Charlottesville: Man Firing Gun at the Crowd Video Emerges

% of readers think this story is Fact. Add your two cents.


A video recorded by an ACLU legal observer during the August 12 white nationalist rally in Charlottesville, Virginia, shows a man firing a single round toward a counter protester who is spraying fire from a homemade aerosol blowtorch.

Rally-goer Richard Wilson Preston, 52, was arrested Saturday on counts of discharging a firearm within 1,000 feet of a school. Preston’s arrest came after the ACLU shared the video with local, state, and federal authorities.

It’s unclear if Preston has a lawyer.

The man with the aerosol torch has not been charged at this time.

Although dozens of people were injured in other violent clashes at the rally, no one was injured by the gunfire or flames during this particular incident.

      The torch is also a deadly weapon, along with a knife axe blunt instrument etc. The torch was used first in a threat towards other people using the stairway and the presence of the firearm stopped the use of less deadly weapons by the far left protesters illegally present. The flame-thrower user was masked and the police very clearly should have moved in to the area since the man was not only suspect but armed whilst wearing a mask. The real agitators do not wish to be identified whist agitating, they throw rocks from within the crowd, are the first to throw the insults and the first to run away. Would the armed man be right in shooting dead a masked man spraying fire at some average joes just walking behind him.

      I like the video caption at the end since Heather Heyyer died whilst being on a white car ? itself hit by a car with a falsely identified driver who was unable to leave Virginia state campus Rotunda being filmed there that morning after being blocked in by these very protesters, the accident happened at 11pm Fields/Bloom was being photographed and seen on video that morning at Virginia campus after 9, the car parks were blocked off by protesters as were most roads and the meeting he was to attend was at 12. He had the same make of car with a different sun roof and no stripes, the driver if there was one hit the white car surrounded by the angry mob attacking and car-jacking motorists at the water st 4th st SE crossroads after being themselves ran into by a Brown Van mysteriously parked on the 4th st SE crossing for several minutes before their arrival at 11 am, which then reversed back up 4th st SE whist the crowd gathered then drove into them stopping mid crossing. There was no driver, occupants bailed out of back of the van. All of which was photographed by someone in the Water St car park and a montage of the photo using Hether Heyers face used in a propaganda piece as a genuine photo of the event. Only The positioning and shadows are all wrong.
