Nazis disrupt Detroit gay pride parade

[Telconi]

ITT person with horrifyingly terrible political beliefs is mad at others for having horrifyingly terrible political beliefs.

Wow, you really DESTROYED me with FACTS and LOGIC by equating me to Nazis. 10/10 as always, Tel.

Wanting to create another Charlottesville incident is perfectly legal and definitely not incitement to violence or conspiracy to commit murder, obviously.

As we all know, the Nazis actually came to Detroit's Pride Parade with rifles and other weapons to celebrate the hardships and struggles the LGBTQ+ community has had to face historically and still faces every day! They totally wouldn't've caused harm to anyone if the police weren't there to act as security, because we all know the Nazis have the best track record ever when it comes to the LGBTQ+ community!

Unfortunately we both know I haven't. You'll still be here, advocating horrors tomorrow.

[Diopolis]

I don't think anyone is saying they wouldn't.

What is the purpose of these bands of armed thugs to show up at Detroit Pride with rifles then? Could they have protested the event without coming armed to the teeth and looking to shoot things up? Should the state endeavour for the sake of every citizen under its protection to prevent bands of armed thugs from intimidating other citizens?

They would have risked attack from antifa.

It's probably not obvious to you, but I'm kinda dying of laughter at my desk right now due to the sheer stupidity of this statement.

[Fartsniffage]

Sure it is. Conspiracy is a thing in US law.

Conspiracy requires more than just wanting to do something:

Like deciding to kill people then carrying a weapon?

[Novus America]

Wanting to do something is not a crime. We do not have thought police.
And if they commit a crime toss them in jail for life. Or hang them after a fair trial.

Lethal injection, firing squad, and the electric chair are all still options (depending on where you are in the US), but hanging isn't.

“Hang them” is a generic term for the death penalty as well.
Also it is a legal method in New Hampshire.

That's unfortunate.

Oh, if two people agreed to commit a murder, and walked out with a gun, yes that would likely be conspiracy. But do you have proof they agreed to commit a murder instead of trying to look scary? If you do please contact the Michigan State Police.

Maybe for you. Luckily for me, as I know I'm not actually anywhere remotely morally equivalent to Nazis like you're trying to paint me as, it's incredibly stress-relieving.

[Necroghastia]

So you have to do something like, for example, plan a mass murder, get some weapons, and go to the place where you're planning to commit said crime?

I don't. And you know that.

I was simply arguing against your position that simply wanting to commit a crime isn't a crime in and of itself. It can be. You can want to commit a crime and not break any laws and still be arrested and successfully prosecuted.

[Jakker]

You know, the activities antifa engages in when they're not shutting down whole cities for no discernible reason. Should all be put up against a wall and shot like the threat to public order they are.

[Nova Cyberia]

It's funny when you realize that Torra wants them arrested despite not actually breaking any laws.

Sounds pretty authoritarian, tbqh.

You know if an armed band of Nazis with assault rifles barged into the street we would call it an insurrection...
Apparently not in America though

Because they're American citizens and, like every other American citizen, they have 2nd Amendment rights.

This isn't WW2. We aren't at war with Nazis right now.

Absolutely they could have shown up without a few carrying guns.
But open carry is apparently legal in Detroit.

I mean you could ban open carry altogether, but not just for certain groups.
Though I would not do it over this.

And yes, the state did exactly what it was supposed to do.
Heavy police presence is a good way to protect parades.

You know someone actually needs to commit a crime before you can arrest them.

I know this irritates you, but it's true. Arbitrary arrest is tyranny.

Hmm, yes, let's stop the Nazis after they've begun accomplishing their goals. From what I remember, in fact, I remember that that went perfectly swimmingly the last time we waited until the Nazis began committing atrocities to stop them!

Not really. You can think and want whatever you want.
A conspiracy of one is impossible (though a great name of an Offspring album).
Agreeing to commit a crime with another person and taking some ACTION towards it is a crime though.

Hm, if only we had government agencies whose job it is to deal with threats to national security.

Something like an FBI or a Department of Homeland Security...

So, what would you have done to everyone who identifying themselves as a "Neo-Nazi"? Would you support hunting a witch-hunt?

Y'know, it's really weird, but I could've sworn a second ago you were calling the use of state apparatuses to stop Nazis "authoritarian". Funny how your tune changes when you think you can pull a """clever""" "gotcha!" and circlejerk about AntiFA.

These neo Nazis are not those Nazis.
Yes Nazis are disgusting people with evil beliefs. But most are just edgy wannabes.
Sure we absolutely should keep an eye on them, have police infiltrate their groups, and arrest them if the actually commit a crime, including conspiracy and...

Shit I think we did this about a thousand times!

If you have evidence these guys were planning a crime contact the Michigan State Police with said evidence.

Get rid of them by whatever means are necessary to do so.

You want to arbitrarily arrest people. I don't.

I just think all your hysteria over Nazis is funny when we have dedicated and well-funded government agencies whose entire job it is to protect us from extremist organizations.

Guess we don't need Antifa after all.

Also, nice failed attempt at a gotcha lmao
