Honestly did you expecting anything greater from him? He's never going to abandon the alt-right because they are the only ones still behind him. And I'm sure he believes in their views. It still shocks me that the alt-right, while seemingly a minority in this country, has so much power.

Try fucking living here. It feels 1,000,000 times worse, I assure you.
Maybe, but he was arrested. There's a photo of it.
"Antifas", let me guess? you think of them as bad too? Or just as bad? Keep attacking yourself friend, ..
one day when we are in the barracks, I'll hand you my spare towel with a smile:"Let's hope it's a water day.".

Honestly?
This was it.
It is categorily impossible to say that anybody who supports Trump could possibly be a good person after this.
I already believe that months ago but now I know for sure

What did he say for people who aren't watching?

Doesn't mean the biggest organized gang in the country won't find a way to get him off scot-free.

Nah, it's about what I expected from him. He likely would've said nothing about the rally beyond the tweet if this attack didn't happen.
The plates match the vehicle.

Will this solution scale? Will it solve the problem at all?
Like, what's the endgame here?
Equating getting maced with people being murdered. Yup
Scaled pretty well at Normandy as I understand it

Exterminate all nazis
They are NOT the only ones still behind him. He remains backed by almost half the country.
We're loooooooooooooooong past that point imo, just another thing to add to the pile.
MMmmmhmmm.

You're right.
I did not pick that up as I was too busy face palming but I think you are absolutely right.
I hate to say I told you so, buuuuut....
I did tell you: They will never attack their own. At most this "sad triggered man" will get some jailtime because he was violent too early.

I certainly don't disagree, I just mean that if he did replace his license plates, it doesn't matter because he was caught. But yeah, we'll see if justice is actually served.
They weren't removed. The plates were from Ohio.
There is precedent for shooting unarmed teenagers and getting off scottfree.
"Panicking into a bunch of hippies" probably works too.

Cut off the governor (?) when he was condemning white nationalist and claimed trump nailed it when he said both sides and rushed to commercial..

The depressing thing is they aren't even Nazis, they are Nazi wannabes, which in some ways is even more pathetic.
Guarantee you 99.9% of them can't even tell you how the Nazi Party originated. They are just brain dead, brainwashed, single digit IQ sheep who probably don't have a level of education past the 3rd grade.
A complex issue that can't be fixed in one way, but you can start with putting more money into education. Dumb people = people susceptible to nutty ideologies, which = being prone to violent acts, rallies.

Don't blame you, I don't have much faith in the system anymore either. Really hard to, at this point.
People asking Trump to denounce the terror attack seriously bother me.
He gave hate a voice. He embraced it. Lead it. And will continue to do so.
Any condemnation by Trump of this terror attack is completely meaningless. Stop normalizing his hate, his anti minority legislation by asking him condemn this terror.

Education isn't the reason why people become white supremacists .. Cause there are a lot of "smart" people who are ones
This is mean. White people hate spicy
Jeez..

Summary?

Disagree. Not necessarily talking about school level book education, more of a broad use of the term. The more intelligent you are on all levels, whether it be socially, academically the less of a chance your mind will gravitate toward bigotry and nonsensical belief systems.
Living in diverse communities also helps. A big reason why the negative stigma of homosexuality has decreased over the years is because most people know or have met someone who is gay in their lives and once you get to know them, you realize they aren't any different. They are like anyone else. Now looking at this from a racial perspective, it's hard when you're not very bright to draw that conclusion on your own without interacting with other races and cultures and nationalities on a daily basis and seeing they are just like them and aren't any different as people. When you're cocooned in these communities that have no diversity, these morons who can't draw those conclusions logically on their own can't learn first hand either.
So they buy into rhetoric and become brainwashed.
You can get good grades in school in math and a language course, but that doesn't necessarily make you "smart" per se. Education covers a wide spectrum of things. I meant more of a broad perspective. Socially as well, which is also important.
And Ben Ferguson is quickly taking Jeffrey Lord's place as the Trump apologist and says Trump "condemned" the violence.

He fucking ran people over with a car....
Who's the "other" side even suppose to be? I don't get it. Like Trump said "many sides" a couple of times but all I see is racist scum and everyone else

Remove anyone who is a nazi.
IMO his majority base is closeted racists and bigots. I don't buy into the whole "I'm republican for x, y, z even though his social policies are terrible". Anyone who condones or supports the alt-right is part of the alt-right.
