Only during a Trump presidency: White supremicists scream "White Lives Matter" with mock torches

Scal, i said that you were s hyoocrite because you sing your "you don't know me" song and then turn around and make absolute statements about people's lives, backgrounds and personalities that you've never met and know nothing about.

I have a gut feeling that two of the posters in this forum are one and the same.  

White supremacists with weapons planned a rally to protest removal of Robert Lee's statue - an offensive symbol of racism and slavery.  Charlottesville mayor condemns the rally as a cowardly parade of hatred, bigotry  and intolerance.

 A white supremacist deliberately drove his car into a crowd of people peacefully protesting against the rally.  He is now held on suspicion of second degree murder.  Police shuts down the rally due to violence.  Peaceful protests are legal but violence is unacceptable.

LRM you have a president who is exposed regularly as a liar - only one recent example the Boy Scout speech where he claimed the phone call

Arlington National Cemetary sits on property connected to Robert E. Lee, and is where the Robert E. Lee Memorial still exist. Should we start desecrating it? George Washington is a symbol of slavery. Should we take down the Washington monument? I mean, he was more of a slave owner than Robert E. Lee ever was. These are facts. How far will this crusade to cover up our history go? The Civil War happened. Taking down a statue does not negate this nor does it better race relations. I'm African-American and while i've never been to Charlottesville, i've been to the Robert E. Lee memorial in Arlington National cemetary. And i've been to Robert E. Lee's birthplace. Why? It's historic. We fight the wrong battles in this country. Why take down a statue of Robert E. Lee now? Is it hurting people's feelings? And if a group wants to protest this, why protest the protest? They're taking the statue down regardless. Essentially you've already won. A lot of time, and energy....AND LIVES wasted to accomplish nothing. What's next? Are we going to start referring to the Duke Boys' Dodge Charger as simply "the Car"? Maybe paint a big "Rainbow Flag" on the roof? I'll tell you one thing, if we're going to start erasing symbols of Slavery from the face of this Country then we're going to be busy. George Washington, Thomas Jefferson...let's just start from the top. Or better yet, let's start working towards a better future rather than trying to erase our past.

I am racist. You are a racist. We are all racists now. The term racist has been used recently with such frequency and such abandon that it effectively has almost become a meaningless term. This is not good because there are people that are racists and they should be called out when it is appropriate. Unfortunately, too many people that use the term are just angry and do not really understand the definition of the word. It is an important, powerful word and it should not be used lightly or out of misplaced or misdirected anger. If you are going to call someone a racist, make sure that you know what the word means.                        

You misspelled "supremacists".

I can't believe after 11 years on the site, I'm arguing with a black male with the right to point out racism in its overt/institutional/systematic forms and offer my support of the black race, which I've done consistently here from Day 1!

in fact, many republican politicians made the choice and made proper statements and you know what, they didn't get criticized for it. 

i agree the whole giving a statement thing is kind of bullshit.  statements don't mean much when your actions don't back up your words.  but if you are going to give a statement, how hard is it to be firmly against the nazi/white supremacist side? 

BB, I think you need to reread your own posts and be more cognizant of the words you choose. Regardless of that, as it pertains to Scal, I argue with him because I just don't like him. He's an @sshole. He's inflammatory. He often makes arguments that do more to harm black people's image than to help it. And he does so from this position he's attained on this site, based on a notion, that he speaks for black people. And he actually believes that he understands what it means to be Black in America because he's read books. And he's disrespected me personally more than any of the so called bigots on this site. And frankly, there are people on this website that i've disrespected personally, saying nasty things, who i've been able to say to, "You know what? That was wrong. I apologize." And we've been able to bury hatchets. It's not in my nature to let internet arguments drag on. Scal, on the other hand, lives for these arguments. And he works hard to stoke these fires. And he's incapable of admitting he's wrong because he truly believes he never is. So pardon me if I don't buy into this whole "How come you and Scal don't get along? You should be fighting the good fight together.... as brothers" Bullsh!t.

