Officials in Columbus, Ohio, blasted a parade of masked people who marched down the streets with swastika flags Saturday afternoon.

Summary

Masked neo-Nazis marched through Columbus, Ohio’s Short North neighborhood on Saturday, displaying swastika flags and making racist and antisemitic statements.

Police are investigating, and no arrests have been reported.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Columbus officials condemned the display, emphasizing that hate and bigotry have no place in the state.

The incident follows a similar demonstration in Michigan last week, where masked protesters displayed Nazi flags outside a performance of The Diary of Anne Frank.

    Who is begging fascist to take over? It sounds like you’re begging anarchy to take over. I seriously question people’s intent like this that act like there should be no laws in the United States and that their radical feelings are way more important. I don’t see any of these cosplay Nazis murdering Jewish people anywhere on the scale of Zionists. Do you? Tell me, why are you such a strong advocate of punching cosplay Nazis but not an advocate of punching those committing the murder and genocide today?

      Can… can we maybe just punch / kill both? The Isrealis are acting a LOT like Nazis these days. I’m cool with both.
