I have a few extra bucks.
That’s how it’s properly done when a Nazi-puncher gets caught: rule of law, due process, jury of peers, etc. If Nazis can identify their assailants and want to press assault charges they’re welcome to do so (most of those fascist cowards don’t).
Anyone wringing their hands about Nazi-punching leading to chaos and running street battles needs to understand that this is not Weimar Germany.
I almost put that in the post!
Maybe Nazis could use this approach as a fundraising tactic for their cause. Like a kissing booth at a carnival, but with punches.
All joking aside, the misdemeanor assault conviction might cause some friction for him if he has a job search, but any place that is willing to read the “please explain” portion of that application will get to hear a hero tell a great story.
That’s a gofundme I can get behind.
I’m only cool with that if it’s funding the people punching the Nazi’s
Where can I send my donation to his legal fund? lol
that would be like Buridan’s ass for me. I don’t want to give Nazis money but I do want to punch them.
Ahhh. That gif is so soothing.
There is precedence.
I think your idea of a booth could bankrupt a lot of people. I’m adjusting my budget.
Sometimes, the system can work.
So long as you’re white and personable.
True. I still support more white people punching Nazis.
I agree with all three of you!
