Why does your post seem to imply that violent "alt-left" members aren't a insignificant amount of the total population?
Because right-wingers believe the "alt-left" consists of the exact same percentage of the population as everyone who didn't vote for Trump. Then, they whine about being rightly blasted their sweeping assumptions.
Just look at what happened. Lots of violence-loving leftists descended upon UVA campus for a candlelight vigil.
They engaged in acts such as the singing of the Star Spangled Banner and We Shall Overcome. Someone even read a poem from Maya Angelou - that Marxist b*tch.
Were they all paid by Soros??? I think the answer clearly is "yes."
As our forum conservatives know so well, it's just more violence and hatred from the left. How far will they take this?
So, here's a question since the right-wing apologists for the violence in Charlottesville are trying to pretend that "technically, if the Nazis's didn't throw the first punch, they aren't to blame."
How do you feel about our armed forces? Every day, they go out and blow up terrorists on the other side of the world. In many cases, those terrorists - those people specifically - didn't get to throw a first punch. Do you complain about our military, too? Do you cry out when a "peaceful gathering of jihadists" is interrupted by a cruise missile delivery? Do you lament the loss of young terrorists recruits who never even got to throw a punch before being bombed into dust? Is that all the fault of the "evil, liberal" US armed forces for "starting it?"
Terrorists of all stripes deserve the same treatment; quit pretending our terrorist snowflakes deserve special treatment, or that is only "wrong" and "no better than they are" if you fight the domestic ones, while bombing entire nation's into dust to kill the foreign ones is not only acceptable, but patriotic.

Because they didn't hold a rally this past weekend.
In recent years the KKK and other alt-Right groups have held rallies with no issues. And I'm talking about since the early 1990s when my friends and I actually went to them to enjoy looking on and mocking them.
They are a sad pathetic bunch. It's actually fun as hell to go to them and look on at their worthless lot in life.
But again, their rallies are predominantly non-violent.
The alt-Left's rallies are nearly always violent either against police, private property or anyone in the vicinity. Their numbers are small too but their presence packs a punch. That's the point.
I haven't checked this vigil's attendance. Did BLM and Anifa come out for it?

Pure luck on their part. Just ask those folks in Berkeley (women, in fact) who had their heads bashed with metal locks and baseball bats. And how would you know what this "secretive" group's platform is, unless you align with them?
Open a book. Do some research. It's really not hard.

If you're signing up to support - publicly, no less - a terrorist organization like those right-wing scumbags in Charlottesville - terrorists group who are happy with murder in many forms and who want to commit the worst atrocities to further their bigoted cause, I'm not going to feel bad when somebody hits you over the head with a brick, anymore than I'd feel bad if the same thing happened to some clown who signed up to be a jihadist and publicly supported them and what they represent. Terrorists of all stripes deserve the same treatment.
I don't support anyone who throws a first punch.
If and when a violent act occurs the aggressor is always wrong.
Many cable news entertainers rely on posing a question or the stand-bye " some people say..." and build an entire segment around it.
Hannity has been doing this for years.
None of us know diddly about the driver in C'ville. Was this a premeditated and planned attack or impulsive? What was he doing behind the wheel in the middle of a planned protest?
it's far more likely he was inspired by attacks in France and the UK than an Isis terrorist was by him.
