    You do realize that Trump immediately saying these things could have incited even more violence? Obama did this a couple times and it opened up huge problems from rights to court issues in getting the bad guys prosecuted. You have to look at this from all sides not just the political side. The legal side the cities protection side on and on. He immediately said all act of violence shouldn't be tolerated and that was good during the middle of this mess, he he would've chosen a side it could had gotten even uglier. The bottom line both side alt members need to be stopped in their tracks with extreme force from the police, this crap from both sides shouldn't go on anywhere.

    Was this picture taken before Trump stopped being a democrat and before he was mature enough to talk about grabbing women by the *****?

    As an anti-Trump conservative, I don't even believe that Trump is a racist. I do believe that he has no morals, and has no problems with allying with racists. For somebody who lambasted his own AG and ally for weeks, you would think he would have been forceful condemning the neo-Nazis from the beginning.

    So much hatred from people here on these posts. And we wonder why America is heading for the toilet. It isn't Trump. It is the citizens of these United States, many posting here on this thread.

    Trump could solve poverty and crime and every other bad thing that we could think of and all we would hear is Too little, too late!

    The good news still is Hillary is not the President of these United States and never will be!

    I don't think he needed to do this, and paint the false image that the only racists and Hate groups in the USA are the White ones...but many weren't going to let it go until he did.

    Trump should have called this out for what it was: An act of terrorism.

    Obama was repeatedly criticized by the right for not calling out terrorism.

    Seems like the analysis is different when the terrorist is a white American RW male.

    Yeah, let's see Terry McAuliffe and his fellow Democrats identify and condemn the Leftists who rioted in Charlottesville on Saturday.

    Are they concerned about the violence or are they amoral hypocrites whose sole concern is political gain?

    My money is on the latter...

    That's the around the same time as the Confederate flag started making a reappearance.

    "Heritage, not hate."

    The only problem is your heritage sure seems to include an awful lot of hate.

    OK. I'm going to say kudos to President Trump. Could've been said a lot earlier, but I'm not going to fault a president for taking a bit of a measured approach.

    We don't know yet if it was an act of terrorism or not. And has Obama called Fort Hood an act of terrorism yet?

    Of course it was an act of terrorism? Would you be arguing this was not an act of terrorism if the driver was a muslim instead of a white guy? No you wouldn't.

    Unbelievable.
