The group of more than a dozen masked individuals marched wearing red shirts and black pants, waving flags with swastikas on them. It is not clear at this time who the group is or affiliated with, though many of the shirts said “Blood Tribe.”

    Free speech absolutism goes way too far.

    Nazis marching is an implicit threat of violence and should be treated as such.

      Meanwhile Pelosi is accusing anyone who’s critical of U.S. support for Israel as being a Russian plant. Here’s a crazy idea, instead of considering walking back free speech rights in the name of security we try something less drastic? Like I don’t know, maybe electing someone different than Biden in the 2020 primaries? Maybe not blocking worker strikes? Maybe not sending weapons to a country using them to commit war crimes?

      Let’s try all those things first before we jump to removing first amendment rights.
