Odd. He appears to be wearing the uniform.

View Quote

Polo shirts and chinos are kind of an "alt right" uniform for these events. There were guys with wacky whitey symbols on their polo shirts in other pictures. But yeah maybe he knew the guys and was hooking up with people he met off the net.

Quote History

Quoted:

If you were just driving down the road and suddenly you heard a loud smack on your car then sure.

If you'd already been attacked one or more times previously and were understandably on edge because of that, it might affect your reaction a bit.

His actions were not consistent with a deliberate attack, he could have inflicted far more severe casualties but he didn't. So either he's the world's worst terrorist, which seems to be the media's opinion, or he wasn't actually aiming to kill people.

View Quote

Getting boinked on the bumper with a stick doesn't justify going batshit full speed ahead into a crowd of people. If he was surrounded and getting his car smashed, or someone was shooting at him, and he just stomped on the gas in a panic and ran over a bunch of other people I could maybe buy it. I suppose he could claim he fled because he was being attacked after the initial ram, but the first attack going forwards seems impossible to defend based on the wack on the car's ass.

We have the benefit of 20/20 hindsight and watching the video from outside the car. The question that matters is what did he know at the time and did he believe he was in danger.

I agree, but I don't see how that stick to the bumper gets him anywhere on a self defense/emergency claim. I'd love to know if he gave a statement to the police.

CNN found old police records that imply his mom called the cops on him when he was a child and that he (presumably it was him) attacked his mother http://www.cnn.com/2017/08/12/us/charlottesville-car-crash-suspect-idd/index.html

he got pulled over by the cops at some point, I didn't watch the video but it's a big nothing anyway http://heavy.com/news/2017/08/james-alex-fields-jr-charlottesville-suspect-arrested-driver-crashed-rally-republican-age-bio-video/

Initially when the police picked him up they didnt believe it was deliberate, for whatever that's worth. I assume that's based on his demeanor and what he may have said but nobody has released what that was.

You serious, Clark? Those are fasces.

The image has survived in the modern world as a representation of magisterial or collective power, law and governance. The fasces frequently occurs as a charge in heraldry, it is present on an older design of the Mercury dime and behind the podium in the United States House of Representatives, it is used as the symbol of a number of Italian syndicalist groups, including the Unione Sindacale Italiana, and it was the origin of the name of the National Fascist Party in Italy (from which the term fascism is derived).

Side Note: the Sergeant at Arms of the US House of Representatives is authorized to grab the fasces from behind the podium and stand with it in between any two (or more, I suppose) Representatives who get into a verbal altercation. Kinda like the cooling rods in a nuclear reactor. Which sucks, because I'd like to see Representatives throwing down on pay-per-view more often, like maybe Trey Gowdy going Chuck Norris on Nancy Pelosi...

How much horsepower does that car have, and how fast does it accelerate? I could see a relatively new driver who's foot was already resting on the gas pedal pushing it hard when startled. I've seen it happen in other cases. How many times have you heard of people nailing the gas in a parking lot and driving into a building? It appears to me he was foolish and in the wrong place. I'm just not ready to convict him of anything w/o real proof yet.

I think the answer will be something like "nobody is preventing them from getting to the Internet," with the Internet itself being interpreted as the town square. The argument will be that the 88s can access the Internet/town square all they want, but the landlord won't rent them a space where they can operate the social club they want to open within city limits, even though ANTIFA, BLM, et al are operating similar clubs leased from the same landlord.

I imagine it will be quite a while before a targeted case comes before an appeals court/SCOTUS which is chosen by the judges/justices to determine whether the inability of someone to create a private internet makes the existing internet a "public" entity or whether there are going to be relaxations on regulations to create your "own" internet. It'll get messy real quick if it's decided that anyone can hang wires around/through/to-the-next town. It gets messy real quick if you decide that "the internet" is a "public space".

The problem is the registrars are private and therefore Stormfront has no constitutional claim. Obviously a private entity being able to "disappear" a site is a free speech issue.

You don't think an argument can be made that the Internet is the new "town commons" and the primary location for peoples opinions to be heard?

Of course you are right, but the courts probably cannot force the registrars to put Stormfront back because they are private entities

How about an argument that they are engaging in collusion or functioning as an effective monopoly to deny service?

I don't see how it can morally or legally justifiable in forcing a private entity to bake a cake or provide a service for one group of people but denying a platform for an unpopular (wrong) opinion for another.

But I'm an absolutist like that, either a private entity has a right to deny service to anyone for any reason or doesn't.

Tear them down!
Tear them down!
Tear them down!

The phrase E pluribus unum also needs banned as it is cryptofacist.
