Reverend Blackman, while discussing the live events in Charlottesville, was suddenly whisked away. My stomach dropped.

If these people were black there would be tanks.

(115,735 posts)Charlottesville (not Charlotte, which is in NC) is not a large city and probably doesn't have a very big police force. The news report says the state police are there - but they don't seem to be in control of things.

Anarcho-syndicalism (also referred to as revolutionary syndicalism)[1] is a theory of anarchism which views revolutionary industrial unionism or syndicalism as a method for workers in capitalist society to gain control of an economy and, with that control, influence broader society. Syndicalists consider their economic theories a strategy for facilitating worker self-activity and as an alternative co-operative economic system with democratic values and production centered on meeting human needs.

There are probably a lot more of his type old guard that are appalled by this and don't want Donald to be their figurehead.
Wow, this is just insane. Trump is bringing out his Nazi believers.
