Ahhh! The ever popular President Trump supporter refrain! When they have to defend the indefensible, they usually trot this one out.Or is this the famous
"At least we aren't as bad as them" defense?
They are equally bad groups. If something is "less bad" it does not mean its not bad. For example the bible says all sins are equal. So if you steal a piece of gum it doesn't mean your sin is less than that of someone who killed someone. Like wise even if one side is "less guilty" it doesn't mean they are really less guilty. Both sides promote hate, thus both equally bad.I'd be interested in a few links to who the antifa were tried and convicted of killing.
Or people could stop pretending they're equally guilty?

This situation of a majority voting for one thing and then the minority of voters getting what they picked instead sounds strangely familiar.Charlottesville's community overwhelmingly voted to keep the statue and to keep the park's name. Here's how the three city councilors who voted to sell the statue responded:
In response to the survey data, Charlottesville’s tunnel vision trio had this to say:
Fenwick: "I understand that Lee Park is what the majority of people want now, but I don't think that would be appropriate."
Szakos: “We decided to change the names. We’re not going to go with the majority. This was a way to submit ideas.”
Bellamy: “It’s not rocket science to understand what’s happening,” he said. “You have people clicking things multiple times.”
so to you President Trump is equally as bad the other leaders of his alt-right supporters?They are equally bad groups. If something is "less bad" it does not mean its not bad. For example the bible says all sins are equal. So if you steal a piece of gum it doesn't mean your sin is less than that of someone who killed someone. Like wise even if one side is "less guilty" it doesn't mean they are really less guilty. Both sides promote hate, thus both equally bad.

So, if the statue is staying and the park keeps its name, why were the Nazis and the KKK and the white supremacists there..?? What were they protesting about..?
FYI the side that started it was the US government. They decided to remove the monument. Neo-Nazis and Neo-Confederates responded by showing up with guns.But the side that started it all is the guiltiest.
Just don't touch those monuments. Leave history to history. Problem solved.

...no, the Neo-Nazis and Neo-Confederates weren't unwitting accomplice's in the city's secret conspiracy.Not the US federal government, but the city council of Charlottesville VA, to be exact.
Those criminals from hell that you refer to as new-whatever, only played into the hands of the city council.
...no, the Neo-Nazis and Neo-Confederates weren't unwitting accomplice's in the city's secret conspiracy.
And if you don't know what Neo-Nazis and Neo-Confederates are, then you don't have an understanding of the basic facts needed to discuss this topic.
Neo-Nazism consists of post-World War II social or political movements seeking to revive the ideology of Nazism.
Neo-Nazism borrows elements from Nazi doctrine, including ultranationalism, racism, ableism, xenophobia, homophobia, antiziganism, antisemitism, and initiating the Fourth Reich. Holocaust denial is a common feature, as is the incorporation of Nazi symbols and admiration of Adolf Hitler.
Neo-Confederate (or "Southern Nationalist") is a term used to describe the views of various groups and individuals who portray the Confederate States of America and its actions in the American Civil War in a positive light.
The Ku Klux Klan /ˈkuː ˈklʌks ˈklæn, ˈkjuː/,[7] commonly called the KKK or simply the Klan, is the name of three distinct movements in the United States that have advocated extremist reactionary positions such as white supremacy, white nationalism, anti-immigrationand—especially in later iterations—Nordicism,[8][9] anti-Catholicism[10][11] and antisemitism.[11] Historically, the KKK used terrorism—both physical assault and murder—against groups or individuals whom they opposed.[12] All three movements have called for the "purification" of American society and all are considered right-wing extremist organizations.
Is only way to defend Trump statements. Trump defend Nazis and KKK so need much defense.both may have some guilt, I suspect they aren't equally guilty though.
Ahh! That would be the side that waves the swastika flags then.
If only there was something that people could bring into their houses where they could learn/talk/see about history...maybe we could call them "books" or something? That would probably make someone a pretty penny if they invented something like that.
tulc(wonders why no one ever thought of that before now?)
lol talc you da bomb.Ahhh! The ever popular President Trump supporter refrain! When they have to defend the indefensible, they usually trot this one out.
tulc(noticed no ones posted all the murder convictions of antfa members yet)
Wrong. People stand with Nazis and KKK and White Supremacist will lose. Always.I'm not talking about secret conspiracy, I'm talking about hate crime and stupidity.
Those awful criminals from hell helped the city council and all Confederation haters without realizing it. Any cause such clowns support, will lose.
Are 'Antifa' and the 'Alt-Right' Equally Violent?
tulc(MAGA by making everyone just as guilty as his supporters?)
Wrong. People stand with Nazis and KKK and White Supremacist will lose. Always.
