In reply to the discussion: 20-Year Old Deandre Harris Speaks Out About Being Assaulted by White Supremacists in Charlottesville [View all]RestoreAmerica2020
(3,434 posts)[where a woman was murdered, 19 people were injured, where a white-racist-kkk-nazi-christian terrorist group gathered donning hate symbols on flags and clothing such as the confederate cross, swastika, the othala rune* while shouting racist epitaphs].... is akin to having a rat set his own trap.
It's white-american-christian terrorism! If there is a thorogh investigation, which is unlikely, he''ll [sessions] deem it as a lone wolf attack, 20 yr old kid that was angry, that just went to a trumpf rally, besides anti-racist protestersgot in the way, or some usual re pub deflection..pretty much what we've heard already from trumpf himself blaming both sides--not the side wth racist symbols, shouting hate against all of us; not the side that was armed and prepared, to what kill? And, not the side whose member used a vehicle as a weapon to murder and injure...that's the side that needed to be called out, yet are we really surprised he failed to lead! He can't even send a decent condolence to the family who lost a loved one, those hurt--what an evil racist man.
By eltumpf NOT calling the attack white terrorism, he has given the white-racist-kkk-nazi-christian-terrorists permission to continue their terror tactics and they will! Folks it's going to get worse before it gets better! If there is a thorough investigation which is highly unlikely, yet if at best an inquiry... then it should begin with trumpf, the bannonites (as Joy Reid apt reference on meet the press this morning ) and all the racist- bigot white-supremacists he has surrounded himself. Frankly, it is not a coincidence that he selected jeff sessions and pence...both probably have white hood and robe; make nightly strolls somewhere. The so-called investigation should all include members of republican congress as to any connection to, involvement wth white-racist-kkknazi-christian terrorist. Eltrumpf, his staff, re pubs are an embarrassment to our America!
*Note: A very interesting article pertaining to hate symbols that adorn white terrorist groups can be found on (sorry couldn't copy link) CNN.com: Five Symbols of Hate by Willingham/Witus 2/22/17. Also, Anti-defamation League (ADL) provides an extensive list of hate symbols, slogans used by nazikkkhate groups as does the Southern Poverty Center.
