The White House has condemned an incident over the weekend in which a group of masked individuals with Nazi flags marched through the streets of Columbus, Ohio.

White House spokesperson Andrew Bates said in a statement President Joe Biden "abhors the hateful poison of Nazism, Antisemitism, and racism," which he called "hostile to everything the United States stands for, including protecting the dignity of all our citizens and the freedom to worship."

"Hate directed against any of us is a threat to every single one of us," Bates said. "This sickening display comes during a tragic rise in Antisemitic rhetoric and violence that is a crises the American people should all come together against. That is why President Biden launched and continues to act on the first ever national strategy to fight Antisemitism in American history.”

On Saturday afternoon, a group of unidentified individuals marched through Columbus wearing black and carrying flags with swastikas on them. The individuals were also "armed with firearms," according to the Columbus Police Department.

1. they've been emboldened by Trump's rhetoric and his victory

They feel their American age of Nazism is nigh, and looking at all the Nazis the Republicans have selected, I'm not sure I can blame them.

4. Not all Fuckface voters are Nazis, but all Nazis voted for Fuckface.

2. When they march, masked and proudly displaying their symbols

of nazi philosophy, AND they are armed... can't we shoot them, one by one, as threats to the country, as well as personal threats? Does anyone NOT feel threatened by nazi symbols and weapons on any one person? Wouldn't that be standing our ground? Maybe if a few of them start dying every time they marched, they'd think twice about marching so proudly.

I know, I know... I'm a bad person. But at least one of these stupid gun laws they've passed has to be as good for the goose as it is for the gander. I'm actually talking about turning their own laws against them.

3. Question:

Do all states have that "stand your ground" law? If your state has that law

and they come marching on your personal property with their guns over

their shoulders and swastikas-covered flags , guess you would be covered, no?

Guess I'm a bad person too, and I never even owned a gun before!

(And don't plan to.)
