State of emergency declared amid violence at Charlottesville's 'Unite the Right' rally

Thought I'd post this cuz its trending on twitter.

A person has died after a car hit protesters

I see this forum's first thoughts following a rally in which Nazis took to the streets shouting "Jews will not replace us" and rammed a car into protesters, killing at least one person, are "well, at least it's not Obama" and "be a bit more specific about the location please"

It was the Neo-Nazis that Attacked the anti-hate protestors

This is breaking news and a massive issue - people are being killed - can we have a proper discussion and not discuss the location or who posted the thread?!

I can't believe that This can still happen in America - a country which is so diverse and supposedly forward has people shouting "burn the Fags" and attacking black people and they are allowed to do it! So ****ed up

If I could like this post I would

Is this supposed to be English?

Their literally killing people because a statue of a pro-slavery general was removed

Can't be
It's saying that people who Hate blacks and literally want them dead are better than a president who was fighting against those types of people

It's better than more ''Racist Paedophile Grooming Gangs'' threads or any threads blaming every problem in the World on ''the Muslims''.

Trump, his lack of sense and intellect and the right-wing dumb-asses who believe a word of his self-serving lies should be a great concern to everyone...........until he's removed from office at least. Trump's provided them with the ignorant, ill-informed mouthpiece they've long craved and since he's been in power all he's done is chipped away at American Democracy and the backbone of America, the constitution. The man HATES democracy.

The real problem Trump and the majority of other Obama haters had was the colour of his skin.

If you don't like or support a president who is a black man it must be because of the colour of his skin. It couldn't possibly be for any other reason. Agenda driven rubbish. :shrug:

Trump was just putting emphasis on peace for everyone and that everyone needs to be respectful etc
Failed to point out that the issue here is the white supremacist
If the issue was the BLM movement he would've pointed that out and talked about how awful they are like he does with Muslims

:thumbs:

:clap1:

Yes
its getting worse.

I'd be interested in reading/hearing about what actually happened in a nonbiased way. I don't trust Twitter, not after a free speech event which was crashed by violent leftists turned into "Nazi Trump rally attendants attack anti-racists"

Multiple Republican senators are now tweeting things along the lines of "this is domestic terrorism", "we need to combat white supremacy" etc (even Farage is in disbelief that there are people doing Nazi salutes in 2017, as if he's totally innocent of fuelling stuff like this). The President, on the other hand? Not only makes sure to emphasise that there's violence "on both sides", but stops mid-speech to talk about what a good job he's doing at reducing unemployment. Prick.

Er, what do you want to read about if it isn't the truth? Hundreds of people are taking to the streets with torches chanting stuff like "Jews will not replace us" and "**** the ******s" and, er, running people over and killing them. Wake up.

He also did not denounce the Nazi element.

(the longer of the censored words there is a homophobic slur, you're welcome)

"Nothing patriotic about Nazis" - Marco Rubio tonight
"White supremacy crap is worst kind of racism" - Mike Huckabee tonight
"The white supremacists and their bigotry do not represent us; all Americans should condemn this vile hatred" - Jeb Bush tonight
"Woo, unemployment figures" -- Donald Trump tonight

This is probably coming from the same people who defend police when they shoot unarmed black men so it's gonna be impossible to get our point across
Even though they are literally killing people

Former head of the GOP in Virginia with some choice words (beginning with f and ending with uck you) for Trump in the wake of this:
