I don't believe that extends to denying them their basic human rights, though.
That depends on how much of the social contract a group is willing to break.
We benefit from knowing just how far nazis are willing to go to further their beliefs. And their efforts should be resisted in kind.
If people break the law, we restrict their freedom. Many seem to oppose that idea nowadays, or at least claim to. There's a certain irony in that. But yes, if an individual breaks the social contract in a manner deemed "against the law", then certain rights are removed from them.
