On April 25, 2019 Judge Richard E. Moore of the Charlottesville Circuit Court
During last night's fiasco called the First Presidential Debate of 2020, former Vice President Joe Biden snidely remarked that President Trump had called the people who came to protest in the streets of Charlottesville, Virginia in 2017 as some "really nice people".
What Biden failed to mention, perhaps deliberately, or through his own ignorance of what actually happened there, was that President Trump was referring to the group of Charlottesville residents and others who organized the original peaceful protest over the removal of a statue of Confederate General Robert E. Lee as well as the renaming of a city park which had been named in his honor.
These "really nice people" were not radicals, but simply concerned citizens upset over this deliberate and politically-motivated attack on the heritage and history of the American South, which in case you fail to realize gentle readers of this post, is also part of the history of the United States of America.
The city council of Charlottesville, like many urban administrations across the South, have succumbed to the demands to do away with any reminders of "The Lost Cause of the Confederacy", having bowed their collective knees in cowardice and I might add, woefully ignorance, of their own regional and national history, to the intimidation of the purveyors of this century's version of the Thought Police, better known as "Social Justice Warriors".
The original group protesting the removal of General Lee's statute, which had stood in their city for many years, held a candlelight vigil on the night before the proposed removal. But suddenly, radical groups of the Far Left (Black Lives Matter, Antifa) and the Far Right (KKK and Neo-Nazis) showed up, flooding the streets of Charlottesville and taking over the original rally, which quickly exploded into a scene of mass chaos and violence, culminating in the tragic death of a young woman named Heather Heyer, who was run down by a car in the street.
Was President Trump personally to blame for the unprecedented acts of mayhem and murder in the streets of Charlottesville that day, as well as the unfortunate death of a young woman attending the protest? As much as Joe Biden and others who share an unreasonable hatred for our president would like the American people to believe, the answer is no.
President Trump was defending those "really nice people" the proud citizens of the old southern city of Charlottesville, for merely exercising their Constitutional right to assemble peacefully, as well as their desire to preserve and to protect both their Southern heritage and American history from being erased forever.
