5. Strategy 1: It was a leftist who did it to themselves

Strategy 2: It was an ordinary guy who was scared by the leftists.
Strategy 3: ????

Watch carefully for people who take these positions, even close to - ahem - home.

7. Strategy 3: Look at the damage their bodies did to his car, so much for the tolerant left nt

12. I wish that was an unreasonable prediction of their response.

Advice to all Lefties, including Mainline Dems: Get weapons training. These people aim to murder you and your families.

They might be under the bed.

9. I came to post that same link

"James Alex Fields Jr. (born April 26, 1997) is a resident of Maumee, Ohio​. He is registered to vote in Lucas County, Ohio​ and put his party affiliation as Republican.[1]​In addition, James is registered as the owner of a Gray 2010 Dodge Challenger​ that ran into protesters at the Unite the Right​ rally.[2]​


Military Service

From August 18th to December 11th, 2015, James was listed as an Active Duty Service Member in the United States Army​.[24]​ "

[sunonmars]

11. So a complete failure, lasted less than 4 months in the army......

[canetoad]

15. Yeah, I wondered about

That line. Can you be in the services without being described as 'active duty' or are the four months the sum total of his so-called service.

[Adrahil]

23. He was separated early....

We just don't kmow why.

Could be he was injured and disabled, could be he was psyched out. I have an asshole Deplorable step nephew who was psyched out after he tried to rape a woman. He was diagnosed with depressin and anxiety and separated in lieu of court martial (with the consent of the victim).

[dalton99a]

16. His proudest achievement in life: Being white.

[Ilsa]

17. Could he have been a reservist before

Active duty and it wasn't mentioned? I know, he probably was discharged for being an ass.

I'm glad he's locked up now. I hope the judge denies bail.

20. No wonder he admires the Republican draft dodger in chief

Republican chicken hawks have a lot of scum in common
