement, which is trying to blame the protesters for this terrorist attack.

[Silent Hunter]

Trump may as well say he supports the neo-Nazi thugs.

He condemned them, but don't let facts get in the way of your strongly held opinion...

His condemnation was in a mealy-mouthed, "the other side are just as bad" form that I personally detest whoever does it.

They started it. This murderous nutjob ended it. Violence begets violence. Spare me the crocodile tears about the "division" in the country.

Violence may beget violence, but "they started it" is not an excuse.

You all had plenty of excuses on hand for the Scalise shooter.

I never excused the Scalise shooter.

[Silent Hunter]

Many on your side did. Will you disavow?

Yes, I will. The attack was unjustified and wrong.
