Did the Charlottesville Mayor Order Police to Stand Down, to Allow His Allies in #Antifa to Rough Up the Nazis?

The Nazis had a permit; antifa did not. (Say what you will about Nazis, but they're bears for paperwork.)

Antifa raided the permitted Nazi rally space.

Police let them -- and let beatings go on. They gave them Space to Destroy, as they say.

I hope Sessions will be looking into this aspect as well.

Antifa was, of course, violent. As usual. As the police always permit them to be.


Even a NYT report noticed:


She was, of course, later Crowd Pressured to backtrack a bit:


I'm tired of #LeftWingPrivilege for violence.

This seems to be a part of the law that these career lawyers wouldn't want to address since a number of them are partisan in nature (I'm thinking of one such lawyer right now who was the subject of an article several months back - he took pride in being able to thwart the commands of the GOP political appointees who were overseeing him).

But if the cops withdraw, then the Democrats can beat up the protesters. The media can then spin this as the protesters being the violent ones rather than the Democrats.

Masked thugs were there and tried to attack the rally and the police, but the police were prepared and kept both groups separated the whole time. There was one arrest, a lefty who tried to get through the line of cops and was calling for his buddies to attack the cops.

then the stealth antifa protesters bused in at the last minute.

Body count. The news media thrives on body count. If anyone had a heart attack, that would have been added to the body count. Traffic accident, slip and fall, anything. Police fatalities make it even better.

103 A few other things: on my scale, National Socialists and Communists are both on the totalitarian end of the political scale. They hate each other because they are so much alike, with only superficial differences. Both are identity politics obsessed totalitarians.

This reporter is a pure imbecile. "They were standing up to hate." I guess it takes two wrongs to make a right, eh? I guess hate isn't hate when you engage of hate of hate. Kinda along the same lines of the "I'm very tolerant, and if you don't agree with me, I will destroy you" ideal that the left has gone all in for as of late.

105 81 81 Who is organizing and bankrolling Antifa? Yes, yes, I know: Soros and company, but who or what specifically? Their near-immediate response times and tactical approach speak to guided leadership and careful orchestration, not spontaneity.

Are there paid staffers somewhere looking over demonstration permits in various mid-sized to large cities and determining which would make for a favorable media opportunity? If so, who writes the checks?
Posted by: troyriser at August 14, 2017 03:14 PM (Fw5cQ)

107 I can't speak to this particular response, or to LE, but as far as military response/assistance to civilian authorities, you are very limited in what you can do (are capable of), and will generally be limited by manpower and equipment.

History is good -- for those who learn from it. But both sides need to be represented or else it's blatant USSR level propaganda.

183 I think Charlottesville "Vice Mayor" Wes Bellamy (of anti-white tweets) may have a large hand in this. Apparently he may have been the official who tried to pull the permit for the rally, requiring the organizers to resort to the Federal Court to enjoin cancelling the rally. Then, on cue, armed and masked Antifa/BLM were able to approach the permitted rally and engage violently, "justifying" the declaration of a "state of emergency" and break up of the rally, and disbursing the rally attenders into waiting Antifa/BLM.

My surmise is that this was cooked up between the Governor and the Mayor/Vice-mayor due to both the local PD and the VSP standing down.

186 just want to point out that the leftwing media's done more handwringing over (I assume we're calling them nazis now) nazis doing a march than:

a fat union thug, on purpose, like a terrorist, staking out politicians to assassinate.

at least a half dozen muz, preplanned - with forethought - acts of vehicular terrorism.

I don't know if this nazi guy planned to run over people or what but he probably did it spur of the moment. It wasn't a preplanned move. And he didn't shoot down that copter, did he?

If no...then our side needs to:

1. stop apologizing. This is america, some white suckers can march if they want to.

2. point back at the left.

The painted the Tea Party as racists. For years any time there was a shooter they would label him a tea partyer until his true identity was determined, all to build the narrative that TP = violent radicals.

Then Obama started blaming citizens after each domestic terror attack - that somehow the 'culture of intolerance and bigotry' caused the San Bernardino shooting, the Pulse shooting, etc. And the imaginary backlash, oh how we were lectured about the hatred in our hearts yearning to backlash (that never happened),

Next, they did this with Trump supporters. They were magically responsible for being violently attacked outside of Trump rallies.

