These people know if they are recognized, their lives are over socially and job-wise.

So at least the organizer would be known. And gee they got permission? If not why aren't they being shut down or arrested.

Reporters better do their job and at least see who took out the permit.

The precedent was set at the of the Revolution/1st Civil.War. Many states refused to restore their estates even thought the Treaty of Paris (1783) Included it. Many fled, including smart Black American Loyalists. Smart to take the deal the British was offering them.

They are duchebags all, shitbags who hide behind masks, but like the Klan, and Nazi groups, they also have protections of the Constitution.

Do I hope lightning strikes them, a tree limb falls on them, heat stroke, yes to all, act of god or self inflicted injury, but I will also protect their right to protest no matter how abhorrent. I brought my daughter to a nazi march at the capitol years ago so she could understand what the First Amendment actually means and she ended up writing her college essay on the expierence. It is an odd lesson but one I will continue to protect.

Their ilk has been bludgeoning the United States over the head with their ideology since 1877.

Too many believe the 1st Amendment allows for the Confederate Flag and its ideology.

Within that Group - there are many that compare the CSA's rise and dominance in our country in 2016 to the Third Reich.

Know which country limits the speech of illiberal hate filled murderous white people?

You guessed it - Germany.

I'm 53. The universe willing I'll live long enough to see them, their language, and their symbols outlawed.

The end of white supremacy in the US is being accelerated .

Take Black Americans alone. We no longer find this ideology, symbols and speech acceptable. Every day we have opportunities to convert the Latino, Asian - non-white communities.

If you are a white Leftist and this makes you u comfortable or causes distress - sit with WHY that is.

Then again -I want to burn it all down and Build A Better America that outlaws AmeriKKKans. This country did the same thing to Loyalists at the end of the Revolution/First Civil War.

I'd be interested to know how many of those little traitors descended from Ellis Island immigrants. . . the ones who stole jobs and prosperity from Black people one generation away from enslavement.

That means they transferred to the red line to get to Union Station. They WANTED those pictures taken. This was organised.

My question is: where did they go after the march? What are they up to? Tiki torches again?
