So, was there any violence outside of the stuff with the car?

Let's see if we can go the next 3 pages without resorting to whataboutism.

Using this list, and including today's incident here's my tally of terrorist incidents post-9/11 (rough count, not plugged into Excel or anything):

65 different attacks:
- 31 perpetrated by Islamic extremists
- 15 perpetrated by neo-Nazis, sovereign citizens, and assorted far-right terrorists
- 3 perpetrated by black nationalists, ecoterrorists, and assorted far-left terrorists
- 16 perpetrated by people with other or unknown motives

167 people killed (not including attackers)
- 95 were killed by Islamic extremists (over half of these in the Orlando shooting)
- 37 were killed by neo-Nazis, sovereign citizens, and assorted far-right terrorists
- 4 were killed by black nationalists, ecoterrorists, and assorted far-left terrorists
- 31 were killed by people with other or unknown motives
Precisely. If killing the families of ISIS members is okay, then killing the families of right-wing terrorists is okay too.
Why don't you just kill yourself if you're this itchy to do some harm?

Cool it, Sanchez. You're going to get banned if you continue.
I'm going to get banned? Did you read Cora's post? It's only a matter of time before he goes out to "avenge" what happened today.

Lost already.

In other news, /pol/ "identified" the driver as Joel Vangheluwe and used various photos of him in artsy outfits as a way to prove "he's not one of us lmao, just another leftist"

And that would be great and all if Joel wasn't posting on Facebook as we speak.

Cora isn't going to kill anyone, and you don't want anyone to kill themselves either. So, both of you need to hush with that level of discourse.

If I were black, I would not go to a march of ku klux klan, This regrettable fact could be avoided but the provocation won.
If only the victim just got out of the way! Roll Eyes

If leftists were 1/20th as violent as right wing media makes them out to be, this rally would've been been over by sunrise.

Listen, if the white nationalists marched and nobody came out to greet them, then they would get bored and never ever march again.

Every incident like this gets /pol/ into detective mode, which has never not ended in them descending onto some poor innocent sap's social media page like a swarm of locusts.

Some of the DSA protestors were undoubtedly supporters of crazy and hateful stuff like "reparations" and abolishing the police/prisons. The hate, bigotry and discord that tears apart the U.S. doesn't just come from one side (and yes, the organization behind the alt-right demonstration was absolutely deplorable too, but that goes without saying). People who don't see this are willingly blind and can't blame Trump for it; this issue long preceded Trump, as he himself alluded to.
Wanting compensation for trillions of hours of unpaid labor and the continued economic oppression post slavery is hateful? Oh.

Likely has no relation to the events downtown. Two confirmed deaths in the crash though.

If you don't see how "reparations" are racist and hateful, you're very much part of the problem.

The vast majority is one sided. Vastly one sided.

I remember when they claimed a dead guy who was punched Richard Spencer.

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

Obsessed ?
Do you mean like when the right was hysterically obsessed with Hillary's emails ?
