  1. 1) Far right groups plan a protest in Charlottesville weeks before. Get official permission 2) Just days before, the mayor of Charlottesville decides to retract the permission for the protest 3) With help of the ACLU the organizers go to court and get the permission reinstated 4) During the protest the police refuse the Far right protestors access to the park where they were supposed to hold a speech 5) The police declare an unlawful assembly, something that was officially declared already at 10:00 AM, before much had happened 6) Less clear here, but apparently by denying them entrance, the Far-right groups had to go back through or very close to the left/far-left counter protestors. Police seems to be absent now even though having significant numbers (even heard there were more police than protestors) 7) Fights ensue between far right and far left groups like we've seen at Berkley 8) Far right guy decides to take revenge (or maybe he panicked, nobody really knows, but former is assumed) and drives a car into a crowd, killing one woman and wounding dozens of other people 9) Apparently unrelated, but a police helicopter crashes nearby, killing the 2 occupants 10) Media blames the far right for everything, (sometimes even implicitly for the 2 police officers in the helicopter crash). Portrays the far right as the only ones that engaged in violence 11) Trump is asked to denounce the far right, he does I think upto 3 times now, but also says violence happened on both sides 12) Media goes into a frenzy. Things of note: There was a survivalist/militant group there called the Oathkeepers. They carried assault rifles and were in military uniforms. People cite them as proof the right came armed to the teeth, but these people are basically LARP-ers, believing that one day they will have to safe guard the American people when the US government becomes tyrannical. (or something like that) I've heard there were about 500 far right protestors. They held a impromptu torch rally the evening before. There were some minor scuffles at the end of that between left and right wing protestors
