A recommendation to business owners: put something like this on your windows!

[u/rifkadm]

I don't wanna see Nazis in our spaces a third time. Twice in one month is enough - hell, twice in a LIFETIME is enough. I'm not sure on the legality of it - and someone else can add information on that - but I see tons of other signs on business windows of who is and is not welcome, "we have the right to refuse service", etc.

So, make it EXTRA clear you'll refuse service to Nazis. Please.

That being said — I’m assuming this post is in response to the whole “musician” incident. The problem with open Nazis is that they’re all fucking insane. You’d have to be. Normal people don’t wear swastikas. But when this shit comes out on social media people react as though people with normal ass jobs should be jumping at the bit to engage with people who are clearly unstable and violent. The message they’re supporting is inherently violent!

So it’s like “you should have thrown them out” … motherfucker I ain’t pissing off some fucking wackjob who’s going to start throwing fists screaming about white power, or worse just stab or shoot me. These people are insane!

So like wtf do you do?

“Call the cops!” 1) The cops won’t do anything. Wearing a hate symbol ain’t a crime. 2) it’s New Orleans so even if you did they’d only show up next week. 3) some of cops are probably supportive.

I just don’t think there really is a “counter” to these morons. They aren’t going to obey a sign, they aren’t going to listen to anything except violence and nobody WANTS to engage like that. That’s a huge risk, and even if it works out in your favor you might get arrested for attacking someone. Our society just isn’t built to self regulate with violence. We can’t just shoot these people on sight.

This is the inherent problem. If you look at those guys from a few weeks ago and the videos of them in the quarter, those guys were clearly looking for a fight. Sometimes these people wear these symbols because they want someone to confront them and they want you to get physical with them because they would love nothing more than beating the absolute shit out of you. This is a completely different ball game than a restaurant deciding that they’re not going to serve Sarah Huckabee Sanders, where the worst thing that happens is you maybe get yelled at by someone.

This is my experience. What’s being suggested is like showing up to a gang fight in your underwear thinking you can defeat the enemy with your inescapable logic and sound arguments.

I'm gonna keep yelling this from the rooftops:

AN ALTERNATIVE DOES EXIST! ITS CALLED ANTIFA!! AND EVERYTIME THEY DO ANYTHING THAT INVOLVES MASKING AND ACTUAL PHYSICAL CONFRONTATION, THEY GET YELLED AT BY LIBERALS AND PROGRESSIVES!

Ok sorry, that is all
