I think I have to agree with you Desideri. She seems to argue for the sake of arguing, especially when she has been giving the vodka bottle a good nudge, even while the ground she attempts to stand on is non-existent. She reminds me a lot of my mother ( except my mother never drank) and will argue black is white and keep going around in circles until the second party finds a way to shut her up, Like this....................Bing !!!

My mother got into an argument where I showed her she was wrong by showing her the truth in Encyclopaedia Brittanica. She declared the book rwrong and just a load of made up rubbish. If I remember rightly, I joined a ship the next day that was away for fourteen months, just to get away from my fucked-up family. When I came home, I found that both my brothers and my sister had left in the interim. It surely says something about us all but I hate to think what ???

One is attacking people who don't attack; the other is attacking people exercising the right of controversial free speech.

Did the white supremacist groups attack first in Charlottesville? I honestly don't know the answer to that. I've seen claims both ways, making it all the more difficult.

The rightest scheduled their rally, then the leftist showed up to break up the rally. Intifa and company were there to create violence
as MM said when they are opposing the Klan it is ok to commit violence. I will repeat that both are scum.

You may say they are both scum, Bama, but you are clearly implying that the blame for the violence lies with the left here.
The counter protesters had a permit too. They had just as much right to be there. The violence happened in common areas.
Evidence has come out that members of supremacist groups participated in chatrooms prior to the protest, exchanging tips on making weapons that were more effective in causing harm, and instigating violence at Charlottesville, including discussions of running over protesters with vehicles.
Video has emerged off at least one white supremacist discharging his gun during the protest.
I am as disgusted by antifa violence as anyone. But the facts simply don't support your implication. At least not at Charlottesville.

yes for different sides of the park, since what you said does not match what I read I'd like to see who said it happened in the neutral zone.

Technically, it was two separate parks, RO. The violence happened in the streets outside the park the white supremacists had a permit for. The State declared it an illegal assembly and forced everyone to leave. The counter-protesters weren't in their own permitted space, but the streets are public, so all in attendance (to either demonstration) were fully allowed to be there.

Thank you for clarifying that. I have that poster on hide, so he would have never gotten an answer from me.

I was surprised at the balance of the article as well. And you are welcome...Im glad to have been able to do it.

I have a friend in Pacifica who was protesting on Saturday (I think). It seems like the Bay Area has been a hotbed this last week

quote:

And as you're reading this keep in mind that they were yelling at me and their words were filled with venom, anger, hate and intolerance. There's just no other way to describe it. I was stunned.

quote:

So why is this group, whose political ties clearly lean in synchronicity with the Bernie Sanders/Elizabeth Warren wing of the Democratic Party, not being condemned by Democrats for their thuggery and violence? And, more importantly, why isn’t the media demanding Democrats do so in the same way they demanded Republicans condemn neo-Nazis and White Nationalists?
