This is so sad. Racism sucks. Identity politics sucks. Virginians don't mess around with the preservation of their living museum history. Add racists to that mix and you have anarchy.

Charlottesville's timing to physically remove the statue couldn't have come at a more combustible time in history.

Who hasn't condemned this rally? Everything I've seen here and in other media is expressing disapproval.



Has Trump condemned it yet? Waiting........




Still waiting.....

Even Orrin Hatch has denounced it.

Nothing but silence from Trump.

Trump should take a stand and fire Seb Gorka, the unrepentant Nazi in the White House, as an act of unifying the country against neo-nazism. Not holding my breath.

"F you, faggots" is what these fine members of the Trump coalition are chanting now to the counter protestors. Trump must forcefully condemn this demonstration, but he's proabaly on the 15th hole about right now.

Any group that espouses racist hate towards another group should be condemned by our leaders. This what a good leader does; this is what a true leader would do. But yea, Trump's silence on this is telling. Trump said he wanted to be a uniter. Well, here's his chance. Where is he? But then, why would he tweet about it? He did hire an alt right member to be his close advisor after all.

Remember how we all "lmao" at Tea Party rallies? Look at us now. This isn't a joke.


??? Are the Tea Party people killing police officers, looting/burning stores, and physically attacking people in the streets?


Uh no but these fools weren't either. However they have totally usurped a political party and mainstreamed far right ideas. Which is what's happening here.


PSA: you need to engage your brain cells to make sense. How does 300 people being "one of the largest far right gatherings in the US" qualify as mainstream?


DP. ITA. Mainstream Republicans don't do the rally thing either. If it was a Tea Party rally, there would be way more than 300 people there.

Google "sovereign citizen" and police and see what you get. Yes, extreme right wing Tea Partiers are attacking police officers. And google "Bikers for Trump" and "attack" and see what you get - yes, more Tea Partiers physically attacking people in the streets. Just a handful of things. Not to mention the hundreds of hate crime reports compiled from police reports and media over the last 9 months. Were some of them faked? Yes, but the like that Seb Gorka and others have been putting out there to dismiss the majority of hate crimes just because a handful were faked is totally off base. http://www.newsweek.com/gorka-islamic-extremism-terrorism-right-wing-extremists-648754


LOL! The fact that you think Soverign Citizen nuts are part of the tea party is demonstrative of your ignorance.


LOL! The fact that you think they AREN'T is demonstrative of your ignorance!

They are closer in ideology to anarchists than liberals are. So.....


So it is anarchist in your mind to advocate for a federal government with limited powers so defined in the US constitution? I didn't know James Madison was an Anarchist.


PP here... I think I might have missed the sarcasm.
