I reached out to CJ after he was disinvited by Kessler. We established a dialog.
A week ago, I drove to Roanoke and gathered friends for a security detail. We agreed to meet in a park.
The meetup was heavily armed: I was carrying, as was my bodyguard and CJ's. We shook hands.
We talked for an hour about our political beliefs, what we did and didn't have in common, and both agreed the event was trouble.
We also agreed that white nationalism was the real issue, we both rejected it and knew it would lead to something bad.
From that, we came to an agreement: we would encourage everyone we knew not to instigate against one another.
Then we shook hands and left. Two people, opposite sides, both determined to fighr against Nazi ideology.
When I say I did everything in my power to make this non-violent, I want you to picture me and a threeper sitting at a picnic table, armed.
With no reason to trust each other. With armed security flanking us, watching each other.
We came out of that determined to do everything in our power to prevent bloodshed.
I don't agree with a lot of CJ's politics. But I knew he stood against Nazi shit and unchecked it would lead to disaster.
We both ended up on that street yesterday. We tried our damndest. I want to think we succeeded.
Really interesting, though I wish they mentioned that the group that got hit by the car was a separate non-violent march.
Good ending, tho :)
I'm really impressed that you met with him and made this agreement. Brave. I'm proud.
Wish I could’ve been there!!!! Just know support from Niagara Falls/Buffalo are with yous!!!!
