#1 Notice how 'white nationalism' is conflated with 'white segregationists'. Just as the same perps conflate illegal and legal immigration, and natural climate change with man made climate change. Not to mention universities are already engaged in black segregation in dorms and programs. Make them define 'white nationalism' to see what they're really saying instead of accepting an amorphous catch all.

#2 The crash is being investigated and it is unclear if it was tied to the protests.

But it was listed as such in your article title and on TeeVee by your feckless 'all convicts should vote' Dem Governor McAuliffe.

#3 So this had nothing to do with the people who wanted to tear down statues in the first place or showed up for the counter-protest? And BLM had nothing to do with the cop deaths that resulted during the years when "O" fanned the BLM flames with his rhetoric? I guess Dem Governor McAuliffe wouldn't think that. Jackasses.

Now, Trump is being criticized for not doing enough although he did strongly condemn the Charlottesville riot. Let McAuliffe, a member of the smartest people in the world criminal cabal, handle it. Let's see how good he is at dealing with such things.

#4 At a time when expensive Ivy League and state colleges offer for-credit courses on Ending Whiteness, White Privilege, etc you sort of have to wonder just exactly what constitutes a 'White Nationalist'. Keep in mind the people doing the defining are the same ones telling heterosexual men they MUST like, admire and sexually pursue transgender individuals. So, a 'White Nationalist' is what exactly?

#5 So, a 'White Nationalist' is what exactly?

Judaism <----> Christianity

Zionism <----> White Nationalism

#6 ...you sort of have to wonder just exactly what constitutes a 'White Nationalist'.

It is anyone who disagrees with or speaks out against the tyranny of the Dems/left and happens to be white. If you happen not to be white and a conservative, and speak out against the tyranny of the left, you get painted with a brush similar to "White Nationalism." You might be called an "Uncle Tom" or other some other choice term of endearment (sarc). In other words, it is a phrase that the left uses to demonize opponents. "Nationalist" has become similar to sexist, misogynist, homophobe, xenophobe, Islamophobe, racist and all the other names used for name-calling and to shut people up and cut-off the debate of ideas.

#8 You have to be impressed at how quickly the authorities were able to determine the driver's motives. Usually, it takes a lot longer.

#10 White Nationalist = Nazi Lite

#11 Claims I read suggested the arrested person had a Facebook page that had all sorts of White Nationalist garbage on it. Assuming they got the right Facebook page (the article had a lot of weasel words).

Sometimes its easier to tell motive than others.

#12 So, they were all Nazi-Lites? I bet a majority were just pissed at the history (good and bad) revisionism and the constant belittling and spitting on the race that did a lot of the work in Western Civilizatuion. You know, the one with toilet paper, microwaves, freedom of speech and all that shit

Anyone who fails to subscribe to communism.

Any similarities of the symbology are purely coincidental.

#16 A little too elegant, John.
Perhaps 'professional agitators'.

#17 p.s. Anybody want to bet that it won't turn out that the driver hit the gas after being mobbed by antifa crowd?

#18 So you had a bunch of so-called white supremacists spoiling for a fight. The police underestimated what they would need for resources to handle this event. How much intelligence did they perform on the participants? They got a permit. The police did not separate the groups. And who did not look into the other side willing to join the fight? Who backed them?

The news hounds just talk about the riot. They never go into background or causes. Welcome to the propaganda state. Got an agenda? Go for it.

#22 OK, kids, here is a story from my Berkeley riot daze in the late 1960s. Well the riots were on and the aroma of tear gas was wafting through the air. The police had a Bell 47G2 helicopter flying through the area, monitoring all the ~~entropy~~ activities going on. Some kids were flying kites at Northside Park. The pilot landed in the area, and admonished the kids to not fly kites, as the helicopter could get things tangled in the tail rotor, causing a crash. So the kids brought in their kites. However, word got around and there were scores of kites flying a few hours later like barrage balloons. The helicopters were required to fly at a much higher altitude, diminishing their effectiveness.

#23 Not Earnest, g(r)om. A very drunk speech-to-texter with a limited repertoire.

#26 We are not sure why the helicopter crashed, but we are going to go ahead and put the number killed by the protests at three.

Unless someone was purposefully trying to take down the copter, it is a tragic work accident.
