So apparently someone punched this guy in the face during an interview. i'll be looking for more details, but at first glance, it doesn't look good. let's not empower the gun crazies any more than they are. please. also, its not nice to punch people.

    I agree violence certainly isn't the answer. I've been reading horrible comments about the white dress Melania wore at the inauguration ball. Some were justifying by saying they did it to *Michelle*, that is so ridiculous. It's just makes one no better than the other side. Melania looked great to me, in any dress she would look elegant. If she came out there nekid she would look good, wait did that make any sense? :blush:

  • Punching Nazis is always a good thing. Keep doing it.
    There is nothing to see here.

    he published an article arguing for the elimination of "the black race". I don't condone violence, but I can see why someone would do it to a guy like him.

    I think it is.

    I saw one good tweet. It went something like this: Guys... when we punch Nazis... we become just like them. Wait... I just checked... no, no we don't.

    I tend to agree. I have punched and been punched and it is not usually a huge deal, though it can be.

    I was pretty miffed at the Trumpbillies sucker-punching peaceful protesters, so I am a little hesitant to accept it, even for a Nazi.
    If dude said, "hey you fucking Nazi, put your fucking dukes up!" and then proceeded to bash him up, I would not just condone, but celebrate it!

    I am generally against violence, but simple fistfights don't bother me too much.

    Probably won't, but it will make us feel good.

    This is where I am. I'm not sad a Nazi got punched. But I'm not sure this will do anything except rally the nazis. And I also think sucker punching is a p*ssie move. If you want to punch someone, at least have balls enough to confront them. Hopefully Spencer got a black eye, and hopefully the p*ssie who sucker punched him will be caught and cited.

    He deserves worse than that. I will celebrate when those like him and Cheney kick the bucket.

    Nothing wrong with punching racists and anti-semites. Especially when they are public about their hatred.

    Regardless of his history... he gets a t-shirt for this vulgar display of power.

    And of course he would never square up, instead a cheap shot and run.

    Spencer wants America to become a white ethno-centric nation. Spencer declared in 2013, "We need an ethno-state so that our people can 'come home again,' can live amongst family and feel safe and secure," per the Washington Post. Spencer's desire for the white ethno-state stems from his racist belief "that Hispanics and African Americans have lower average IQs than whites and are more genetically predisposed to commit crimes," according to Mother Jones.

    I don't like people getting punched. But even more, I don't like Nazis.

    i still feel it would be better to sit the guy down and just have a candid discussion. his moronic viewpoints would come out in short time. If you take the time to watch this all the way through, you'll see what i'm talking about.

    When did the guy who had a thread posting seizure in the weeks after the election develop a sense of reasoning with someone like this guy?
