Showing Original Post only (View all)Nazi armband, T-shirt worn by pair in Providence [View all]
"It's perfectly despicable and shameful, says the ACLU, but also perfectly lawful."
PROVIDENCE -- Sondra Pierson was having a glass of wine at Parkside Rotisserie & Bar after work last Thursday when she saw something outside the window that shocked her.
Everyone in the restaurant turned around, and they were like, What? Is that for real? she said this week.
A beat-up old Cadillac with Massachusetts plates had parked near the front of the restaurant, and a man and a woman wearing Nazi paraphernalia had gotten out.
The man wore a red Make America Great Again hat and a red armband with a black swastika on it. The woman wore a matching armband and a swastika T-shirt.
I said out loud, Are you kidding me? said Pierson, who lives in Pawtucket and works in an office right next to Parkside Rotisserie on South Main Street.
The swastika-wearing pair crossed the street to the Holocaust Memorial, leaned on the various statues, took pictures and laughed, Pierson said.

Oh, like the great Southern state of Ohio? And the bastion of the Confederacy, Indiana?

So if I move to your town/state do I automatically get a sense of superiority?
