Five masked White supremacists waving Nazi flags demonstrated outside of a production of the play “The Diary of Anne Frank” this weekend.

It was the third Nazi demonstration in Livingston County, Michigan.

@kegill @barney@mas.to "Because it 'was peaceful and they were in the right of way, there were no grounds to request their identification." according to Livingston County Sheriff Mike Murphy. Sure, b/c Nazi flags are all about peace.

@mattg @kegill @barney Nazi flags: peaceful demonstration. Palestinian flags: antisemitism. This is what US politics has come to.

@mattg @barney

The symbol is covered by the first amendment just like burning a US flag is covered.

Best not to engage with the Nazi sympathizers as that’s their goal.

The Palestinian flag alone is not an antisemitic symbol. Hamas is.

@kegill @barney@mas.to waving Nazi flags is covered in Article III, Section 3 of the constitution, not the first amendment.