And to address whst Scal said, i'm not of the belief that there aren't seats at the civil rights table for caucasians. That would be completely asinine. We wouldn't be where we are today, and we won't be where need to be tomorrow, without the support of all races. I appreciate his spirit, and his passion, but his personality is sh!t. And he often makes weak, and easily disproven, arguments on this site. And you have this sh!t personality that rubs people the wrong way, there will be no shortest of people lining up to discredit you. And they do so with facts. And if the arguments they discredit are about race, specifically the black race, then you're not really helping things.

The following link is the Alt Right explanation of what happened over the weekend in Virginia.

https://www.infowars.com/what-theyre-not-telling-you-about-the-charlottesville-race-riots/

This is infowars so there's no guarantee this is even the stance of the alt-right that organized this event or that of any if the people present. Infowars makes sh!t up.

Another observation from the demonized Alt Right.

The C-Ville riot was an orchestrated event,by a federal judge in cooperation with the Dem mayor and police, to deny the permit to "Unite The Right" access to a 180 acre area, but instead-routed the Right Extremists down a street lined with Left-wingers

Friends and Associates:By Dave Bertrand

Lisa Haven discusses the deadly riot in Charlottesville and how we are being duped into believing the corporate fakestream media spin to pin the death on Trump.

The C-Ville riot was an orchestrated event, by a federal judge in cooperation with the Dem mayor and police, to deny the permit to "Unite The Right" access to a 180 acre area, but instead....routed the Right Extremists down a street lined with Left Extremists of whom began the attacks with rocks, bottles, pepper spray while police did nothing.

Acting on his own, a devout Trump supporter, (according to his mother) states that ANTIFA communist thugs began throwing rocks at his car and he decided to do the unthinkable......running them down, injuring about 19 and killing one 32 year old woman.

Folks...I don't know about you, but if I were on an interstate where the Leftist thugs like to shutdown the highway by chaining themselves together and I just happen to be in front, and these morons begin smashing my windows to get to me....sorry, I step on the gas and run their fools over. I'll take the label as a "white supremacist" for running them down.

President Trump is being ridiculed by every opportunist on both sides of the aisle, instigated by a communist corporate media chain, of NOT denouncing "White Supremacy" as it would obviously be used against Trump as owning the label.

However, it's just peachy for ANTIFA, OFA, La Raza, Le MECha, and the Communist Party to thug their way through American streets, carrying communist flags, yelling and screaming about their loss to Trump, but no media source, except maybe InfoWars ever forced Hillary Clinton or Obama to "own it !"

The "divide and conquer" in America is expanding like never before and Civil War is about 1 minute to midnight.

For all you Whites out here....get used to the name calling and the Left's attempt to associate ALL WHITES as Trump supporters, no matter who you actually voted for, let alone the fact that Blacks and Hispanics voted for Trump.....but we are the target by the George Soros, Clinton and Obama thugs to make it easier for THEM to take down this president.

The very sad part about all this demonization against the supporters of Trump, by associating only Whites with his victory and the "stealing" of the election from Hillary, is the psychological warfare element that will cause Black, White and Hispanic Trump supporters to choose a side based-on race.

We cannot ever ignore the clear and present danger before us and when push comes to shove, the war will begin.

Sundance, I forced myself to watch your link. I can't get why internet stories are increasingly videos. What happened to reading? Anyway, I agree with a lot of what he said.

I am glad you did stu. Alex is sharp on stuff like this.

"Divide and conquer" Cause a race war so that you can trample on civil liberties under the pretense that you are protecting American citizens.

The more he types, the more undenaible truths are being revealed, this being one:

He spoke to things i've been saying myself so I can't sit back and denigrate the guy. And Alex is more of an anti-establishment, libertarian-esque, member of the alt-right. He's not a racist, to my knowledge. In fact, in that video he shows he on record as speaking out against racism. People on the far left and the far right, and the alt right, need to realize that they are being manipulated by the same forces. The same powers that be. And I don't want to get off into conspiracy theory but let's just say there are signs all around us. I don't formulate my opinions based on what I read, I base them on observing the world around me. If those opinions fall in line with someone like Alex Jones, then there's something to it.
