They crave the attention and notoriety that comes with the violence, so if you just allow them their rally without opposition..it isnt even news anymore and no one gets injured.

I agree with you to an extent. If it was some local Charlottesville people who were just protesting the removal of the Lee statue, that would be one thing. But bringing in all these out of town groups whose message is to rid the country of minorities, then I can see people wanting to show that they stand against that. The police did a surprisingly poor job of separating the rally and the counter rally though.
The city of Charlottesville, it's people and it's businesses are really hurting over this, and I really hope that this isn't the start of something that will continue over weeks or months.
