If you watched Vice News’ chilling, terrifying “Charlottesville: Race and Terror” episode, you’ll recognize Christopher Cantwell, lead Nazi and shit talker in the lead-up to the Charlottesville hate rally. If you haven’t seen the segment, watch it below. it is 1000 percent-required watching for all Americans, providing shocking insight into the minds of the white nationalists who marched in Virginia.
Much of the Vice episode focused on Cantwell, a white nationalist leader and one of the rally organizers. He can be seen in the video pouring milk over his face after he was maced and telling Elle Reeve of Vice News, “We’re not non-violent. We’ll fucking kill these people if we have to.”
Only a short time later, James Fields Jr. did kill one of those people when he plowed his car into counter-protesters, injuring nearly two dozen more.
Cantwell later told Reeves, “The fact that nobody on our side died, I’d call that points for us” and said he believed “a lot more people are going to die here.”
Fast forward to today, and what does tough guy and white nationalist Christopher Cantwell have to say now? Upon hearing the news that the police are looking for him, he released a tear-filled video, pleading for America to understand he was only talking shit before! He didn’t really mean it. Sure he was carrying a small arsenal of guns and told Vice he has been preparing and training for violence, but now? It was all locker room talk, right guys?
