Organizer of rally mobbed as he tries to give a presser blaming city and cops for death of woman

http://www.dailymail.co.uk/news/article-4786996/Organizer-rally-mobbed-gives-press-conference.html

The organizer of the yesterday's Unite the Right rally was mobbed as he tried to give a press conference blaming the city and cops for the death of a woman protesting the hate-fueled march.
Jason Kessler, who was behind the march that turned violent yesterday, leaving one dead and at least 19 injured, was addressing the media when the surrounding crowd turned nasty.
The alt-right leader was surrounded by an angry mob during his speech as he tried to blame the death of Heather Heyer 32, who was killed by a white supremacist protester, on the city of Charlottesville.

...........................

The fucker had the cheek to blame it on the city and the cops.......not like one of demonic minions got in a car and drove at people.......of course not.

As Kessler was whisked away, many demanded to know why the police were protecting the white nationalists 'when they came to hurt us.'
'Get them out of tour town,' others chanted.
