Car ploughs through protesters at Charlottesville Alt-Right rally

[McFuu]

Fighting for the rights of a slaver? What?

You really don't know anything about Robert E Lee. The subject of tearing down his statue is comical to me, considering how much he has done for America, both before and after the Civil War.

[Elba]

Unless the guy needed to defend himself against the other guy, he had no right to hit him.

Legally maybe. Morally 100%.

[Doctor Amadeus]

Not sure how you jumped to that. Again, only speaking about the photo and the two involved. Nothing more.

Yeah but you are smarter than that, and I know for a fact you have the mental capability to separate that shit. It be the same as someone standing outside your place of work on public property advocating killing people you love just because they happen to be born the wrong color, gender or whatever the hell else.

[ohiostate124]

You equate an act of terrorism with someone throwing a punch? You sicken me. Both may be wrong, but one is more wrong by several magnitudes of scale.

Lolwut? Did I say they were equal? They can both be wrong.

[Deleted]

You still don't have the right to assault them.

Nor them have the right to promote the death of millions of human beings.

That's why, once again, the authorities should deal with both.

[Enthusiastic Steward]

Unless the guy needed to defend himself against the other guy, he had no right to hit him.

Problem being from a single still image you have no idea whether this was the case or not, so passing judgement on it should be moot.

[Darkeon]

Which is exactly what I said not even a page ago?

Again, glad we sorted that out~

Punching people in the face - until said people actually do something bad - should not be an acceptable behavior.

[Elba]

No, you don't. It's assault. It doesn't get a pass because they believe in hate.

Punching Nazis isn't assault. It's being American. USA. USA. USA.

[TheRickyB]

Eh no that isn't how that works, Nazism isn't just a well we are protesting because we prefer different flavor Ice Cream, are you seriously this ignorant as to what the Nazi Ideology represents or you simply don't give a shit, pick one.


Antifa and Nazi's one of these has an actual history of trying to exterminate successfully an entire race.

Except the "antifa" of today are communists/Socialists (they wear it LOUD and Proud) and if we're gonna play whos got the Biggest KDA: Nazi's or Commies, its not gonna be a game you'd like to play.

Being a Nazi is something bad. Throwing up that salute? Very bad.

[Deleted]

You really don't know anything about Robert E Lee. The subject of tearing down his statue is comical to me, considering how much he has done for America, both before and after the Civil War.

And yet, the main reason of the decision to take the statue down was because his pro-slavery days.

[Spectral]

Don't suddenly feign like you actually like the United States. No one's buying it.

[Darkeon]

Ok, person-that-supports-violence~

[Doctor Amadeus]

And one is mostly gone and the other is out in full force, having their actions downplayed by the mainstream media.

Fight the power, mate. Join the resistance.

Fight the power, I got off my ass and voted, I donate money if I can't my time or mind, and when I can Ill freely do that too. I can handle confused kids in skinny jeans protesting a campus or simply avoid it all together.

I am not going to ignore a fucked up ideology trying to get fucking cozy in the country I live where my relatives fought and died to put these sick fuckers in the ground long with their hallow bullshit about their superior genes

[Bullettime]

Exactly. I drove through the area at 9 AM when people were hitting the street before staying at a small town right outside and listening to scanners and local reports. Even at 9 in the fucking morning, there were white supremacists standing outside of businesses, having confrontations with locals, throwing rocks, urine, etc at people and vehicles, etc and in high frequency.

So yeah, while some people see the picture and think "both sides are wrong!" and if the punch was thrown without being actually threatened, I'll agree in this case. But some of us actually saw a completely different and more complete story. You see a picture of a guy getting punched in the face unwarranted. We saw the same guy getting punched throw a brick at someone 5 seconds before or get in a black bystanders face and tell him they're going in the oven.

[Zecora]

Lolwut? Did I say they were equal? They can both be wrong.

Okay, let's hear you say it. "The nazi shithole who drove that car into peaceful protestors should get the maximum penalty for terrorism".

I'll even go first: The guy who punched another in that photo should be prosequted for assult.

[Jeezy911]

Nothing peaceful about being a Nazi.

Nothing cool about being a SJW either. Probably the worst group to be a part of.

[Zecora]

Except the "antifa" of today are communists/Socialists (they wear it LOUD and Proud) and if we're gonna play whos got the Biggest KDA: Nazi's or Commies, its not gonna be a game you'd like to play.

That's a fine game to play. You'll automatically lose of course, unless you confuse Stalinism and Maoism with Communism. Which, if you have no actual schooling, you probably do.

[Majestic12]

Well considering I posted comments about them specifically in my post apparently you missed reading.

So then you just deny what you see happening. That's worse.

Are you planning on doing the same thing to the ANTIFA commies? I mean... your "relatives fought and died to put these sick fuckers in the ground long with their hallow bullshit" as well..
As long as you are A-Okay with violence towards all and any sides - kudos for you. While not someone whose ideology matches mine, at least I won't tag you as an hypocrite :P
