Vice news report on Charlottesville, must-see (up on YT)

I'm surprised more people aren't talking about the woman at 13:34. That's what stuck out to me about the video the most, the woman shrieking when she internalizes the fact that someone made a deliberate hit-and-run attack on her life.

If the attack that produced that reaction isn't terrorism, what is?

One little warrant out for Christopher Cantwell's arrest, and he turns into a pussified crybaby.

That was pretty amazing, also

This left me speechless, and parts made me cry. I've said it before; the election of Trump marked the beginning of the end of America. The US will never recover from this.

You are acting as if this is new. This is what America has always been, and probably always will be until somehow the demographics shift in total. If anything, it's a cyclical flare-up.

I've been putting off watching this but man, 3:00 minutes into this I'm just sickened. I fucking hate these people.

Thank you, VICE news. This is really a important thing that captures what happened this year. It's still mind blowing to me that we are experiencing this in 2017.

I know I should probably give it a watch but I don't think I can stomach it due to the disgusting political environment we're in right now.

It's a very hard watch. Wait until you feel a little more stable... but do try to come back and watch it at some point.

I was a mess for about an hour and a half afterwards, but as soon as Trump started claiming that the marchers on Friday had some good peeps amongst them, I knew I would need to see for myself just how wrong he was.

He was very very very wrong.

The only thing Trump did is give them the okay to come out of the shadows. They were always there.

Watch it and spread it.

Any "moderate" trying to throw a "both sides" argument around is going to have a hard time defending that stance after that Vice video.

Honestly I think it could be a platform they built to die on.

Oh fuck that shit so hard. Not even funny, fucking amazing how all these types work together. Play the victim so hard.

"I'm armed, just so you know. I'm so scared I'm so scared you're going to kill me".

White supremacist scared a cop is going to kill them. How fucking backwards and obvious can you be. Ans he put out his phone number because wants people to call him and threaten him so he can victimize himself more. I'm not even sure he has a warrant for his arrest, he may just want to play the victim for a little while.

Fucking fucking piece of shit. Makes me so god damn mad. These people are unfuckingbelievable pieces of work.

Yes, he's playing a victim. You can bet he's recording everyone that calls this number, and he's going to use anything they say against them. Google his podcast "Radical Agenda".

Here is some alt-right podcast interviewing him on the 15th and Christopher Cantwell is back to shit talking:

It's like listening to a strange alternate dimension.

There are at least 2 scenes in the documentary which showed exactly why I think it is crazy that many US citizens defend their right to own weapons.

There was really a guy threatening the police that he will send 200 armed people to a place if they are not going to do what he wants. The other one was the bald cunt showing off his weapons.
These fucking police. How the fuck does that happen and you don't immediately lay the law down on them. Insane.
 
I'm talking about emotional stability here, not mental coherence. He does know what he's doing. He's also a bipolar lunatic from the looks of it, with lots of guns.

There's nothing wrong with him except for his views.

Real life and the consequences of his actions just came knocking real hard and real fast so now he's scared.

Trying to hand wave away those type of situation from armchair psychoanalyst is getting tiresome.

Has this been posted? These guys are literal jokes and simply seeking attention. Something is not right in their heads and these are the type of people this group is attracting.

Exact same guy whining about the warrant for his arrest.
Just fatter and younger
 
"Why can't we kill our enemies peacefully, we had a permit ffs!!1"

Wow, so many pieces of shit walking around there, fucking unbelievable and of course they're allowed to carry around tons of weapons. Thanks to Trump and his cronies this will not get any better in the near future.

Is Chris Cantwell even for real? I mean this is a joke. Is the Nazi thing a joke? Wtf is even going on here?

The Free Keene Squad?
 
Funny how fast his facade crumbles.

Hi Jeff-DSA! :)

The façade crumbles because these guys are used to being inside their bubble of influence where they can scream at the wind (and puff out their chests and faux machismo) with zero pushback/consequences.

His peacocking in the hotel room with the guns was a dead giveaway in how fake he was. The real, scary White supremacists that are about all that stuff he was yapping about, aren't trying to be on camera, showboating like that.
 
This really shows that the left needs to arm themselves and be equally or better prepared for war.

With Trump as president, civil war is inevitable. This time it won't be between something as clearly defined as States, but between ideologies.
 
Sorry if I'm being ignorant here but I'm not totally clued-up on what's been going on in the US being a Brit and all but can someone explain to me why Trump is getting shit for what happened in Charlottesville ?

Is it because he didn't condemn the white supremacists/Nazi's straight away or ?
