If the mob were truly outraged over the neo-nazis, then they'd go after the nazis. They wouldn't necessarily go after convenient stores. And Kelly, btw, pockets of Toledo, like other parts of Ohio, are in poor economic shape. |

| kellychaos | Maybe one might have to know more about the socio-economic climate of Toledo itself? Although I'm loath to give too much credit to them, perhaps the paraders researched their target well. :shrug | |

So my question is does a mob get truly this outraged over a couple of geeks wearing swastikas and waving their dumb white power flags, or was this more like the whole straw and camel thing...? |

| Immortal Goat | I just don't understand why, when something like this happens, violence is the main form of "protest". Surely people must realize that this is exactly what the neo-nazis and KKK members want. Any bit of ammo that gets sent there way will definitely be used. I just don't get why they (the protesters) can't just line up in the streets in front of the paraders, not moving, but not harming them in any way. That way, if violence DOES break out, it is entirely the fault of the racists bigots. | |

| ItalianStereotype | it's the same thing that happened in Memphis a few years back. the KKK held a rally downtown and protesters turned over cars, assaulted police officers, and robbed and looted stores. there was no semblance of civility there, nor of peaceful protest. despite their intentions, the neo-Nazis did have a permit to hold their rally and the protesters only brought themselves down to their level. I suspect, however, that most of them had every intention of causing trouble and merely used the Nazi rally as an excuse. | |

Chicken or the egg? Are the gangs more at fault for taking the mere threat of a racist parade and escalating it into violence even though the parade never happened ... OR Are the rascist paraders more responsible for originating the planning the parade, planting the seed and inciting the violence. I'm far from trying to take away anyone's civil rights but, as in Spiderman, "With great power comes great responsibility.". Not to mention that the Constitution only guarantees the right of "peaceable assembly" and the paraders intentions hardly seemed peacable in this instance. The old civics class analogy about "screaming fire in a crowded movie theater" comes to mind. Yes, you have civill rights but inherent in those rights is the expectation that you'll use common sense. |