Bottom line: Any non-progressives who speak out are used to discredit our side. So then you get tools in Charlottesville willing to punch back twice as hard.

I want to see a line of journalists, farmers, doctors, mechanics; gun-haters and open-carriers; pro-abortion and anti-abortion; atheists, christians, muslims, everyone. Arm in arm, no placards, no chanting, just standing against the thugs in the street and the anarchy and barbarism they represent.

The politicians and bagmen like Soros want this violence. The average person does not.

How do we turn to our neighbor, who on any other day we disagree with, and say "if that garbage happens here, and we have to pick a side, I'm marching with YOU. Not the Marxists. Not the Fascists." How do we get to that point?

City council, members are elected officials. Four year terms, staggered. "Citizens" providing objecting input seemed to come from other states.

That's probably true.

But think about it this way. If you were a professional agitator, and you were trying to infiltrate and discredit our side, who would you invite to this rally? (Nazis, KKK, White Supremacists, right?)

And then what would you call the rally? (Something that makes it sound like normal conservatives are on board with the most racist assholes you invited, right?)

I'm not saying this is what happened, but it's so helpful to the other side, it might as well have been.

for the Cleveland GOP convention. Cops did a great job. No serious problems. a few scuffles. They had the manpower and were prepared.

If they want to keep people safe, they can. They have to commit to it and it costs money. If they don't want to protect, they don't have to do it. Oddly enough, that's the law.

I was thinking this was going to be a bad summer. So we had the mass assassination attempt and then it was pretty quiet. Was wondering if the Soros goons were going to get in another flurry before the summer ended. Looks like Soros had some timing problems with that freelance attack but he's still got a couple of weeks to get the riots going.

Don't kid yourself, the Unite the Right guys knew they were heading to a fight. No, not everyone and that's the problem. If this was a bunch of Baptist Ministers or the Daughters of the Confederacy that would be one thing. This is a group that is trying to unite with us and have us linked and I don't want them.

Counterargument: if we call out those people helping as as convenient, we enable the media Kafkatrap that enables the claim that we have a reason to distance ourselves. The same does not apply to Islamic terror, because it is absofuckinlutely Islamic in nature, in a way that White Power marches are not conservative.

Further, I don't give a shit about who condemns violence or doesn't. What I care about is results. Islamic nation states have the ability to clamp down on their Bad Children and do not, whereas we on the right have literally no control over the Funky Haircut Dudes.

Add to this that any disavowals produced from Islam by request are taqiyya anyway for the most part, and the Left will bludgeon us with them (as sincere!) just as much as bludgeoning anything we say as insincere, fuck that thing in particular. Heads we win, tails you lose? Homey don't play that.

Posted by: Mx4 at August 14, 2017 03:52 PM (vVFg7)


Perhaps when they decided that the local police weren't up to the task. Then, upon further reflection decided to throw the state police into the mix. Then, upon further reflection decided to throw the National Guard into the mix.

Then told the various Law Enforcement types to stand around with their hands in their pockets. And btw permitted protesters, exit over there -- where the antifa are waiting to set you ablaze.

321 Cville morn here:
Following the KKK rally just a few weeks ago Mayor Mike Signer was heavily criticized for allowing the police to fire tear gas into the crowd of mostly-peaceful anti-racist protestors. Somehow these protestors made the KKK look reasonable and level-headed by comparison.
It seems the mayor is mostly interested in his book and appeasing his very left-wing co-city council and his Black supremacist co-city councilor, namely Kristen Szakos and Wes Bellamy.
Bellamy has a slew of highly racist and misogynist tweets from just 2 years. These were discovered by Jason Kessler, the organizer of the rally in town and his initial claim to fame.
The mayor has done his best to not really take a strong stance on any issue. Meanwhile city council meetings regularly devolve into a circus with attendees being allowed to chant "fuck white supremacy" when white speakers take the podium. Or black attendees being allowed to approach the councilor's bench while other citizens are speaking and ask city council to share some of their watermelon. Yes, the city councilo was trolling the citizenry by pantomiming stereotypes during the remarks portion of the meeting.
Seeing as how these are routinely allowed, one could absolutely believe that the mayor leaned on the chief of police to be more respectful of protestors this time.

The establishment created this wonderful multicultural society and now everyone is running to divide the spoils. It's just starting to get bad because whites are beginning to realize what has happened. Multicultural societies vote along ethnic and religious lines. And you know, Muslims have a vested interest in not calling out their scumbags. You're going to find that it's going to be harder to call out our own.

