I think that the "attacks" on those "attacking" nazi slogans etc is to allow to paint a picture of the counter protesters as the bad guys and give the nazi folks credibility.
That is what our President did in both cases, and how I interpeted the OP of this thread. Do not allow anyone to know the motive behind the primary march, and then paint those who DID KNOW the purpose as the bad guys.
This is probably going to work. It will bring out more anti nazi people but that will be used over and over as an "excuse" for nazism.
I am glad you feel so comfortable with ignoring Nazi propoganda...that is how it was in the 1930's and keep in mind.
YOU CANNOT PUT THE CAP BACK ON THE BOTTLE ONCE IT IS OUT.
Free speech protects them for sure, but american values should ot allow it to become an accepted thing by our President or anyone.
Brown shirts, nazi slogans and signs, having boy scouts shout in cheers adoration for the President, led by the President should alarm every single american.
Remember, this Nazi movement was based on these marches, thESE cheers and rallies AND ATTACK ON THE MEDIA.
Sandtrap can speak for himself, but that is how I have seen this entire thread.
You can choose to not listen, they do have the right, but in my opinion, they do not need empowerment from anyone, especially the President who speaks for all of us.

Bucco,
You are more eloquent than I am - and those were my thoughts but not written as well as you did.
We must always speak out against any form of Nazism. Sitting back and ignoring it cannot be an option. If opposing hate speech is assaulting free speech, I will be assaulting it. I would be proud to have any and all who think the same linked arm in arm with me.
