CHARLOTTESVILLE, Va. — As demonstrators clashed near a downtown park here two weeks ago, a fascist in a bulletproof vest turned, pointed a pistol toward the crowd and fired a single shot at the ground, in the direction of a black man wielding an improvised torch.
To make his escape, a video recording shows, the fascist strolled past a line of about a dozen state police troopers who were safely positioned about 10 feet away behind two metal barricades. None of them budged.
“We all heard it and ran — I know damn well they heard it,” said Rosia Parker, a community activist in Charlottesville. “They never moved.”
* All references in this article to ‘white nationalist’ or ‘protestor’ have been changed to ‘fascist’ in this Tumblr post because I’m going to call a fascist a fascist even if the NY Times won’t.
