I've been calling this for months. In fact, I predicted this would happen shortly after Trump won. It's not going to go away until Trump is out of office. It will only escalate. Look for bigger incidents as time goes on.
And I'm afraid then they might keep going even after Trump left the office.

There ya go. If you read Wikileaks and know how vindictive some people are, and what lengths they'll go to in order to cause disruption, you'd have seen this coming, right?

That's a good point. I think your fears may be justified. There's an agenda - and I think that's why the Democratic party has been hijacked - and they're not going to quit until their mission is complete.

All of this bigger stuff is being orchestrated, not by the 'left' or 'Democrats' or 'Progressives' but a small, powerful circle of moneyed people who happen to be Dems.

At least THIS violent idjit won't get off based on his low intellect/sad childhood/mental illness being an "excuse" as so many violent criminals do. I hope they leave him in gen pop but will prob put him in protective custody with the pedos so the inmates don't rip him apart.

I see it as an impulsive deed done by a childish, no impulse control fool, hoping to impress his WN pals, by his derring-do.

The media showed his dreary, low rent apartment bulding; yet he had a 40K sportscar. That tells you he makes BAD decisions and has ego issues and is dying to impress people (girls?) He isn't exactly dashing either. Lameass in a tacky rental but with a showy car, please. He is NOT a "planner".

Or he was someone's patsy.
I disagree, and since neither of us can get into his head, who knows who's right? One thing we do know is that he deliberately drove into a street full of people. Now I don't know about you, but I wouldn't do that.

Maybe this will help:

"The following offenses shall constitute capital murder, punishable as a Class 1 felony:

...The willful, deliberate, and premeditated killing of any person by another in the commission of or attempted commission of an act of terrorism"

You didn't answer the question. So I take it, no law degree, no membership in the Virginia bar. Not a question.

Doesn't matter what I think. What matters is what the DA charges. No Murder One = insufficient evidence to prove it was an act of terrorism.

I know a lot of people aren't going to like that, but truth matters.

...
The US went through two administrations over a 16 year period that diverted our attention from own problems to mostly problems in and to the Middle East. This situation was not a if but a when. The citizens (L and R) of the US have been waiting long enough where the pressure was growing. Charlottesville was the first large release of many pressure releases to come. Many people think the Republicans voted for Trump when in actually they were voting for Not Hillary. Everyone knew Trump did not have the ability to be a true POTUS. But as he was saying what was on his mind, everyone wanted to do the same thing. With Trump we knew that release was coming. With Clinton we thought we were going to deal with another 4-8 years of Middle East issues.

Who's this "we", Kemosabe? I didn't vote for Trump! It was obvious to me his rantings on the campaign trail, including talk of his penis size, were like the ravings at a bar where a bunch of drunks are "solving the world's problems". It was also obvious to me that he was totally incompetent to do this job. He would have never hired anyone as inexperienced as himself to run a company; why did he think he could be POTUS when he'd never been elected dog catcher, never had any type of political job?

He has been a destablizing force in the entire world with all this "drama, drama" of his. It's not just me that thinks so; I read the same in Time Magazine last night, though I've been thinking that for months now.

You've now figured out that you are still going to deal with another 4-8 year of ME issues, yes?
