Man calling for “peaceful ethnic cleansing” gets attacked

[Ahovv]

Few things more American or patriotic than punching Nazis.


Unless you are Ahovv, then you might feel sympathy for them.

I can state without hesitation that our freedom of speech is more patriotic than punching those you get triggered by.

[Anevers]

Punching Nazis is a god damn American tradition.

If you don't like punching Nazis then you can just get out!

OK, violence is never the answer. But Captain America and Indiana Jones punching Nazis did draw some parallels for me. I'm not sure how to feel about this one. Maybe less punching and more ignoring their hate? By assaulting this guy you've given him another platform to spew his hateful and racist views from the inevitable interviews he's going to get.

Like ok honestly I'd feel differently if the guy had like broken his skull in or something but Spencer more than deserves to get his face bruised.

On the day of the presidential inauguration the most American thing happened. Somebody punched a Nazi in their fucking racist piece of shit face and I applaud the man. Sorry you don't talk to a Nazi especially one like Richard Spencer. A good blast to the face is the least he deserves.

What does "Peaceful Ethnic Cleansing" even mean?

Basically just forcing people out of certain areas. He wants to make a new state or nation in which only whites are allowed but he doesn't want a violent cleanse. He wants to just make a boundary and say "Hey you... no non-whites past here"

This is from reading about him from OP's link.

Well government didn't punch him so.....

Rabid thug leftist. Spencer will need more security at the next event.

Best comment under the Youtube video: MAKE NAZIS AFRAID AGAIN.

Maybe get them some kind of uniform.

Freedom of speech protects Spencer from being thrown in jail.

Has nothing to do with being punched. That's just regular assault law.

Ignoring their hatred is stupid and dangerous. People have been ignoring it for years and now when it's in the government and given a chunk of the media pie we're only now reacting.

I've got a better and longer lasting solution to white supremists. I'm gonna make babies with a non white guy.

[alexw]

What a fuckin' savage. Hope he ends up in prison.

Unfortunately I don't think Spencer can get arrested for this though he deserves to for encouraging violence.

Late 30's Nazi rhetoric.

Gas people but do it quietly.

[Deleted]

Didn't hit him on the tip of the jaw, certainly not a boxer.

[alexw]

Assault is a crime, last time I checked.

I don't think Richard Spencer could be charged with encouraging assault. But you never know.

[Milchshake]

We wear orange laces or yellow.

[pathora44]

Maybe get them some kind of uniform.

Ya black or gray uniforms with a distinct red armband with a corrupted ancient symbol by a self hating monster.

What does "Peaceful Ethnic Cleansing" even mean?

My guess? Eugenics or possibly selective breeding (aka if you aren't the right race you can't have kids/sterilized)

[inboundpaper]

That's one way to take pepe back.

Yup the day you start talking to a shit head like that is the day you start to normalize his views.

You don't talk to people like that. You do what that patriotic American did. You punch him in the face.
