I'd love to see these guys start appearing in the white suburbs around the state.

Notice they had no hate speech signage? Not exactly the same thing this isn't racism, it's defending against threats.

My post was specifically regarding the sentence you typed, as quoted, and has absolutely nothing to do with the protestors in Lansing.

For the record, I support peaceful protests on all sides but abhor the behaviors (and their messages) from some of the people in attendance in Lansing during recent weeks.

I'm also a hvge fan of irony.

Whenever you refer to someone as a Nazi, you lose the argument unless they murdered 6 million people.

Does this apply to lefties calling Trump a Nazi?
Voting for Trump is dumber than playing Russian Roulette with fully loaded chambers.

It applies to anyone using the term with the following conditions: if they are wearing Nazi emblems, German WWII uniforms, waving Nazi flags, etc., they can be called Nazis. Adopt the image, accept the label.

I appreciate the consistency.

I do have to disagree with the accepting the lable comment though. Most people who dress up like Nazis are too fucking stupid to realize the implications.

So it’s like wearing a Red Wings Jersey? The Nazi team gear you’re saying?

Dress up for racists, you should feel more comfortable when you wear your costume.
