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.
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.
“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.
Considering this was happening before the election was declared as well, I’m willing to take the stance that Ohio is just a magnet for trash Nazis.
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
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.
No. No it won’t. They want to sensationalize this. Don’t buy into it.
Yeah nothing to report here, just some Nazis marching through US streets unmolested.
Can you elaborate on this?
I am not American (although I have lived there). I am just curious.
I am an American (and Jewish) and I have no fucking clue what they’re talking about. It has gotten worse and worse and worse.
They harassed a local business, got confronted by the patrons there, and pepper sprayed them. Then, they got arrested for it.
They’re just preparing for the inauguration.
Police are investigating…sure I bet a few officers were in the march. Yes because Trump going allow nazi the only right to free speech. When fhe protest begin Trump will send in the troops to put them down.
Hey they voted for hate and bigotry at the federal level
Back in Normandy and Carentan Americans used to call that target practice, make America great again please.
I mean why wouldn’t that? Americans told them to be Nazi and proud this election after all.
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.
I miss the days when it was acceptable to beat the shit out of Nazis. Can we bring that back?
Under what laws was it acceptable to beat people until shit comes out of them? It sounds like you just want an excuse to become violent whenever you feel justified.
You’re going to be really disappointed if anyone ever tells you it’s raining cats and dogs.
Always punch Nazis. It’s pretty simple.
Appeasement is a terrible idea when we’re talking about Nazis, it has never worked and will never work. I don’t get why people are so ignorant about history. I guess you’re not part of a minority that would get brutalized or murdered under their rule? Otherwise you probably wouldn’t attempt to play nice with literal Nazis.
It’s really irritating to watch this shit unfold as a German. You guys are basically begging fascists to take over at this point.
Jury nullification.
Easy.
Nazis aren’t people. They cashed out their people card the second they picked up that flag.
Nazis bad :)
I’m a pacifist, but punching Nazis has been self defence for 80+ years.
Didn’t fucking arrest them. They pepper sprayed people.
Also the short north is a traditional gayborhood.
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 …
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.
deploy the caltrops
Deploy the horses with diarrhea brigade
Deploy the cops who hit you with a bicycle
