Know when they use cars to hit crowds of people? In terrorist attacks. That's when some guy with a sick ideology rams a car into a crowd of innocent people and tries to kill as many as possible.

So how was this not a terrorist act? You hear cons talk a lot about condemning terrorist attacks in Europe...why not call it what it was Charlottesville? That was extremely right-wing TERRORISM, plain and simple.
The driver of the car was a Nazi, not alt right.

People have drawn such lines in the sand over dumb political affiliation that rational thought has gone out the window

Keep talking about ( doesn't exist), it won't matter. Just like some of Trumps supporters would back him if he committed murder, ( doesn't exist ) has some of the same support on the left. Since they don't exist, it really makes it difficult to report anything on them.

No idea who or what Fields was. But take a look on the AltRight website (Spencer's). Read the recruiting crap for the Unite the Right rally. Look closely at the Nazi-symbolized poster. Now tell me again that the AltRight is not Nazi/KKK.

If there is a "better" AltRight around I'm all ears.

Yes. When people are dying over effing statues and old ladies being knocked down for holding the American flag, we are definitely among people without a fricking rational marble left in their head.

And liberals are even less enraged about the assassination attempt of Steve Scalise and the call for Trump's assassination by a sitting state Democrat elected politician.

You clearly aren't "liberal" at least in the classic definition, if you oppose free travel of citizens in their country and think 1st amendment rights have blue state exceptions where violence is acceptable. Red and blue voters live everywhere and are free to travel.

You are repressive and a threat to democracy.

Hillary showed up to Ottawa County Michigan, the deepest red county in the state for decades. No riots. No violence. A couple pro-life people holdi g signs at a distance. Is there a single blue county where Trump could arrive without violent leftists assaulting property or people?

And then people like Cassy blame Trump for the violence.

Nope.

The DA in Virginia has been collecting and examining the evidence. So far, no evidence whatsoever that it was a terrorist act. The charge is Murder Two instead of Murder One (which in Virginia is charged for a murder that results from a terrorist act).

So... There's that.
