Is there any remaining doubt that the August "protests" and resulting conflict in Charlottesville were orchestrated to stifle and silence any remaining political opposition? 
- The self proclaimed "leader" of the white supremacists, Jason Kessler, was a former Occupy movement member and an Obama supporter. Strange pedigree for a white supremacist but not for an agent provocateur.
- The police were told to stand down and not keep competing protesters separate.
- The FBI has admitted that some of their informants were arrested.

For the record, I believe it is up to the local population to decide the fate of the monuments. But it should be done without this level of blatant manipulation. 

It reminds me of 9-11 Bush, "You are either with us or with the terrorists" - except now "You are either with us or with the Klan". Garbage logic in both cases.
