Remember to Rage Against The Machine!

You have a big heart, and that's a good thing. I could not disagree with you more. 'No man left behind' is a noble code to live to but I think that following it to an absolute sense defeats it's purpose. 'No man left behind' to me means anybody on my team is never alone. The key is they have to be on my team and in this case everyone who isn't a nazi is on my team. Neo-nazis have made real threats against people who I'm on the same team with and I would be leaving them behind if I didn't oppose neo-nazis. If it comes to it, yeah Nazi lives don't matter.
I'm not saying hunt them down and kill them. I'm saying take the ones who have actually done terrible things, put them in prison. Tell them to either grow up and change, or stay behind bars until they're so insignificant that there's no need to hold them anymore or until they die naturally. Holding neo-nazis accountable shouldn't be controversial. If that requires taking their life I won't shed any tears, but that is absolutely a last resort.

Thanks for your insight. I should have made clearer in my original comment that me saying that all lives matter does not equate to 'Neo-nazi's should walk free'. If the life of you or a person you care about is in immediate danger, then obviously that threat needs to be dealt with accordingly. We actually agree on pretty much everything.
I think for me the difference for now is in the recognition that while we as a civilization seem to be heading towards big trouble, most of us privileged enough to sit and type comments on an online discussion forum are not in actual immediate physical danger. It is therefore useless to me to think about crossing the line of taking lives, either for me or by me.
All I wish for is that when it is all said and done, we can all focus on improving lives, instead of ruining them. There is a lot of work that needs to be done before that though...

Pretty sure that is your monarchy-supporting inbred country.
-
Ok, so you're a troll. Thank you for the clarification.
My statement still stands. You need to clean up your own mess, how you and your fellow citizens decide to do that is up to you. You do have the Declaration of Independence, the Second Amendment, and the ability.
-
LOL and you have the inbred queen, well king now.
-
It's sad that you resort to attacking an archaic political structure, instead of acknowledging that your current leader is broken, and is breaking your country.
Fix your country, American, instead of wasting your time on here, casting feeble insults. Act in the real world, not on here.
-
It's sad that you resort to attack people in a country while ignoring your own problems. Do you not think I know our system is broken? Do you expect me to fix it myself? Seriously, what you're doing here is exactly what I'm doing to you, and yet you're somehow offended when it is done back. Why don't you fix your inbred monarchy?
-
I know the problems in my country, and the monarchy is the least of them, given that they are merely a symbol.
I don't expect you to fix the problem yourself. I expect you to act. Remember the Declaration of Independence. Hold your representatives accountable by any means necessary.
-
So you're advocating for what, a violent uprising? If it is bothering you that much why don't you do it yourself?
-
No, I'm saying that it's up to you and your fellow countrymen. If you want to start a violent uprising, go ahead. But do something more than sit on your butt and argue on the computer. I know what I'm doing in the real world about my own country, and how it is being affected by your country.
-
Then declare war on the US if it bothers you so much instead of sitting on your butt & arguing on the computer.

I like ice cream!

They were open! It wasn't just me there either.