In fairness, it often gets used anymore to mean white trash, which is not quite in sync with its origins in regard to a specific '90s cultural phenomenon. Specifically, the young male in a crisis of identity who has become transblack in a manner like that depicted in Pretty Fly For A White Guy. Kind of the mirror image of a Dylan Roof type - introverted self-hatred instead of extroverted, going from "my race sucks" to "and yours is better so I'll try to adopt it" rather than "but yours is worse".

The less specific usage puts it more in sync with the original slur, and is less ironic.

There needs to be a better word for that, though. The inverse mild slurs being things like "Oreo", "Twinkie", "banana", etc.

One thing is clear: we on the rational Right need to have boots on the ground, discreetly monitoring events, recording audio, taking photos, taking video, in the manner that zombie does so well. Not participating in the violence, but documenting as much as possible.

369 Addressing some earlier posts, the police did indeed push the nazis/white nationalists/whatever down a narrow set of steps directly into a mob of violent antifa. I saw the video myself this morning.

Can't find the link now, but it was timestamped and I saw it myself how it went down. Not speculation in the slightest. At one point, I saw one protestor being pushed down that little path of stairs straight into a crowd of antifa, by himself, and heard antifa types yelling stuff like "where you gonna go now, bitch!" Guy was trapped between a police line and antifa with nowhere to go. And he was alone at that point. Not sure what happened to him as the camera operator ran off to film something else at that point.

I know this is hearsay since I'm only reporting what I saw without a link, but the video is out there and I'm sure someone with more time on their hands can find the video and timestamp.

Not one myself to defend nazis and other idiots of that sort, but the facts are the facts. Even if you can dismiss the two-time Obama voter who organized this rally, the city's response appears to have been designed to cause violence, which would then be blamed entirely on the nazis, which would then be blamed entirely on every human in this country to the right of Nicolas Maduro.

I wouldn't go that far -- it's not that they become what you say they are; it's that they stop caring about distancing themselves from who you say they are.

For instance, as a somewhat self-described Cosmopolitan who has good friends around the world of multiple different races and religions, I'm really not a fan of any kind of racial supremacy.

But whereas maybe a decade ago I'd be eager to denounce stuff like the C'ville march, now I'm like it's really not worth it, since I can guarantee that any sort of speaking up is going to just paint a target on my back for assholes to try to pigeonhole me by progressive goalpost-moving, esp. when they're being super-racist by holding different standards for different races (cf. Trayvon riots/doxxing, omitting 9/11 and Pulse murders, selective backlash apprehension, etc.)

I mean, if someone's not going to take me for my word that I'm not a racist asshole, then why should I trust that their inquisitions are so pure and holy?

382 When ANTIFA shows up in cities/states controlled by Democrats they are free to act, but when they show up in cities/states controlled by Republicans you get peaceful demonstrations. Pikeville KY, at Auburn in Alabama are two examples just off the top of my head.

Also, I've stopped caring about distancing myself from these people because of the following calculation:

1) The secular Left has several of orders of magnitude more power in this country than the white supremacists.

2) Regardless of what I say, the secular Left will eventually treat me as an enemy and come after me and what I care about. Previous alliances will avail me nothing if I don't stick to the new progressive line (cf. boiling the frog)

3) The Left knows this, and so it attempts to create chaotic momentum by targeting groups that "everyone hates", like Nazis and justifying the deprivation of rights etc. on this basis.

4) Since they will eventually get around to labeling me as a Nazi (or 1%-er or misogynist or racist or whatever), the best way I can counter this is to ensure that the Left doesn't build that kind of momentum.

5) That means supporting the rights of these unsavory groups, which in this crazy Leftist media echo-chamber basically amounts to not giving my voice to the Left to help twist into their own momentum.

384 I wouldn't go that far -- it's not that they become
what you say they are; it's that they stop caring about distancing
themselves from who you say they are.

It depends. The GOP has been dancing around black crime and violence for decades. Combine that knowledge with constant false claims of racism and some people just decide to quit caring and say that blacks are violent and prone to crime because they're black. If that person is going to be accused of bad think, then he might as well go ahead and engage in the bad think that's right there staring him in the face.

