Back in Normandy and Carentan Americans used to call that target practice, make America great again please.
They appear to have been arrested, traveling in a U-haul.
Wasn't that a previous Nazi rally? Or did it happen again?
This picture is top of the Columbus subreddit from yesterday, so doesn't seem like it's from a previous occurrence.
Interesting. The article ends by saying there were no arrests.
So the story gets a happy ending... and I'm guessing so will his cellmate.
I won't believe this story has a happy ending until they're in prison. Because I have a feeling they're about to get a huge amount of help from the incoming administration.
That will depend on whether they face state or federal charges. I’m curious if they will be charged at all if the only thing they did was “protest”.
It will depend a lot more on whether or not the fascist dictatorship coming into office in January gives a shit about state charges being out of their legal jurisdiction.
I'm betting on not.
...probably just relocating them to the department so they can change back into their cop uniforms.
Some of those who work forces...
This will be normalized within the next 4 years.
When the masks come off, that’s when it’s really bad.
Oh, don’t worry. That was just the new Secretary of Defense and a few of his buddies out having a good time.
I wonder what the amount of Trump gear vs Nazi flags was. It's also very ironic how when Nazi's march in the streets without a permit the cops just block off the street with their cars and perform crowd control to "help protect the city" (the Nazis). And when people of color march without a permit because cops killed another person over something stupid they get met with riot gear, tear gas, and rubber bullets.
It's going to get so much worse before it gets better ...
"We will not tolerate hate in Ohio," Ohio Republican Gov. Mike DeWine said in a statement on the social media platform X on Saturday evening.
Talking from both sides of your ballot box, are we, Mike? Fucking moron. You support the hate candidate and you get a hate populace.
Don’t worry, he’ll get pushback on that statement and then declare Ohio the fifth reich. He always takes the right stance first then manages to flip flop to worse than he was asked to
I miss the days when it was acceptable to beat the shit out of Nazis. Can we bring that back?
Nazis feel emboldened to march in multiple cities this year:

Nazis have been marching in Columbus for two years. This was just the first time they attacked people
The next time they'll get the right police on shift first so they won't be arrested for attacking people. Then no one speaks up the third time because no one is there to protect us and we've arrived at totally fucked.
I don’t know about you but I armed myself. I will help me.
My sister and I are in Columbus for a concert and we were in a store right across the street from this happening. Shook us up pretty good. I have never seen something like that before.
What a bunch of losers, waiting until the generation is dead that would beat them to a pulp in the streets with their Hurry Canes and walkers.
Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Columbus officials condemned the display, emphasizing that hate and bigotry have no place in the state.
Oh, but they do, as is evidenced by hateful bigots marching through the streets of your state capital.
Is it legal to "citizens arrest" a Neo Nazi on sight?
They harassed a local business, got confronted by the patrons there, and pepper sprayed them. Then, they got arrested for it.
deploy the caltrops
Deploy the horses with diarrhea brigade
Deploy the cops who hit you with a bicycle
Didn’t fucking arrest them. They pepper sprayed people.
Also the short north is a traditional gayborhood.
This is what I love about these guys .... they know full well that this is wrong, this is unacceptable and that the majority of people don't support them .... which is why they wear a mask to hide themselves. They are brazen enough to step out in public to display what they want but they are cowardly enough to not want to be identified.
