Why are you an apologist for these thugs? They beat people up and worse because of the colour of their skin, their religious faith, their sexuality and you are questioning the right to punch them back? why?

To defend yourself of course. Is that what Antifa do? Act in self-defense?

I've answered this loads of times lfc.

I couldn't give a stuff about the statue. Or any other statue.
The bleedin' statue doesn't matter.
The statue was an excuse for a bit of agro.
Which was what they got.

They didn't care about the statue either.

I cannot make this ANY simpler.

This statue, the statue in Russia or wherever else you're rambling about, the statue of the mannequin pis in Brussels, none of them, I couldn't give a stuff.
NO-ONE could, except apparently you.

IS THAT CLEAR ENOUGH?

Obama isn't in power, I know nothing of the person or job you're talking about.
Loads of people get paid too much for dodgy jobs. It could well be wrong, I don't know.

NO, I don't think the opposition to the Nazi supporting 'protesters' should go to jail, I think the Nazis shoiuldn't be allowed to 'protest'.

This thread was about the "Alt Right" rally. not all this other rubbish.

I haven't got a problem with anyone who holds deep set views. I just find the tenet of your writing is to deny wrong things are going on and making out it is the liberal elite and the media trying to brain washus.

You are the poster boy apologists for a President who is disgracing the American flag. You appear to be supporting the right of armed thugs to march into towns and intimidate people at best and mete out horrific violence

I wont stand back and allow that view to go unchallenged. When Nazi sympathisers or defenders raise their ugly heads I will stand up and question them. That is why I have so many questions for you.

No one cared enough? I do not know the answer to that. People cared enough to put it up in the first place. But I think they have the right to protest if they want to and get a permit to do so.

Your second point on these 'particular people'. 'They would be imprisoned rather than protesting if the world was a better place.' To do that you need to define it and make a law to do it that society accepts. For instance you could make having a nazi flag a criminal offence.

You cannot just have a loose definition though as this could be used to round up and detain anyone the current authorities do not like.
