Summary
A group displaying swastika flags on an I-75 overpass in Evendale, Ohio, was confronted by local residents, leading to tensions and a heavy police presence.
Residents pushed past police, seized a flag, and forced the demonstrators to retreat into a U-Haul truck.
Officials, including Cincinnati’s mayor and Hamilton County’s sheriff, condemned the demonstration.
The Jewish Federation and NAACP also spoke out, questioning where the demonstrators came from. The NAACP suggested the current administration’s policies may have emboldened the group.
No arrests were made.
I do not believe in protecting literal neo-Nazis because of some idealistic notion of free speech. They want to exterminate most of the country.
If the police don’t combat them effectively, then communities should, by any means effective.
(yes, it isn’t even protected speech under 2nd Amendment, but that doesn’t even matter; fuck them, even if it was protected speech)
