the alt-right

I've been advised by my security that #Charlottesville is too dangerous for me to speak at #UniteTheRight so I'll leave the war to the men

jfc the alt-right is fucked up

i guess i cannot judge, as a husband without a purpose

Always good to see anonymous fash accounts with a blue tick.

I can't believe I clicked on this thread tonight of all nights and saw a heated discussion about South Park smh

Twitter feed is filled with lots of photos of these asshole. I hope leads to real life consequences for them, loss of jobs, public disgrace, etc.

The big rally is today. There are crazy pictures and videos on Twitter already.

i was surprised there weren't 100 new posts when i woke up today

apparently protesters and clergy have already been attacked with brass knuckles and bats??

i'm watching a live shot on MSNBC of a group of people beating a protester with signs, and zero police around

Wtf

Is there a good roundup of Tweets from this yet?

trump has said nothing

ctrl+F for "Charlottesville" on breitbart and drudge report, nothing

xpost

https://twitter.com/hashtag/Charlottesville

also disturbing to see guns everywhere. virginia is an open carry state.

Charlottesville just declared it an "Unlawful gathering", so perhaps that means the police will actually start doing something

Wapo has a piece

Gov McCauliffe declares state of emergency

i haven't been watching the footage - how many of these people are fat?

From the videos above, most of them seem to have gotten the memo. This gathering was primarily made up of people who had recently played on a lacrosse or football team, probably.

I can't believe I clicked on this thread tonight of all nights and saw a heated discussion about South Park smh

tbf all the SP discussion was before the nazi rally so

Has the KKK ever officially/formally been branded a terrorist organization?

Melanie Trump tweeted a tepid condemnation of...something the Nazis (of course she didn't call them that). Still no word from Trump.

Our country encourages freedom of speech, but let's communicate w/o hate in our hearts. No good comes from violence. #Charlottesville

Reports on Twitter that Richard Spencer's been arrested?

he was just live on twitter

yeah could just be a similarly looking white dude w/ a part in his hair. he really was live on twitter half hour ago after the rumors started. and inside and talking about how no one should be outside protesting bc it's too dangerous.

Hope that's some dogshit his face is on.

you know, just some other Hitler youth looking dude, nothing to see here.

the uniformity is part of the political program

apparently Baked Alaska is having a rough day

ugh at all of this

Vehicle plows into counter protestors a la isis?

#BREAKING: I just watched a car plow through dozens of protesters. Extremely heavy injuries #Charlottesville

(there's a video, and it's graphic)

oh christ

here's raw footage of it happening, for those who want to see it.

you can see a couple cars slowly making their way through a large group of counter-protesters, and then suddenly another car slams into the back of the cars, then immediately goes into reverse and leaves the scene.

I didn't want to watch it, but I watched because I feel like I needed to.

Not confirmed yet but hoping the police got them

I saw the driver of this car get arrested https://t.co/vX4nepobaf

i don't know what that is, other than the blatant attempted murder of dozens of people

Yeah, there's no escaping from that.

i wonder if the police will brutalize them

This is still happening?

i fucking hate the usa

I hope there's a crowd sourced effort to document faces and identifying info for every fucking tiki-torch neo-Nazi. Let them regret this for the rest of their lives.

msnbc still reporting that they don't know if it was intentional or not. another graphic video, but this shows beyond a shadow of doubt that it was. it's a video from behind the car that did it, and you can hear the tires squeal as they slam on the gas toward the protesters. you can hear screaming, and then a few seconds the car flies backward through the same alley at a crazy speed.

I want to know who they are and where they came from. It looks like they are straight up self declared white suprematists, not just dickface provocateurs like Trump or Bannon who court this stuff but avoid directly fulminating against the Jews or whatever.

Very scary.

Is someone can get away with doing something like that in broad daylight in a crowd of self-documenting protestors, then nothing works any more.

jfc MSNBC is a garbage news organization

they STILL can't report this straight. they're still confused about what happened

I'm sure they'll catch this guy and book him for attempted mass murder.

i don't think they'll get away, they're driving a totaled Dodge Charger around