385 Just my take. As distasteful as the white supremacists are, they're the ones went through the motions of abiding by the law. The antifa didn't. They are the ones getting into everyone's faces, not the ones permitted to march.

The supremacist's have just as much right to the 1st Amendment as anyone else. I don't like their message but there it is.

386 Why is no one mentioning that only a few months ago North Carolina passed a specific law immunizing motorists from liability for striking pedestrian protesters who are blocking their way.

Once again, I don't know all the facts about Charlotte, but it seems relevant that there was specific, very public discussion and law changes in North Carolina due to past Charlotte protests. This is in addition to whatever grounds for self defense may exist at common law, depending on reasonableness of threat perception, imminence, etc.

388 But I'm not going to assist them in labeling me for any purpose. If we don't disavow scum who want to claim membership in our group that is what we are doing. We always say the left is complicit with BLM and antifa and the like because they never disavow them. How would we be different if we don't do it the fringe elements who want to represent us?

This is a very fair point, imho.

But my concern is that the standards are so lopsided that it amounts to giving your enemy the sword to plunge into you.

There's all the difference in the world to the fact that many on the non-fringe Left ARE in sympathy with their fringe in a way that the non-fringe Right is not with its own.

Richard Spenser is out there getting arrested, getting pepper sprayed and getting beaten up. What's Jonah Goldberg doing? If there are foxholes in the future I want Spenser on my side, and to hell with Jonah Goldberg. There are foxholes in the future.

391 Got it, thank you (extra "ville").

But it is interesting that some states have specifically immunized motorists due to what has been a real issue of threats to motorists from protesters blocking roads.

And, as noted, the law of self defense (while varying from state to state) always makes some allowance for a reasonable perception of serious harm or death.

The overall point is that a car being trapped by protestors who may in fact be violent to the car's passengers is a real "thing" and a real problem, that is now being treated like an unthinkable thing due to a sympathetic victim and an unsympathetic driver.

And again: I wasn't there, but all these things seem much more plausible and dependent on getting more facts than 99.999% of media accounts seem to suggest.

392 >>>But it is interesting that some states have specifically immunized motorists due to what has been a real issue of threats to motorists from protesters blocking roads

It's still limited, it's not a license to run people over. You still have to exercise "due care" and not have "wanton disregard". It's only protection against unintentional strikes, not flooring it into a crowd.

As a major point of evidence I cite Liberal/Progressive opinions on the Trayvon Martin case, where even saying "look, it's a very regrettable situation, but there's so much we don't know about what actually happened that I don't feel comfortable having a strong opinion on either side," is enough to get you called a crazy racist. The mainstream Left supports/agrees with the BLM position in a way that I don't think parallels any relationship between the mainstream Right and its fringe militants.

...though that may be changing due to the constant drumbeat of tribal politics (cf. #384)

What has really amazed me about this fiasco was how quickly the MFM tracked down one of this guy's former High School teachers to proclaim that he was a Nazi and a fan of Adolf Hitler. This dipshit runs down some opposing protestors and it's "Domestic Terrorism(tm)" but some Berniebro shoots a ball field full of Republicans and it's just a little unpleasantness of no significance.

Yeah, but I don't think Richard Spencer and I are on the same side because there are too many differences in fundamental values, such that I'm concerned that if Spencer got into power he'd be just as likely to persecute me and people I care about as the Left is. Cf. asking the alligator to eat you last.

If anything, my "side" is in favor of toleration under the rule of law, which is precisely what the government failed to implement in C'ville. Overall, I think Spencer and his people were originally in the right with respect to what I care about, but that opinion doesn't mean that I support/agree with them any more than my toleration of an Antifa rally with valid permit would mean agreement with them.

I see what you mean, and I fear you are correct.

But the lack of viability of my preferred option doesn't mean that I have to agree with/affirm all the principles of the people I may have to tolerate or conditionally ally with.

But I think it's best to be honest about the strongly conditional basis and limited extent of that toleration/alliance.

A main part of this is my belief that the reason we're in such a cultural clusterfark is that the powers that be have been consistently deceptive about their true values.

Let them beat each other's brains out.

The REAL crime here was how the Virginia government trounced the 1st amendment and fed one side to the other just to spite the constitution.

Some of those people probably weren't in the klan.

Whoever was in charge of that clown show is not fit.

This republic is becoming unstable, and that is purely the fault of the establishment.
