I got my facts from local news, eyewitness accounts, statements from the Charlottesville PD and many online sources. Here is a
timeline from Breitbart on the activities. It is fairly slanted to the right and leaves a few things out such as the Nazis coming in the wrong way to the park, but is largely in accordance with timelines from other sources such as the Washington Post.
From the timeline:
August 11, 2017 About 8:00 PM
Several hundred white supremacists took to University Grounds Friday evening for a torchlit march that was met by counter-protesters and several tense exchanges on the steps of the Rotunda,
The counter protesters in the timeline are the 60 or so students I mentioned in my earlier post. This was not an organized counter protest, but a bunch of kids in their dorms who saw these thugs marching and chanting through their campus. This was Friday night before the protest for which they had a permit.
Also from the Brietbart timeline:
There was nothing haphazard about the violence that erupted today in this bucolic town in Virginia’s heartland. At about 10 a.m. today, at one of countless such confrontations, an angry mob of white supremacists formed a battle line across from a group of counter-protesters, many of them older and gray-haired, who had gathered near a church parking lot. On command from their leader, the young men charged and pummeled their ideological foes with abandon. One woman was hurled to the pavement, and the blood from her bruised head was instantly visible
You seem to have it in your mind that there were large groups of black hooded Antifa warriors there and that is just not the case. There were some of those jokers, and I wish that they had stayed home as they did not help matters, but the vast majority of the counter protesters were local citizens, students and good people who object to swastikas being paraded in their town. And I'm not sure why you keep brining BLM up in this context as they weren't there as far as I know.
