    I saw no signs of nazis in the video i saw of those there ahead of the protest. I saw some carrying guns, but no nazis.
    And that in your own words sums up why Democrats/their supporters, get so many things wrong. When they don't get it, they attack.

    Well if you claim so. I don't use that standard. My standard is being honest and telling the truth, as i did.

    And historically they have had a lot in common. Much of the progressive movement praised Mussolini and Hitler - until the Hitler/Stalin Pact collapsed.
    But what passes for left and right today are an odd collection of political contortionists. So far, though violent, neither extreme is nearly as deadly as the 20th century originals. It is hard to sell Fascism/National Socialism/Communism in a nation that is already afraid of their Big Government.

    “Record High in U.S. Say Big Government Greatest Threat, Now 72% say it is greater threat than big business or big labor”, by Jeffrey M. Jones, Gallup, 12/18/13.

    What do you think this means?
    BTW that's also the reality on the national political stage. Most Republicans don't support or endorse these idiots.

    I didn't see fights breaking out on tv with those people waving their assault rifles around.
    I did see them without it. So yeah... terrorism worked.

    That is quiet inappropriate when in a topic about the nazi's marching through the streets of the US with assault rifles waving around,.. killing one and getting over a dozen mangled in the hospital.

    Funny but this rally would have gone unnoticed but for the liberal obsession with race and trying to tie Trump to it. These rallies happen every year.

    Well then what you said that I was responding to was inappropriate so you can withdraw it or response to what I asked.

    And the alt-Left and BLM and riots to shut down conservative speakers have all been the epitome of public safety and peaceful non-violence?

    Tell me about the other murders at these occasional ones you assert. When were these occasions when alt-Right members purposely organized to violently shut down an alt-Left demonstrations and who was killed?

    There would have been no riots, no injuries, no deaths and the alt-Left not gone their to violently shut down the permitted lawful political demonstration.

    That's the elephant in the room the left doesn't want to discuss, heck they will hot even admit that the alt-Left were the ones that instigated it and outnumbered the alt-Right by about 10-1 from what I have heard. There were only 200 alt-Right from the entire country there.

    Here's a thought I've had, owing to the hysterical opprobrium leveled at president Trump for not mentioning 'the extreme right' (nobody ever criticises the extreme left, I note - why is that?? [​IMG] - like we don't know? lol ): is it a possibility, in its collective desire to be rid of president Trump, that members of Congress will from now on insist that he forwards to them any public pronouncement he wishes to make first, in order to gain approval for the speech, and then to add to his humiliation, they'll then go on and insist that he has to use the words that they want him to use rather than his own choice of words, and only then will he be allowed to broadcast them? Well it would seem to be the next logical step??

    It's where liberals get all their self righteous indignation ... They find an obscure bog, or social media account that has like a dozen followers before liberals start "clicking" & "sharing" ... Then when they've driven the hit counter up to 100K they assert it's a wide spread "right wing" racist conspiracy.

    You never heard of Stormfront before 2015? You're kidding, right? It started something like 25 years ago as part of one of David Duke's political campaigns. and it's been widely known about - worldwide, in fact - for decades. It's been discussed in every medias outlet for decades. It's been referenced in discussions about anti-Semitism and Holocaust denial. Stormfront is not an inconsequential site and never has been.

    I've never heard of stormfront before joining this board. When people on this board started tossing that name around as something other members and myself should belong to I finally took a look at what it was about and realized I was being called a racist.
