    The UK has free speech but also has strong anti-hate speech legislation, including social media. It's not that hard.

    So much for any hope that the Fuhrer might respond to the opposition on both sides and come out with a statement today. Doubling down.
    This is your guy, Trumpists.

    This guy is a Charlottesville lefty muckety-muck who, as you can see, resigned from the ACLU board yesterday. (If you read his feed, it does sound like he's pretty conflicted about it.)

    Trump has Bannon, Gorka and Miller in the White House. He and his idiot son retweet from alt-right sites. Among the initiatives he has undertaken are the immigration crackdown and affirmative action at colleges, two of the major rallying points of the alt-right.

    He can't decry them. Because he is them.

    They will use this right as a recruitment tool to advance their intention of doing large-scale, genocidal violence. This is not hypothetical, it happened in the last century of human history.

    They cannot have peaceful speech or assembly because their existence is inherently violent. The espousement of Nazi ideals is conspiracy to commit violence.

    The one person specifically used the word "allowed", as if there was some other option, like not allowing it.

    The second disputed that such actions are covered by the First Amendment.

    The left, as exhibited by Rickstain, absolutely would make illegal speech they do not like. Of course they would say they would limit it to Naziism, and then they would define all speech they don't like as Naziism.

    Rickstain, and others like him, are totalitarians. They just think they are doing it for the greater good.

    Have you seen some of the anger directed towards the ACLU of late, from the left?

    Well, her, and Rickstain.

    100%.

    And, until yesterday, only one side -- the antifa side -- had resorted to violence.

    I see you're not busy today.

    A young women was mowed down in cold blood and all you can do is use sweeping generalizations about leftiesand antifa.

    Deflect, deflect, deflect

    Be quiet and respectful while the Nazis talk.
