Hey dude, shouldn't your alt right buddies be given the chance to make their argument for a moral equivalence between fascism and the progressive left? Don't you think there should be a special place for the likes of the KKK and Neo-Nazi groups in mainstream American society? Why shut them down?

Will the First Amendment become as controversial as the Second Amendment? I am seriously starting to wonder. One journalist advocates a more "creative" and "holistic" approach to protecting free speech:"The American Civil Liberties Union has a long history of defending the First Amendment rights of groups on both the far left and the far right. This commitment led the organization to successfully sue the city of Charlottesville, Va., last week on behalf of a white supremacist rally organizer. The rally ended with a Nazi sympathizer plowing his car into a crowd, killing a counterprotester and injuring many."After the A.C.L.U. was excoriated for its stance, it responded that 'preventing the government from controlling speech is absolutely necessary to the promotion of equality.'... "The A.C.L.U. needs a more contextual, creative advocacy when it comes to how it defends the freedom of speech. The group should imagine a holistic picture of how speech rights are under attack right now, not focus on only First Amendment case law."https://www.nytimes.com/2017/08/17/opinion/aclu-first-amendment-trump-charlottesville.html
“Being President Doesn’t Change Who You Are, It Reveals Who You Are”Michelle Obama.So with Trump we are seeing what he really is. A racist, misogynist, arrogant, dumbass bully. Nothing will change with him.This myth that America is somehow the 'Land of the Free' is hilarious. People feel fine spouting the First Amendment and Second Amendment when they have something to point out, but in reality, it is all bollocks.
"BLM and Anifa didn't start anything."If they weren't there, wouldn't nothing have happened? Like a tree falling in a forest? Nazi's protest, Nazi's go home.
The guy who helped President Donald Trump write his seminal book, The Art of the Deal, said the former reality-TV star will soon leave the White House on his own accord.In a series of tweets Wednesday, Tony Schwartz—who co-authored the 1987 book that helped define the real estate magnate's public image—said he thought the walls were closing in on Trump and he would soon leave office in an attempt to save face. Later, he wrote in a series of three tweets that Trump's end would come before the year was out. "The circle is closing at blinding speed. Trump is going to resign and declare victory before Mueller and congress leave him no choice," Schwartz tweeted. "Trump's presidency is effectively over. Would be amazed if he survives till end of the year. More likely resigns by fall, if not sooner."

You're racist and you don't like black people very much. Just admit it and everyone can move on, quit hiding behind all the drivel you post
The sort of person who appreciates Tiki torches just for their aesthetic appeal?

Open carry must be legal in Virginia.
Well a few months ago we were lucky no one was killed when a lefty opened fire on U.S. Congressmen, or have we all forgotten that?Not to mention this all started with antifa people attacking people attending presentations by guest speakers who while they might be considered "hard right", are not considered White Nationalists/Nazis.
Weimer says Fields was intelligent and didn't cause trouble. But he says the quiet boy was also deeply into Adolf Hitler and white supremacy.
Most of the GOP is keeping their heads down and trying to ride this thing out. But not Trump. He's not easily intimidated.
Another presidential advisory committee is breaking up.Actor Kal Penn, artist Chuck Close and the entire membership of the President's Committee on the Arts and the Humanities have announced their resignation. A letter dated Friday, and signed by 16 of 17 committee members, cited the "false equivalence" of President Donald Trump's comments about last weekend's "Unite the Right" gathering in Charlottesville, Virginia. Trump has blamed "many sides" for the demonstrations that left an anti-racism activist dead.The White House said Trump had already decided against renewing the advisory committee for budgetary reasons."Ignoring your hateful rhetoric would have made us complicit in your words and actions," the letter reads. "Supremacy, discrimination, and vitriol are not American values. Your values are not American values. We must be better than this. We are better than this. If this is not clear to you, then we call on you to resign your office, too."The only member whose name did not appear was Broadway director George C. Wolfe. Representatives for Wolfe at Creative Arts Agency said Friday that he was also resigning and that his name would be added to the letter, which seemed to contain a hidden political message beyond the ones stated openly. The first initials of the letter's six main paragraphs spell out "r-e-s-i-s-t."
"Trump’s overall disapproval rate is 51 percent, but he’s still holding strong among Republicans. His disapproval rate has not substantially changed all year. Charlottesville didn’t affect it....
