IN ADVANCE OF THE SPEECH AT THE UNIVERSITY OF FLORIDA OF THE
WHITE SPERM ASSIST RICHARD SPENCER THERE WERE CONCERNS
ABOUT POSSIBLE VIOLENCE, WELL OVER $500,000 WAS SPENT BY THE
UNIVERSITY FOR SECURITY, IT WOULD HAVE BEEN GREAT IF THEY
COULD SPEND THAT ON SOMETHING ELSE BUT THEY HAVE TO SPEND IT
TO PROTECT THE STUDENTS FROM THE VIOLENCE THAT COULD ERUPT FROM A
NAZI'S SPEECH, BUT THEY DID THAT, HE HAD HIS SPEECH, HE WAS
MOSTLY SHOUTED DOWN, SORRY, THAT'S WHAT FREE SPEECH IS LIKE,
BUT THE CONCERNS ABOUT POSSIBLE VIOLENCE WEREN'T MISPLACED.
HE
IS OF COURSE AN INTEGRAL PART OF THE SITUATION THAT DEVELOPED IN
CHARLOTTESVILLE THAT RESULTED IN THE MURDER OF A PROTESTER, AND
THE CONCERN WAS SOMEBODY ELSE COULD POSSIBLY LOSE THEIR LIFE,
POSSIBLY EVEN MORE, WHEN YOU PUT OUT A MESSAGE DESIGNED TO DRAW
THESE EXTREME LUNATICS TO YOU.
IT TURNS OUT THOSE FEARS WERE
WELL-PLACED, YOU WILL SEE HERE THREE INDIVIDUALS, BIG FANS OF
RICHARD SPENCER, IT TURNS OUT THEY TRIED TO MURDER SOMEONE
AFTER ATTENDING HIS SPEECH.
THEY WERE ARRESTED --
>> VERY SELDOM DOES ANYTHING GOOD INVOLVE YELLING HEIL
HITLER.
>>EXCEPT WHEN JEFFREY LORD GOT FIRED.
>> THANKFULLY, NOBODY DIED BECAUSE HE APPARENTLY HAS
TERRIBLE AIM, HE FIRED AT THE PROTESTERS AND MISSED
THANKFULLY, THEN FLED -- AS A COWARD -- THANKFULLY THEY TOOK
DOWN THE LICENSE PLATE NUMBER AND THEY WERE ABLE TO BE FOUND.
>>THAT AMAZING, SHOTS WERE FIRED, THEY STILL GOT DOWN
THE LICENSE PLATE NUMBER.
>>I DON'T UNDERSTAND HOW THEY DID IT BUT THEY DID, THANK
FULLY.
AND WHAT IS SO INTERESTING IS THAT WHEN YOU GO
TO BEFORE THE SPEECH IT TURNS OUT THAT SOME OF THOSE
INDIVIDUALS WHO TRIED TO MURDER PROTESTERS AGAINST RICHARD
SPENCER WERE QUITE VOCAL ABOUT WHAT THEY WERE LOOKING TO GET,
AND THE THINGS THEY SAID DON'T NECESSARILY LINE UP WITH THEIR
ACTIONS.
THE ONE WHO ACTUALLY FIRED THE SHOTS SAID --
>> MAYBE NOT NOBODY.
IT SEEMS LIKE YOU WANT THAT, ACTUALLY, IT
SEEMS LIKE YOU BROUGHT A GUN TO THIS EVENT LOOKING TO MURDER
SOMEONE.
THEN ONE OF THE OTHER INDIVIDUALS WHO WAS EGGING HIM
ON SAID --
>> BUT THEN YOU WERE THE GUY SHOUTING TO MURDER THE
PROTESTERS SO THAT UNDERCUTS YOUR MESSAGE A LITTLE BIT.
AND
HE WENT ON TO SAY --
>> I DON'T KNOW WHAT DEFENDING MEANS TO HIM, BUT IT PROBABLY
DOESN'T MEAN GETTING OUT OF YOUR JEEP AND FIRING A WEAPON, A
FIREARM, AT UNARMED PROTESTERS.
