Charlottesville just declared it an "Unlawful gathering", so perhaps that means the police will actually start doing something

From the videos above, most of them seem to have gotten the memo. This gathering was primarily made up of people who had recently played on a lacrosse or football team, probably.

Melanie Trump tweeted a tepid condemnation of...something the Nazis (of course she didn't call them that). Still no word from Trump.
Our country encourages freedom of speech, but let's communicate w/o hate in our hearts. No good comes from violence. #Charlottesville— Melania Trump (@FLOTUS) August 12, 2017

yeah could just be a similarly looking white dude w/ a part in his hair. he really was live on twitter half hour ago after the rumors started. and inside and talking about how no one should be outside protesting bc it's too dangerous.

here's raw footage of it happening, for those who want to see it.
― Karl Malone, Saturday, 12 August 2017 18:17 (six years ago) link
you can see a couple cars slowly making their way through a large group of counter-protesters, and then suddenly another car slams into the back of the cars, then immediately goes into reverse and leaves the scene.
― Karl Malone, Saturday, 12 August 2017 18:19 (six years ago) link
I didn't want to watch it, but I watched because I feel like I needed to.

Not confirmed yet but hoping the police got them

i don't know what that is, other than the blatant attempted murder of dozens of people

I hope there's a crowd sourced effort to document faces and identifying info for every fucking tiki-torch neo-Nazi. Let them regret this for the rest of their lives.

msnbc still reporting that they don't know if it was intentional or not. another graphic video, but this shows beyond a shadow of doubt that it was. it's a video from behind the car that did it, and you can hear the tires squeal as they slam on the gas toward the protesters. you can hear screaming, and then a few seconds the car flies backward through the same alley at a crazy speed.
― Karl Malone, Saturday, 12 August 2017 18:40 (six years ago) link
I want to know who they are and where they came from. It looks like they are straight up self declared white suprematists, not just dickface provocateurs like Trump or Bannon who court this stuff but avoid directly fulminating against the Jews or whatever.
Very scary.
― Treeship, Saturday, 12 August 2017 18:42 (six years ago) link
Is someone can get away with doing something like that in broad daylight in a crowd of self-documenting protestors, then nothing works any more.
― Josh in Chicago, Saturday, 12 August 2017 18:43 (six years ago) link
jfc MSNBC is a garbage news organization
they STILL can't report this straight. they're still confused about what happened
― Karl Malone, Saturday, 12 August 2017 18:44 (six years ago) link
I'm sure they'll catch this guy and book him for attempted mass murder.
― Treeship, Saturday, 12 August 2017 18:44 (six years ago) link
i don't think they'll get away, they're driving a totaled Dodge Charger around
He was already arrested.

now msnbc has finally obtained a video of the actual crash, and they're showing it on a loop, just over and over. i haven't watched msnbc report live news in a long time, i didn't realize they were this fucking terrible

BTW, confirmation via this reporter's feed:

...that car and driver are being held, and witness statements being taken.
Sadly, it appears (via the mayor and other statements) that there has been at least one fatality.
