Terry McAuliffe Caught Lying? Police Contradict VA Gov Claims Of Weapons Stashed By White Nationalists

Statements issued by Virginia State police in the aftermath of last weekend’s violence in Charlottesville, VA directly contradict inflammatory claims made by Gov. Terry McAuliffe that white supremacist groups stashed weapons around town in advance of the “Unite the Right” rally against the removal of confederate statues.

In an interview with Black Lives Matter activist Deray Mckesson, McAuliffe says “they had better armor than my state police and national guard had,” later adding “they had battering rams and we had picked up different weapons that they had stashed around the city.”

McAuliffe was also ‘proud’ that ‘nobody [was] hurt… except for those people that were hit by the car.’

That wasn’t true Terry, was it?

“The governor was referring to the briefing provided him in advance of Saturday’s rally and the extra security measures being taken by local and state police,” Geller tells Reason. “As a safety precaution in advance of August 12, such searches were conducted in and around Emancipation and McIntire Parks. No weapons were located as a result of those searches.”

The Virginia State Police also disputed McAuliffe’s claims that Virginia State Police were underequipped to deal with the heavily armed militia members at Saturday’s rally.

“The governor was referencing the weapons and tactical gear the members of various groups attending the rally had on their persons,” Geller says. “I can assure you that the Virginia State Police personnel were equipped with more-than-adequate specialized tactical and protective gear for the purpose of fulfilling their duties to serve and protect those in attendance of the August 12 event in Charlottesville.“

McAuliffe claimed in an interview with The New York Times that law enforcement arrived to find a line of militia members who “had better equipment than our State Police had.” In longer comments that were later edited out of the Times‘ story, McAuliffe said that up to 80 percent of the rally attendees were carrying semi-automatic weapons. “You saw the militia walking down the street, you would have thought they were an army,” he said.

 

Everyone I don’t like is a Nazi! 

Neo-Nazis and white nationalists of the Richard Spencer and seeming chameleon Jason Kessler variety serve no other purpose in the national dialogue but to fuel conditions leading up to civil war. There are between 5,000 – 8,000 members of the KKK in America – just .003% of America, who don’t speak for conservatives – much in the same way that militantly liberal terrorist group The New Black Panthers don’t speak for the left.

Yet, not only are events in Charlottesville being used to smear and conflate conservatives with neo-nazis, Governor McAuliffe is lying about the incident – suggesting the white supremacists were far more violent, organized and militant than they actually are.

It’s all part of the show…

Make no mistake, McAuliffe’s lies have everything to do with the purple revolution and the summer of rage… It’s #ManufacturedChaos. Keep an eye out for more white supremacist groups to crop up over the next few weeks, along with a well organized Antifa response – and of course, a neutered police presence who have been told to stand down.
