You guys are a Lynch mob: White supremacists attack radical left outside courthouse as Fields Jr. is arraignedSARAH K. BURRIS
14 AUG 2017 AT 11:20 ET
White supremacists and Nazis arrived to support James Alex Fields Jr., who was arraigned at the Charlottesville, Virginia courthouse Monday for allegedly ramming his car into counterprotesters.
In support of Fields Jr., a man spoke to press claiming that the group was legally protesting and had a legal permit to hold their demonstration. We defended ourselves, the man said. While the enemy brought improvised flame-throwers. While they brought sticks and they brought knives.
We defended ourselves against thugs in a battle that was brought by this city that wanted a blood-bath, he continued. The police were given a stand-down order as we were trying to exercise our legal, Constitutional right to have a permit.

hauled out of the shadows and made to answer for his order.
