Found on reddit. I'm told the reason for their visit is to intimidate the Haitian immigrant community there.

Oh jeez I didn’t mean to plow through them with my car
And nothing of value was lost.
These people are so upsetting. I know this fantasy of punishing them feels good because of their vile beliefs, desires, and actions. And it would make life easier if we didn’t have to deal with them after they were eliminated.
But dehumanizing someone is what nazis do. I won’t join in. I’ll keep hope that we can deprogram these people, and they then are able to add value to our world.
Imagine being part of the Haitian community they're trying to terrorize with guns and hearing this.
"Yeah sure buddy, I'll deprogram the guys holding guns to threaten me."
Empathy is needed, but come on. Time and a place.
So, uh, like don’t let them walk there? We could stop them from doing what they’re doing without killing them. Letting them intimidate people isn’t okay, and there are non-violent ways to stop them.
Common (not homicidal automobile pilots) people were the key factor in anti-fascist action recently in the UK: https://time.com/7009238/anti-racist-far-right-riots-britain/
Hey, here's a big difference between the US and the UK:
The UK fascists DON'T HAVE GUNS.
That’s fine. Common citizens in the U.S. have guns, too.
If only armed anti-fascist action will be effective in the U.S., then do that. But it doesn’t have to be immediately violent.
And if it’s not effective—with them trying to use their weapons, then I guess y’all will probably get the murders you’re fantasizing about.
But I see no justification in this photo to strike first.
You should read up on nazis if you don't see them parading in the street as a threat.
You’re being disingenuous. You and I know they’re a threat.
No one replying to me has shown how vigilante murder of these specific people is the wisest response to this threat.
Less nazis is good for the environment. Why are you so vehemently defending nazis here? Why aren’t you preaching to the nazis marching around with rifles instead of us?
Again with putting words in my mouth.
I defend nothing about these people.
I’m criticizing the fantasies of the people in this thread.
I’ve dedicated my life to fostering tolerance to prevent anyone having nazi beliefs. But your suggestion to preach to the nazis is a good one. I think there are better ways to influence them, but this is a good start.
But maybe I’m just feeding trolls. Hard to tell now.
I’m the troll right. Fuck you dude, keep pondering the paradox while nazis roll up to your doorstep.
Okay.
You've answered this multiple time ITT when someone paints you into a corner. After three times, i now believe you aren't here in good faith, and consider your defense of Nazis repugnant.
I’m sorry.
