charlottesville is not out of the woods. this violence that encourages he's guys, you know, you can trace this back in the near term to the mother emanual church where dillon roof murdered pastor pink any and the con gre gants there. that was a hate crime. to elm bold enthis white nationalist movement. these guys all say that. you know, i hope my crime, my death will spur the movement. and in fact, it does. it elm bold ens them. and then what happened after that was, you know, good people want to take down the symbols of hate, the confederate stat use or flags. and we saw all that play out in south carolina, kracross the soh in new orleans. that's what's happening there today. the same thing. they're emboldened by violence, strength end by these fights and everything the political leader said there was just right. but the chance man and the neo nazis don't hear any of that. don't think that's going to change them. that's not going to change them. >> you make a great point. when we think about i was on the ground there for wh

what we're hearing from the city of charlottesville is that charlottesville police have taken the driver of that vehicle into custody. another update we have is that a total of 35 people were injured today. of course we have the one fatality that occurred in this particular ramming incident. this is something, to put it in context, like you say, that has been building for quite a while. there was a protest here on july 8th involving the kkk at that same park having to do with the possible removal of robert e. lee park. it used to be called robert e. lee park. there was clashes during that rally and this rally came up and police told us on friday they were going to prepare and take lessoned learned from the rally on july 8th and apply them to this one. what we saw were police in a parking lot across from the street in the park. they did not get involved initially when the clashes broke out between the unite the right rally and the counter-protesters, eventually they did clear out the park. everybody sort of disbursed. at that point, the counter-protesters had made their way down to this a

and neo nazis who clashed with the anti racism protesters in charlottesville. i can point and again every. city where they continue your. demonstrations also took place in other major cities including seattle chicago baltimore and san francisco to show support of charlottesville thousands took part in the multi-faith vigils and rallies across the country you are standing with one hundred other groups across the country today and these that are doing the exact same thing telling people that we are going to put up with that craft and have been in chinatown this week. and i look to my left and i saw how their higher lying on the ground and i saw the life pass from arise and i watched. it from that moment on ice words myself that i would not stop the fight against white supremacy i would never let this happen again i would never let another person die. because of white supremacy because of domestic terrorism although many of them were separate demonstrations they all shared a similar message. states of america. were you. people at that point or are right right. mea

#charlottesville. it's important to note here, boris, as we've been saying for some time now that we finally did hear from the president and vice president, but after hearing from a number of other officials, republican-elected officials and even another member of the first family. we heard from first lady melania trump about the violence in charlottesville even before we heard from the president and vice president. we also heard from speaker paul ryan, speaker of the house. we've heard from the chairwoman of the republican national committee, all of those responses coming before we heard from the man in charge, the president. we usually expect to see presidents traditionally trying to calm and soothe tensions in a situation like this. i do think one other thing is notable about these two tweets now from the president, in neither of them does he explicitly condemn the white nationalists who organized this demonstration and the demonstration last night in charlottesville that we're now seeing resulting

this is not a charlottesville issue. this is a lot of people using charlottesville and some of it internally, some of our local politicians have gained a national standing for it but it is a lot a platform building. host: we're talking with joe charlottesville, having this conversation for the next 25 minutes or so. if you want to join in for the -- --sation, a special line for charlottesville residents in 8003.egment, 202748 joe thomas, take us through your day. what did you see on saturday? guest: violence. anger. brought up by people who were there. the people who wound up so angry , what puzzled me was once you separated them from the mob mentality that calmed down. as long as they were in groupthink, they were in this hypersensitive state of i am in a mob and i have to go along with the mob. when you separated them, i have personal experience with a young man from black lives matter who nearly came to blows with me because with all irony, he call the call -- he saw the color of my skin and thought i must be a racist

police are everywhere in this town of charlottesville. the largest deployment of virginia state troopers in decades. they are everywhere in this town. the county police are everywhere. they are determined not to have a repeat of this and they have essentially declared all of this an unlawful gathering. the question is, will they come back? back to you. >> the governor in his statement was pretty determined in saying, go home, get out, there's really no place for you here, especially with these types of views. tom, when it comes to the crash site, i know that's some distance outside of charlottesville, but have police said or any investigators given any intelligence as to the cause of this crash? i know that it was an aircraft that was being used to monitor the white nationalist rally. >> it was a bell helicopter. i apologize. i don't have the model in front of me. it was a bell and state trooper helicopter. there's no indication that that was brought down by fire. in other words, by somebody firing on the chopper. we believe preliminarily

charlottesville is not completely shut down although there is a state of emergency. the mood there of the counter protests he said some of them who have been injured how they responded to what. the soul to pawn some of the numbers. it is just it's just very somber here a lot of people crying a lot of people have friends that were that were hit by that car and just just all around sadness you know you know typically at a protest if if the police will ask you to get on the sidewalk protesters will say no i mean everyone was comply and everyone was just trying to do the best thing that they could do at that time for the injured people it seems. and how would you describe the scene today we heard the previous incidents as well just how violent how's this protest being. sure i mean there was not a good number of chemicals being sprayed there was pepper spray of there. i'm sorry i apologize my camera man. there was a a large number of pepper spray being shot from both sides at each other eyes i saw of people hitting each other with holes i saw a lot of people with just wha

kaylee hartung is in charlottesville right now. the mayor just tweeted that at least one person is dead as a result of today's violence. do you know what that fatality is yet from the car crash or from the earlier violence? >> reporter: we have not yet been able to confirm that, ana. but as we have described the violence that was seen in this town last night, a torch literally through the university of virginia's campus by the national supremacists who gathered here. chemicals were being dispersed and then at the emansiation park where the statue of robert e. lee stands the center of this controversy. we saw the poles of flags used as weapon, bottles flying through the air. smoke bombs going off and pepper spray used by both sides. but that does not compare to the violence that unfolded behind me as you have seen the video of that car plowing into a group of counterprotesters. we do not yet know the result of that collision. as you said the mayor has tweeted there's one life lost. he said that i'm heartbroken that a life has been l
