(820 posts)liability of a driver who hit a protester with a car. Maybe the lunatic behind the wheel thought he was in a state where what he did was legal. Maybe that's his excuse.
Oh wait, that's only ok with the lunatics in the legislatures if you're white, not Muslim, and just prove you hit people without "malice."

(9,115 posts)All pushed by repug legislatures, as part of 18 states where repug lawmakers pushed bills to 'curb' protesting.
It's kinda like jade helm, except it's happening in reality, instead of happening in repuglinazis' heads only.

1. No such thing as a peaceful Nazi/racist.
2. The Khaki Klan Nazis carried shields & wore protective goggles and helmets. One was in a bike helmet. One was wearing swim goggles. I even saw makeshift sticks/spears. A few had on flak vests. If their intent was peaceful - why dress for battle?
3. The Nazi/Racists - some of them had makeshift shields big enough for more than one person to hide behind. A couple of them I saw were made from attached wooden doors. There were bars attached for the monsters to move and shift the equipment. I saw people tossing bottles and then ducking behind the homemade full body shield. This was the kind of large shield used for ramming forward - pushing people out of the way while attacking, and still being protected.
4. When a group of people get together to spout hate, they are doing it to rile people up. It's not to exercise a right. Sure, they have a legal right to express their views but they don't gather to celebrate that right - they gather to loudly proclaim their racism. To be able to use hate speech with their voices amplified through a microphone and media coverage. The more peaceful the event, the less coverage. Back to number 1 - there are NO peaceful nazis/racists.
They gather to intimidate. They gather to cause fear. They gather to let others know they are there. They gather as a warning.
