Unite the Right 2: White Civil Rights Rally (Aug 11-12) - DC & Charlottesville

[6souls]

Led by Jason Kessler & Richard "Punch A Nazi" Spencer

The National Park Service has approved an initial request for organizers to hold a second "Unite the Right" rally, this time across from the White House in August — one year after white supremacists gathered in Charlottesville, Va.

The park service has given initial approval to an application from Jason Kessler to hold a "white civil rights rally" on Aug. 11 and 12, as first reported by WUSA9. Kessler, along with Richard Spencer and others, organized the 2017 rally. The park service has not yet issued a permit for the event.

In an application dated May 8, Kessler estimated as many as 400 people would attend. He listed the purpose of the event as: "Protesting civil rights abuse in Charlottesville Va / white civil rights rally."

A website from organizers of the "Unite the Right" rally lists the event's primary location as "Lee Park" — now called "Emancipation Park" — the Charlottesville park that's been at the center of controversy for its statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee.

Lafayette Square, which sits across Pennsylvania Avenue from the White House, is listed as an "alternate location."

They're expecting the police to provide a lot of cover for them.

They probably will.

As they should, same for any protest

Shouldn't be allowed to have a second protest when your last protest caused a death. The organizer should be in jail for citing violence but alas.

Good news is Metro DC DSA will get to do some more good shit.

[Day]

Yeah fuckin constitutional rights, so annoying

[archibaldcrane]

Wait, it's in the same park in Charlottesville as before, but the backup location is across the street from the White House 117 miles away?

[Anoat]

Well I’m sure nothing will go wrong this time.

[Fiye]

As they say the second time is the charm.

Either that or the jews replaced them.

Yes, he believes the civil rights movement should have ended as soon as people came to blows during the demonstrations.

[NynJa]

No, I meant the "organizer of the protest should be jailed" bullshit, when plenty of leftist protests devolved to riots and physical assault.

White supremacy rally = civil rights now?

Weird how your eyes skipped over the line "when your last protest caused a death."

But hey maybe you can own me by attending that rally and showing me how truly peaceful it is. Bring your buddy Grogs and own me so hard I get sent to the shadowrealm.

[Meresgi]

White supremacy rally = civil rights now?

Welcome to Merica. Also what about Hillary?! Huh? What about her rally/emails?

[Guyverarmor]

Remember guys, All Lives Matter...just so happens White Lives matter more than Black and Hispanic and Asian lives

Do you really believe the protest caused the death? The protest was over. Counter protesters standing in the middle of the street with no permit. You know what caused the death? The fucking absolute moron driving the car.

That day was terrible, the cops fucked up so bad, forcing the protesters to leave and march right through the counter protesters for ??? reasons. Not getting people off the fucking streets and shit. They better have their shit together this year.
