Saturday the white supremacists came back to Charlottesville.
The prominent white supremacist Richard B. Spencer was a featured speaker at a rally on Saturday in Charlottesville, Va., where demonstrators reprised their chant of “You will not replace us!” and asserted that the South would “rise again.”
The gathering, which occurred eight weeks after a “Unite the Right” rally resulted in the death of a 32-year-old woman, was considerably smaller than the one in August, instead resembling a group of protesters who descended on the park in May.
The Charlottesville Police Department said in a statement that Saturday’s rally began around 7:40 p.m., included 40 to 50 people and lasted no more than 10 minutes.
Good that it was small, but not good that Spencer and his friends feel entitled to keep throwing pro-racism demonstrations.
On Twitter, Mayor Mike Signer of Charlottesville urged the demonstrators to “Go home!”
Another despicable visit by neo-Nazi cowards. You’re not welcome here! Go home! Meantime we’re looking at all our legal options. Stay tuned.

Rallies for Racism aren’t really something the world needs.
So what were the president and vice-president doing yesterday? Making statements against racism? Oh hell no – they were making a huge fuss about black athletes protesting racist violence.
So that’s where we are.

Well Trump the Donald would not want to alienate too big a part of his own constituency. Would not look good. More likely it would look bad. Seriously & bigly bad.
And where is all of that cheering coming from?
From North Korea.
(Blinks at ‘You will not replace us…’)
Replace you? Don’t be silly.
Got absolutely no use for you. You don’t _replace_ stuff with that distinction, generally…
Seriously, you lot saying this makes about as much sense as a hemmorhoid threatening to go on strike.
If the Donald gets his way large parts of the South will rise again – along with most of the North in a series of mushroom clouds.
