Radicalized White Nationalists in Virginia

Anonymous
So a large group of disaffected white males descended on Charlottesville, VA with (tiki) torches to pay homage to the Robert E Lee statue. They chanted Wite Live Matter and sang confederate songs and provided the 'Hitler Salute" to the administration.

Yay!


At what point do we stop pretending that the so-called "alt-right" has any place in our society, in our workplaces, in our country?

The ACLU filed a lawsuit protecting the right of the Nazi's to do their homage at the public park.

That's the thing! The ACLU fights for all different groups for their constitutional rights. They are not a hate group, though. As much as Fox News wants to mislead you.

Correct. They're currently representing Milo Yiannopoulous. They defend the constitution, not politics.

That being said, this rally is shameful as is the fact they now feel it so socially acceptable and sanctioned to be a white supremacist that they don't even wear hoods or cover faces.

They also chanted "blood and soil" - straight up Naci stuff, surrounded a black church, and surrounded and attacked a smaller group of counter protestors. Lots of video clips on Twitter. All middle aged angry white men.

I know that but the red states CAN go. Anyone who wishes to secede can move to one and be free.

Uh, no there were these people called abolitionists. It was racist to own people as property. Thomas Jefferson not excepted.

Thomas Jefferson is an interesting study in contradiction. He called slavery a "moral depravity" and a "hideous blot" while working on legislation to free them. Yet he owned hundreds of slaves himself and only freed them in his will. The link below provides some insight.
