On that police stand-down in Charlottesville, there’s money to follow - Liberty Unyielding
The point
Nor is it a stretch to imagine that the vehicular attack could have been prevented entirely with such a scheme. It was because the counter-protesters were left to go wherever they wanted on the streets around the park, with no police controls in place, that James Fields was able to get at them with his Dodge Challenger.
What happened? Why weren't the police controlling the vehicle traffic and the exit paths for the protesters?
