White Nationalists have been rallying in Charlottesville Virginia, so far one is dead, and more than a dozen were wounded by a domestic terrorist attack with a car at the White Supremecist rally. Total now is 3 dead due to this fucking rally. All in the name of white power, and that line of bullshit.
David Duke (leader of the KKK) says this “represents a turning point for our country” and that “this is why we supported Donald Trump and he said he was going to give us our country back”…sick, sick, man. He then reminded Trump that it was white Americans that elected him to do just this “taking of America back”.
The trash heap of bigotry that marched in to Charlottesville were pure and simple white supremecists, white nationalists and anti-equality morons. These are individuals and groups like the KKK and David Duke, who have nothing but racial bigotry and hatred to spread and fuel across this land. They are a scourge on our nation. The do NOT represent our country. This was a terror attack by white nationalists on America. Trump, by not calling them out on it, just gave them more fuel. HE is part of this problem; he is one of them. His little “speech” did nothing to stop them or discourage them because he would not label them or call them out for what they are – nasty white supremecists. I am fucking outraged now more than ever with his stupid orange ass.
It was a super difficult day here in America. Everyone was watching things unfold in real-time on national television and talking about it amongst ourselves. Tensions are running very high everywhere – not just in Charlottesville. Yes, dear World, America is a fucking mess and is not the great nations she’s supposed to be anymore. Somehow we have put a Nazi sympathizer, white nationalist lying bigot into the highest office of our land, and now he is showing us his true face; his true beliefs. He’s supporting his “base” of these trashy, anti-American people with lies of omission and words to show he is sympathetic to their fucked up cause. It’s one huge mess. And we are all suffering, whether we admit it or not. This is NOT what we signed up for. This is NOT the true America that we were so proud of in the past.
The tensions even came tomy world today when I was at a big family gathering. A small argument broke out. I heard those ugly words “why can’t you support our President?”. Why can’t I “support” him??? Why can’t HE support ME? Why does he continue to bring hate and discontent to everyone everywhere that he touches or speaks to?
The Virginia governor, Terry McAuliffe, spoke out to the white nationalists very eloquently. He told them to “go home and never come back” to his city or state. He bravely stood before the cameras and mics and said everything that our president SHOULD have said. watch here
It’s now Sunday morning, I am just waking up and am fearful to turn on the news and to see what today brings us.
We have so much going on here with this president who keeps our country is chaos. He flirts with nuclear war with N. Korea, fuels racial strife in Virginia, and we never know what’s next out of his Twitter thumbs. He’s a menace, a disgrace and we are in serious trouble. I don’t know how we move forward from here, but we have to find a way. We just have to.
Peace. ~MB
