White nationalists returned to Charlottesville, Va. on Saturday less than two months after one person was killed and dozens were injured when violence broke out after the "Unite the Right" rally.
White nationalist leader, Richard Spencer, led the group of roughly 30 white nationalists, which gathered at Emancipation Park, according to the Charlottesville's CBS affiliate.
he scene was similar to the white nationalist protest in the normally quiet college town last August.
The group carried tiki torches and chanted "You will not replace us," by a statue of Confederate Gen. Robert E. Lee in the park. They also reportedly said, "we will be back."
"Hello Charlottesville, we're back and we're going to keep coming back. You will not replace us, you will not erase us," a protester on a megaphone said.

(27,742 posts)Easily had this been advertised.This shit is much worse than the "free speech" people realize. They have been energized by the killing of Heather Heyer. They are a dangerous gang of shit criminals and social outcasts with a new found identity.

Do more innocent people need to die first?
