    Let me just point this out: He wasn’t arrested for hanging Nazi shit…

    He was arrested for not getting permission first.

    That’s incredible… State Statute 876.12-15 actually disallow wearing masks for “events” such as these, and none of these scumbags are getting arrested for it. They’re just getting arrested for not having a permit first.

      That becuase that law was aimed at antifa and rioters, people DeSantis doesn’t like, not his voter base.

        I thought that was the point I was making, but I guess some people don’t pick it up unless it’s mentioned directly.

      While i absolutely abhor these people and what they stand for, arresting people for displaying their abhorrent message is definitely not good either.

      The fact that they didn’t get the correct permits prior just shows how absolutely stupid they are.

    It’s absurd that nazi-ism isn’t outlawed in every ex-allied country in the world

      Me: Can we do something about the Nazis?

      Them: Now, now, we can’t make ideas illegal even if they’re morally detestable. That would be quite a slippery slope. After all, imagine what it would be like if government had that power and someone who disagreed with you was in charge.

      Me: Well that’s a relief, I can feel comfortable knowing that my rights are protected even as a {any ideology left of Reagan}.

      Them: cocks shotgun Don’t push it…

        I hate this idea that all views must be tolerated. Besides, Nazism has had its say, and we’ve all agreed it should be stamped out. Fuck anyone who waves a Nazi flag, I don’t wanna hear anything they have to say.

    48-year-old Jason Brown was arrested Tuesday for violating state law when he hung banners with Nazi messaging off an I-4 overpass.

    Brown’s own demonstration contained messaging endorsing DeSantis’ 2024 presidential bid.

    This neo-nazi trash is a perfect example of the typical DeSantis supporter.

    Earlier this year, Governor Ron DeSantis signed House Bill 269, which includes provisions that prohibit individuals from displaying or projecting images onto a building, structure, or property without permission.
