We also shouldn't play identity politics by equating every gun owner or white man with them, identity politics just causes more problems.
    I had a Trump voter staying at my house all week...he condemned the Nazis but then blamed the media. Trumpers are a scary bunch.

I can't believe people think that a better alternative is just assembling your own mob and wading in.
      So a bunch of Rednecks with small dicks and automatic weapons cant handle when a bunch Liberal Elitists and Der Darky Friends tell them they are wrong so they go violent? Pretty easy to see who is to blame for what happened and it isnt the Anti-Protesters.

      But yeah when people are protecting statues of traitors and wearing uniforms of Facists who millions died defeating we should just ignore it cause it will just go away. How did that work in the South post Civil War?

      Where was all "turn the other cheek" stuff at Standing Rock? Can I victim blame the cops and the oil company?

            Walking through the break room, someone had the TV in there tuned to Fox News. Their graphics had written that Trump was branding the KKK, Neo-Nazis, and white supremacists as criminals, thugs. It only took him until today to actually denounce them. The funny part is that there went his reelection bid.

              This didn't feel like a situation where you had the right wing mob start to attack some bystander in the wrong place at the wrong time, and another mob of people came together to protect the victim and fight back. This felt like an anti-Trump mob, a group angry, bitter and frustrated with an election nine months ago, spoiling for a fight, and as you noted in your post, now feeling a whole lot better about themselves for extracting their pound of flesh even at the cost of some poor girl's life.
              Go incognito and do a little fact checking. You might be surprised. Probably not in a good way.

                The cops were ordered to stand down. There's video of it. Just look up Millie Weaver's reports from this past weekend.

                  Whether or not those attacked were there on purpose is immaterial. And does one really need to be angry about the election to abhor white supremacy, want it squashed from gaining a foothold in this country? I'd love to believe you're simply playing Devil's Advocate but your posting history gives that away.

                    Trump's threat of Venezuela military action could bolster Maduro

                    It won't belong before every tinpot despot rattles their saber.

                    "Maduro could not have asked for a greater gift from Trump," said David Smilde, senior fellow at the Washington Office on Latin America, a human rights think tank. "He provided substance for Maduro's heretofore implausible conspiracy theories."

                    "It has threatened to deflate the emerging regional consensus regarding Venezuela," Smilde said. "Today the countries that on Tuesday signed on to a strong statement criticizing Maduro's authoritarian direction are spending their time criticizing Trump's statements."

                      I'm sure the people of Venezuela would like to keep starving just to stick it to Trump.

                          I'm sure you know absolutely nothing about what the people of Venezuela are thinking, despite whatever anecdotes from the oil company expats you claim to know down there.

                              I don't think him saying it two days later after public outcry is going to ruin his reelection bid. If he had done it right away? Probably. But, not now. Now it's barely news.
