There's actually a rumour/conspiracy theory saying he joined to minimize damage to the nation as a whole (aka attack hard/fast with a regular army and conclude the war swiftly with the South's honor intact, hopefully). There were no allusions that the South lost before the first bullet was fired and he had intimate knowledge of what the US Army was capable of (having graduated from West Point and serving with most of it's officer corps).

In many ways, if I had to take a wild guess into the mind of Bobby Lee when he was contemplating doing the unthinkable in his Virginia mansion on that night in 1862; I think he was trying to pull a Jesus and sacrifice himself so that the bodycount stayed under a million. Or maybe I'm giving the man too much credit.

They would not have been able to predict or foresee that white supremacist plow his car into peaceful protesters and if they did what would they have been able to do to stop him? Hindsight is 20/20.

They would have kept the two groups apart like they typically do at protests that have counter protestors. At least when they're not ordered to stand down by mayors with political agendas.

So all of this is the Mayor's fault. Gotcha.

It doesn't take hindsight to know what could happen with 2 opposing groups who are there for a fight.

It takes a complicit Mayor to force the police department to not do their job.

Had the mayor not pushed his political agenda and let the police do their job, then this could have been avoided.

ROFL. What political agenda? Were the nazi racist white supremacists there for a political agenda? They were able to gather much to everyone's dismay. Look what happened. A white supremacist and nazi admirer murdered 1 and hurt 19 peaceful protesters.

If a mayor orders cops to stand down from a situation that they know beforehand is happening that is extremely likely to get violent without them there, how is he not at least partially responsible?

I'm not saying that's what happened here, though I wouldn't be at all surprised if that ends up being the case unless they're just really that dumb and incompetent, but it's happened at other recent protests/riots, has it not?

At its core the entire situation is the fault of people who were violent on both sides. All of it could have also been easily prevented by putting a buffer between violent retard team 1 and violent retard team 2.

But keep making overly emotional posts as if you're helping.

The whole thing would not have happened if racist nazi white supremacists hadn't insisted on holding an assembly in public. Did they have the right? Yes. Did they have the permit? Yes. Did they know there could be violence? Yes. But they went ahead and did it anyway. What happened? Heather Heyer who was a law-abiding peaceful protester exercising her Constitutional rights was murdered by a white supremacist nazi admirer.

If the pilgrims would have just stayed in England, none of this would have happened.

Thanks for starting this riot, pilgrims, fucking assholes.
