Terrifying Video of the Car That Rammed into Anti-Racist Protestors, Killing One

By Trey Speegle on August 12, 2017 2:12 pm

Several pedestrians were struck and one died as a result of a deliberate crash in Charlottesville, Virginia. Police were dispersing demonstrators from a white-nationalist and right-wing rally, the Virginia State Police said on Twitter.

Virginia’s governor Terry McAuliffe has declared an emergency, and police worked to disperse hundreds of protesters in after clashes broke out ahead of today’s Unite the Right rally of white nationalists and other right-wing groups.

Charlottesville mayor Mike Signer, said on twitter after learning of the death after the car slammed into anti0-racist protestors,

“I am heartbroken.”

Trump made a speech but condemned the violence “on both sides” and ignored the question when asked if he wanted the White Nationalist’s support.

Here’s the terrifying video. You don’t see the car hit anyone but the before and after are scary enough.

As it says, this is clearly home-grown terrorism, even if Trump won’t name it as such.
