In South Africa, violent protests and riots are becoming an everyday thing, and this seems to be a trend spreading rapidly across the globe. I believe that we are seeing an increase and a surge in this kind of behavior because we are reaching the end. The more hatred and division Satan and his forces are able to bring about, the easier it will become for these forces to control, manipulate and destroy the masses.
Am I wrong here?
As I understand it, the White group in Charlottesville followed the legal path of applying for a permit to demonstrate.
Were not most of the disrupters of that demonstration, outsiders bussed in to cause a ruckus? Not saying the Whites were right to arm themselves when they started seeing all the Liberals arriving in town with helmets and bats, ready for battle...... just saying there certainly seems to be something a bit fishy here in the one-sided blame that is being promoted.

I dont know that they have flushed out the whole story yet. It seems white supremacists were there but so were ANTIFA members. Seems to me that both sides got a notice and came running. Looks like there was wrong on both sides. Of course far left libs are going to amp it up to trash Trump. But when you see ANTIFA showing up you know something is going down.

A Fox news reporter who was in the thick of it said police stood back and let things get out of control.That means someone from the top told them to let it ride.If this is found to be true, someone is culpable for the death of that poor woman and 19 injuries, on top of the fool that drove into the crowd.
We are living in a time when the very wealthy are telling the working class and even the poorer of our fellows in strife that the taxes they have paid for health, education and welfare is of no effect in the governing body. The government(s) tell those who fall ill that any medical treatment they receive due to what they have paid in for it is a gift, and they do not deserve it, even though all py into the vaired health services of varied countries.
Soon enough, those retired who are collecting on the money they have paid into the SS coffers all of their lives will be told the money they have received is a gift, and undeserved.
The very wealthy are so stupid they are destroying their own consumer base. Now, who will buy manufactured goods and services if the very wealthy have destroyed the economic base of the entire west.
Does a landowner underpay his workers so that they cannot even buy the wheat they harvest? No, that would be diabolical.
The current atrocity in Virginia is but a small reflection of the workings of evil in play today.
I have witnessed changes unbelievable in governments and society. They actually do not surprise me since I believe God, but I do worry a lot about those who walk in darkenss, and the generation(s) to come, if there will be any at all.
It is time for all who claim to believe Jesus Christ to think on all of this and ask where they each stand, with the Lord of Heaven, or that other guy.
God bless all who are truly in Jesus Christ... Please, do all you are given to be able to listen to Him and hear Him.

I've lived in C'ville. Much of my family lives in C'ville. I really hate how this has been pulled out of reality into a sensational story, whereas what happened in Berkeley was a minor story and shooting a Congressman was a minor story.
Here's the real story.
Robert E. Lee was a native son of Virginia. He made a bad choice, but if it wasn't for his bad choice, we would not have the Arlington National Cemetery. How does that work out? Because Lee lost that war, the government took away his land. His land was where they put the Arlington National Cemetery.
So, anyway, there is a statue of Lee in C'ville. Earlier this year, the elected officials in C'ville voted to take it down. Seems dumb to me, but I'm all for elected government making these decisions for their community, so go for it.
Every year, and I mean every year since I was a kid living in C'ville, the idiotic KKK got the necessary paperwork to march in C'ville. Again, idiots, but the First Amendment means something, so they have that right. AND every year, it was a news story so the people of C'ville know where NOT to go that day. As a city, the vast majority of the citizens chose to avoid it.
That parade was last month! How about that? LAST month, so what happened here?
The news caught onto that, because those idiots were protesting Lee's statue going down. It was a leftist's news story, told by leftists to pat themselves on the back for doing their duty to "reeducate" people into thinking the left did something good. (Because nothing says "we're great" more than taking down a statue, especially when the "we" telling everyone how great they are, had nothing to do with it.)
Would have been the end of the story, except because it made national news, two sides got up in arms. The anarchists/far-left and the supremacists/far-right. And, because they missed the march, they set up their own.
The idiot who murdered Heather Heyley is from Ohio. We'll never know the full story, but that's not the C'Ville I know.
I've often told my story on this site. I came to Christ at 16 years old. That's where I lived then. I used to go to a Christian coffeehouse. That's the same street Heather was killed on. I went to Albemarle High, where school buses picked us up from all across the city, (school was about 10 miles from where I lived), and all income classes and colors merged into one place. I've lived in the North, and I've lived in the Midwest, but that was the only school where kids did NOT segregate by choice. My brothers (two out of four) and cousins still live there. They're as royally peeved as I am, because the stories coming out aren't about C'ville. They're about two groups of terrorists descending on their community, unaware that the other side will fight to the death.
This is the image of the two groups of terrorist meeting together.
Neither side was Charlottesville!

It was always that any freedom is only true freedom when exercised with responsibility.
It is apparent those in power with the authority to govern are no longer capable of interpreting
the laws that alwlays seemed to work just fine of the Constitution... Other countries than the US have their own
laaws not being properly interpreted and applied.
I am sure all have heard the example of screaming fire in a crowded movie houwe. This is the well-uesed
example of abusing freedom of speech.
ÇAny encitement to bodily harm is not exercising freedom of ay nture with responsibility.
When my rights were taken from me, I realized the Constitution is just wet paper today.
Perhaps some insightful leader will come along and reconstitute it for all....no pun intended.
