I'm not buying that.

It's a very common governance structure in VA. See Snopes, " why the claim that the mayor issued a stand-down order which police were required to obey is not possible: The city operates under a council-manager form of municipal government, meaning the city manager functions as the executive. Under this system, the mayor is selected by the City Council, not voters. The role rotates and is mostly ceremonial in its duties. Thus, Charlottesville Mayor Michael Signer would not have had the authority to issue a “stand-down” order to the police."

So, the stand down order is a myth. More generally it does seem that the police did not intervene strongly enough at certain points, and I think it's open to debate why - lack of experience in these incidents, plan A (separating protest groups) broke down and no Plan B, antipathy to white supremacists, presence of heavily armed militias, etc.

For more on various rumors surrounding policing at Cville, Snopes has an extensive sourced entry - http://www.snopes.com/were-police-told-stand-down-charlottesville/

The police chief would have nothing to gain from such a gross failure. McAuliffe, on the other hand, propelled himself to the international stage. He was no doubt involved in discussions before the event.

Governor McAuliffe will not denounce the altleft terror group, Antifa.

The Mayor will be holding a news conference today. Will he dare to denounce Antifa? The WS will take advantage of this cowardly puppet. Grab your popcorn. Not.

Why is terrorizing Nazis a bad thing?

I hope every single victim of violence that day, sues that Democrat Mayor of Charlottesville.

That's what they're doing across the country, where the cops were ordered by liberal mayors, to standby and watch the violence, "until there seems to be imminent death".

I wonder this too. And McAuliffe. Where was the National Guard?

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

The killer was an ISIS copycat.

And the new killer in Barcelona is a White supremacist copycat, right?

ISIS has been mowing down people for years. ISIS has zero interest in how a white girl got killed by a white boy in Charlottesville, VA. Believe me.

I suspect ISIS is very interested in anything that makes the US more fragmented. Their ultimate goal is to create a caliphate and dissension helps that goal

No, he's in South America on buisiness. But he is cutting his trip short to come back early to meet with Trump at Camp David this weekend. And he's also cancelling his prior planned obligations. Hmm, wonder what's up with that?
