(46,322 posts)That's not really a good way to deal with these ditwits, but I'm not surprised the neo-Nazi got his bell rung.

It won't stop at just punching. Are we ready for that?

I don't support vigilante justice, I'd much rather the system deal with these people, but goddammit, it's *really* hard not to feel a sense of satisfaction when you see a Nazi get punched in the face, especially when you read the backstory on this guy.

(18,124 posts)who think their skin color makes them superior, want us, all resistors to white supremacy, DEAD. Ask the families of Heather Heyer, the Charleston 9 whether their loved ones are dead or not at the hands of real and wannabe klan members.. In some cases PROACTIVE, is necessary.

(16,296 posts)"the unidentified Nazi was first spotted riding on a bus, where witnesses say he was harassing a black passenger. From there, anti-fascist activists used social media to track the mans whereabouts, and he was eventually spotted on a street corner in the downtown area.
While there, he got into a confrontation with unidentified people who objected to him walking around wearing a Nazi arm band. At one point, one man punched the neo-Nazi directly in the face, which knocked him onto the sidewalk."

Seems like he wanted a confrontation and he got it

Bet he would smile at that punch.

(2,824 posts)for providing evidence that the entire Democratic and Left wing supporters are VIOLENT thugs. This will be widely distributed. This is not a good choice to post on DU's video forum.

I agree violence is not the best course, but I understand how the puncher feels. Since he didn't kick him while the bigot was down, I'd vote to acquit if a juror.

(27,742 posts)transportation 2 men were stabbed to death. These people were simply taking out the trash before it started to rot.
It's too bad, but this is the way it works in the Northwest.

(1,967 posts)then how should we deal with them? They, by virtue of being Nazis, want all non-whites to be killed, and you too if you are a Democrat.
And as far as the Reich wingers claiming the left is violent, they will claim this regardless of what we do. If the most violent thing we did was give them each a bouquet of flowers, they would still say the left is violent.

Ever done ANY of those things? Yes, those are non-violent crimes unlike punching someone.
But then, how is one supposed to treat a Nazi bully? Bully cop? An innocent Black killing cop?
Do they all get off free?

(2,824 posts)Comparing a violent act- Assault and Battery with marajuana possession (a misdemenor in my state) is a very weak argument. Tracking someone down and punching them is possibly a felony.

(3,384 posts)But, as offensive as it is, is the punch in the face as morally bankrupt as the promotion of an idea and political party that rounded up a group of people and sent them off like animals to be killed? Yeah, I know.. Perhaps more, yes, a felony most likely.
Who walks around with swastika arm band that isn't looking for a confrontation?
vkkv
(3,384 posts)He who walks around in public with a Nazi insignia arm band pretty much deserves whatever punishment he gets.
Our relatives DIED fighting (killing) those idiots, so really, what's a punch in the face?
