My fear is this is only going to get worse. There are people all over who seem to want to go to war with one another. I'm about ready to let them go to a cage match "Hunger Games" style. Only one walks out and then they are alone forever. I'm sick of people who just want to wrong another because of their race, creed, color, religion, or whatever. Leave others the hell alone to live the life they see fit.

Amateur Sleuths Aim to Identify Charlottesville Marchers, but Sometimes Misfire

Look..................from the NY Slimes, so no way it can be fake news!

After a day of work at the Engineering Research Center at the University of Arkansas, Kyle Quinn had a pleasant Friday night in Bentonville with his wife and a colleague. They explored an art exhibition at the Crystal Bridges Museum of American Art and dined at an upscale restaurant.

Then on Saturday, he discovered that social media sleuths had incorrectly identified him as a participant in a white nationalist rally some 1,100 miles away in Charlottesville, Va. Overnight, thousands of strangers across the country had been working together to share photographs of the men bearing Tiki torches on the University of Virginia campus. They wanted to name and shame them to their employers, friends and neighbors. In a few cases, they succeeded.

Brilliant! Right?

Fearing for their safety, he and his wife stayed with a colleague this weekend.

“You have celebrities and hundreds of people doing no research online, not checking facts,” he said. “I’ve dedicated my life to helping all people, trying to improve health care and train the next generation of scientists, and this is potentially throwing a wrench in that.”

Good job, morons. I hope they are proud of themselves.

i'm generally pretty good until folks start having torch wielding mobs along with heavily armed militia marching in the streets, telling folks they are going to take the country back from those people, and looking for a fight.

I know Pulaski Tennessee tried this. Does anyone know how it played out?

La Times

"Our protest is to turn our back on them. We're shunning them to let them know they don't have a welcome mat here," said Bob Henry, a leader of Pulaski's show of solidarity against the rally by the Aryan Nations. "We think brotherhood is better than prejudice."

By the people, I mean acting through the law. Angry mobs need not apply. Get up off your lazy bum and elect the people you want so they will change it. No need to be careful about that in respect to removing statues from public squares.

Angry mobs can and often do act through the law. When a majority of people become uncivil, so does the law. Removing statues out of ignorance is wrong whether it reflects the will of an ignorant minority or an ignorant majority. However, I will conceded, all things being equal, it is better for the angry mob to follow the institutional process in place than to just blow it up.
