Martial Law has been declared and there is a curfew in place.

There is no doubt that Trump's messaging has given confidence and leash to the ethno-nationalists. He knows who his base is and he knows who he has in-part galvanized behind him.

 

Could he be playing some "high-level utilitarian game to lure them out?" I doubt it it, and if so I don't see any evidence that that is better than being brutally honest.

 

Well the media and the left have asked for white nationalists and nazies rise so they now will reap what they sow.

At least US can count on the WH to do what is right:
 
POTUS, FLOTUS, VPOTUS call for unity and condemn violence

 

You don't counter the problems of the left by swinging this far over. If anything the left has created the centrists and neoliberals by their actions. The far right is responsible for themselves, and are not the left's just deserts.

And trying to counter the far left by swinging that far over just makes both sides EVEN MORE polarized. As for the centrists, something has to fill the vacuum left behind by both sides, and the democrats are trying to decide whether to go further left or stay where they are.

The driver of the car has been identified as James Fields and charged with second-degree murder and three counts of malicious wounding.

There is a possibility that more charges will be filed at a later date.

 

 

RADICAL WHITE CHRISTIAN TERRORISM

   .....this sounds like a term created in some misplaced SJ discussion 

 

 

It's a play on "radical islamic terrorism".

 

 

It's not as "other" as Islamic terrorism but it's more likely to kill you in the US

German people are afraid of Neo Nazis who are particularly strong in the east. There's talks of a wall between west and east Germany to protect us against radical white Christian terrorism.

#buildthewall

Bennie is this your idea of a joke when you say  " German people are afraid of Neo Nazis" ?

I know German people typically don't have great sense of humours especially when it comes to joking about themselves so maybe you joking about this comment

I lived in Germany and I can tell you that he is serious. Hell, our teacher at the Goethe Institut in Frankfurt am Main thought of east Germans as a separate nation that didn't knew how to act or talk or dress like "a real German". 

 

Some links that might shed some light for you on the situation:

And yeah, such a sight for instance is pretty rare in west Germany(if not all of it):

 

 

"We're racist, we're racist and that's the way we like it".  

 

Pfft...maybe Brexit wasn't such a bad idea at all.

Care to explain how

Nope, not to you.

No, I just don't think you're worth the time. I'm getting married tomorrow and I don't want to waste my last forum check before I go dark for a while on someone who wouldn't surprise me if they took a flight and bought a tiki-torch tomorrow. Bye!

Will do. Don't worry, he doesn't know about our thing on the side. You're still my favourite bottom.

Forgot how funny that Chelsea video is. Why couldn't Hillsborough happened to them instead.

Well congragulations and I guess this means no tiki party at your wedding.

 

This is the lefts fault and lefts only. Good job guys!

 

 

So predictable.

If history repeats itself, I'll at least take some solace in the fact that the brownshirts will get a taste of their own medicine after they strongarm the fascists in.

 

Historical awareness not being their strong-suit and all.

Swastikas and Confederate flags side by side. At least the cat's out of the bag now. I much prefer it that way. 

History channel is to blame for all their Nazi programs.

I grew up on a History channel that still had lots of US Veterans featured and loved to syndicate Band of Brothers.

 

History channel now scrapes the bottom of the barrel for viewership.

"America - They really need to pick a torch...."

If so, he pulled an Obama.

Obama didn't do that with black ethno-nationalists, so, lets not throw such accusations around.

 

@raithe: I find it ironic that they used tiki/hawaiian/polynesian torches instead of white-people-made torches, whatever that looks like.

"Obama didn't do that with black ethno-nationalists, so, lets not throw such accusations around."

 

Yeah. Yeah. He did.

"Obama didn't do that with black ethno-nationalists, so, lets not throw such accusations around."

 

Yeah. Yeah. He did.

 

Where's your proof?

volo you were very quiet yesterday.....were you at the protest? Do tell...no judgement here. Which right wing did you associate with, if I had to guess I would say alt-right?