>>ONE THING ABOUT THIS, IT HAPPENED AFTER CHARLOTTESVILLE
AND IT IS IN EVIDENCE HERE, ONE THING TO KEEP IN MIND IS ONE OF
THE WAYS THAT THE WHITE SUPREMACIST, WHITE NATIONALIST,
AND ETHNO NATIONALIST MOVEMENTS ARE RECRUITING IS THERE COMING
FROM THESE MEN'S RIGHTS ACTIVISTS ONLINE, PROUD BOYS AND
OTHER THINGS LIKE THAT, THEY HAVE A PRIVATE MILITIA, THE
FRATERNAL ORDER OF THE ALT KNIGHTS, YOU CAN'T EVEN MAKE FUN
OF THEM SOMETIMES, THEY BELIEVE VIOLENCE IS THE ONLY ANSWER
EVEN THOUGH NOBODY WANTS IT.
>>AND THEY SEE THEMSELVES AS THE AGGRIEVED PARTY.
>>AND THERE'S THIS RECRUITING POOL, YOU SEE THESE WHITE
NATIONALISTS COMING AND GOING TO THEM SAYING THIS IS LARGELY THE
KINDS OF PEOPLE WE CAN PULL INTO OUR FOLD AND THEY ARE COMING
FROM WHAT IS ESSENTIALLY THESE YOUNG WHITE MEN COMMUNITIES THAT
ARE MOSTLY, LIKE YOU SAID, AGGRIEVED, AND IS EVIDENCE OF
THAT THE LEADING SOCIAL MEDIA ACCOUNTS FOR WHITE SUPREMACY ON
TWITTER HAD A 300% INCREASE BETWEEN 2014 AND 2016.
THAT'S
THE WHITE GENOCIDE COMMUNITY, IS HOW THEY DEFINED THEM SELF
BROADLY, AND IT'S A REFLECTION OF THE LANDSCAPE, THERE'S A
REASON THEY ARE TURNING TOWARD VIOLENCE, THEY ARE PREDISPOSED
TO THAT, MUCH OF WHAT WE SAW AND CHARLOTTESVILLE CAME FROM THESE
COMMUNITIES, IT WASN'T JUST A BUNCH OF NASTY WHITE
NATIONALISTS, THEY ARE TRAINING FOR THIS, THAT'S WHAT THIS
FRATERNAL ORDER DOES.
AND JUST TODAY THE HILTON IN ARIZONA HAD
TO CANCEL CONFERENCE FROM ANOTHER LEADING WHITE
NATIONALIST ORGANIZATION, THIS IS THE FIRST YEAR THEY'VE TRIED
TO HOST A NATIONAL CONFERENCE CONVENING FOR WHITE
SUPREMACISTS, LITERALLY LIKE A TRADE ASSOCIATION KIND OF THING,
BECAUSE THEY ARE EMBOLDENED.
>>IT HAS BEEN BUILDING, BUT NOW THEY FEEL -- AND BY THE WAY
THESE REPORTS COME OUT ABOUT A PERSON ACCOSTING SOMEONE IN THE
CONVENIENCE STORE, AND THEY SHOUT THINGS LIKE THIS IS
TRUMP'S AMERICA, THE WORLD IS A DIFFERENT PLACE NOW.
TRUCK SAID
IT HIMSELF LAST WEEK, WE ARE GOING BACK TO A DIFFERENT TIME.
IT LOOKS LIKE A LOT OF PEOPLE ARE ENTHUSIASTIC ABOUT IT.
THERE'S BEEN A LITTLE REPORTING OF THIS ATTEMPTED MURDER, IT
SEEMS LIKE IT WOULD BE PICKED UP MORE CONSIDERING THE LAST BIG
MEETING DID LEAD TO THE MURDER OF A PROTESTER, BUT WHAT I FIND
ODD IS THE PEOPLE BOTH ON THE RIGHT, PEOPLE LIKE TOMI LAHREN
AND THE CLASSIC LIBERALS WHO CARE ABOUT FREE SPEECH RIGHTS,
WHEN A PROTESTER IS GUNNED DOWN BY SOMEONE WHO SAYS THEY ARE ON
YOUR SIDE, WHEN THEY TRY TO TAKE THE LIVES OF PEOPLE SPEAKING OUT
AND PROTESTING, WHY THEN DOES YOUR CONCERN FOR FREE SPEECH NOT
COME UP?
WHY ARE THERE NO TWEETS OR FINAL THOUGHTS?
>>WE NEED THE BELL FOR THE DOUBLE STANDARD.
>>I THINK BUT HE MUCH FOR THE REST OF TRUMP'S TERM WE NEED A
LOT OF BELLS GOING AROUND THE COUNTRY.
