andre bauer, we appreciate you coming on. thank you so much for your perspective. >> thank you. >>> well, u.s. attorney general jeff sessions has released a statement about the investigation into the violence in virginia. and he said this in part, the violence and deaths in charlottesville strike at the heart of american law and justice. when such actions arise from racial bigotry and hatred, they betray our core values and cannot be tolerated. former u.s. president barack obama quoted the late south a african icon nelson mandela. he tweeted this. no one is born hating another person because of the color of his skin or his background or his religion. people must learn to hate. and if they can learn to hate, they can be taught to love. for love comes more naturally to the human heart than its opposite. >>> up next, we're going to have much more on the violence that erupted in charlottsville, virginia, as a white supremacist rally including how the state's history played into saturday's protests and violence. and carbon fiber.
