They wear black hoods, black clothing, etc plus carry billy clubs.
Doubt they would go anywhere near anyone who isn’t unarmed and outnumbered. 
So they probably were not there yesterday.

How about providing a picture that shows all the people there because of the statue and not that they were overwhelmingly whote supremacists. You cant because that picture doesnt exist

Don’t know and I don’t care. When i was young, growing up in Detroit, I observed racism. I also observed how much all of us grown, nationally and even elect a black POTUS. I’ve observed the many changes over the decades that insure that the problem of racism has been and is being…successfully addressed. I’m moving on to other problems that are bigger and demand my attention. That doesn’t mean I’ll ignore the possibility of a resurgence but…when I witness more interracial couples and babies through out the south…that is proof positive that there are now more important problems that need to be addressed.

You’re such a hypocrite. You lambast a poster for rearranging words in a post to completely change the meaning and then here you are…doing it yourself. You really are a hypocrite.

Nobody is doing that. We’re saying that the Unite the Right rally was organized by racists to advance their cause. Everything that happened that day was indeed a result of that rally

Wrong. This was the question asked of you. You failed miserably
Can you provide a link to promotional material that shows the march was aimed at protecting statue

It would have been more accurate for him to say there were some bad people on all sides.
There were 3 hate groups there imo. Neo nazis, Antifa, and BLM.
No wonder it all ended in a fight.

You see… that wouldn’t have been a wrong thing to say.
But he ■■■■■■ up… a couple of times.
I don’t think he thought that one through.

You’re trying to nuance the President’s “both sides” comment. We get it. There were probably nice, well-intentioned people who got wrapped up in the unite-the-right rally under false pretenses or whatever. The rally was not about those kinds of people. It was about the organizers who intended the rally to be about white nationalism. You could parse any hate group’s rally and say that there MUST have been a few good people there.
It was misguided for the President to categorize the attendees of a hate group rally as good people. Just own up to that.

And White Nationalists. Why did you omit them?

Is there some reason that you want to continue talking about the Charlottesville incident ad nauseam instead of the thread topic? Is there something more to say about it that hasn’t been said or are you obsessed too?

The Unite the Right rally was organized by White Nationalists.
It had little to so with preserving the statue.
Also… the statue could be preserved elsewhere.
Now you are just rationalizing the PC movement against historic monuments that offend leftist snowflakes. Apparently you don’t want to acknowledge the painful episodes in history, you want to hide them and pretend they never happened. What your ilk is trying to do with these monuments to southern civil war heroes is no different than burning books written about them. Do you want to do that too?

Historic monuments to people who committed treason.

Destroy them! Wipe their names and their images from the annals of history!
Civil war wasn’t about slavery.
That is why Colonel Robert Gould Shaw was buried face down in mass grave for leading free black soldiers.

Any reason why you didn’t address the rest of my post?
