Njord 04/17/21 7:45:08 PM #4 | I like to think so. I spend some time volunteering at an animal shelter, or rather, I used to, as their hours changed and they're not open during the weekend when I'm available. I pick up trash when I'm hiking and walking around in the evenings after work. I could do better, though. |

They were denied a protest permit by the state and are promoting hate speech illegally.They were denied the permit because organizers could not provide adequate insurance. That's all. I'm sure other demonstrations and protestors would do the same thing if they were denied the permit. |

I just don't like seeing people treat others with disrespect or intentionally trying to disrupt a protest, demonstration, rally, etc just because they don't agree with them. |

Right on Mr. Better-Than-Everyone, sounds like you could save yourself a lot of time if you stuck to your feelings.The feeling is mutual. ReturnOfFa posted... Njord loves Nazis. Nazi-Njord will be his new name.I don't like Nazis. I don't approve of what they did in the past, nor their ideals in the present. I'm just partial to people treating other people with respect, even if I don't agree with them. adjl posted... And which policies would those be? Laws exist to prohibit violence, certainly, but not to prohibit policies from being put in place that erode or erase the rights of certain groups. Heck, Trump got elected after suggesting that Muslims should be registered to prevent Islamic terror attacks (which, fortunately, did not translate into actual policy).Antisemitic laws. Laws against the collecting, culling, and wholesale-slaughter of people based on their ethnicity. I'm sure anyone born in the last couple decades knows what Nazis are like. You don't need to tell them anything. Zareth posted... This is such a Zeus thing to sayBut not.

Njord 04/17/21 1:21:03 PM #164 | adjl posted... Well, if you paid a little more attention, you might remember an obscure event called "World War 2" that happened largely because a bunch of Nazis were being Nazis and the rest of Europe decided to "be the bigger man" and "let them do their thing." And then a whole bunch of people got hurt and were sad and Europe realized they'd made a mistake, but by then, the Nazis had power and it was a whole lot harder to stop them.Oh, you were referring to World War 2. Of course. You see, the difference between the events that led to World War 2 and today, is that we have policies and law enforcement agencies set up to ensure that large groups with followings like the National Socialist German Workers' Party doesn't happen again. But that's not the responsibility of the public. That's the responsibility of the federal government and law enforcement agencies. DirtBasedSoap posted... hes gotta be trollingNot trolling. Like I've said before. Blightzkrieg posted... Fixd sodium-chloride posted... he actually responds in a similar way as Zeus does, wouldn't be surprised if it was himAgain, I'm not Zeus.

Do you think Nazis advocating for genocide could escalate to genocideOf course not, but they can't be held responsible for the actions of others. I could advocate for free ponies for everyone, but that doesn't mean we're all going to get a free pony. Now, if someone is inspired by them to do things, the responsibility and guilt lies with the person who committed these actions. Sarcasthma posted... Well I'd like to take this time to tell you that murder is illegal.Thank you for the heads-up. I'll be sure to be extra vigilant. OrangeDawn posted... so weird how people on gamefaqs always find a way to defend nazis lmaoAgain, I'm not defending them. adjl posted...

That's pretty defensive.I'm not ignoring her right to be there. I have the right to attend or counterprotest a BLM or SJW protest, but I'm not going to go there because I have other things to do and also just don't care. I take it you slept through every class you've ever had on 20th century European history?Nope, but it's been 10-15 years since I've taken a class on 20th Century European History so I couldn't begin to tell you what I learned as I've phased it out of my mind. Care to remind me what I'm missing or forgetting and how it relates to 20th Century European History? Sarcasthma posted... So then why even make that statement?Because escalation. I'm not saying it will escalate, but it can. You can avoid the whole issue by not going. Watch a movie about nazi killing if you hate them so much. |

I'm just pointing out that you guys are making them out to be a bigger issue than they are. Let them do their thing. Do your own thing, away from them. Leave them alone. Be the bigger person. Move on with your life. Sarcasthma posted...

Njord 04/17/21 10:56:51 AM #137 | adjl posted... Or she could counterprotest, a right bestowed to her by the Bill of Rights. Free speech goes both ways, bro. If it's an adequate defense for being a goddamn Nazi, then it's certainly an adequate defense for telling Nazis that they are poopyheads, given that that's substantially easier to defend than being a goddamn Nazi.Yes, you all have the right to counterprotest, but that doesn't give you the right to verbally or physically attack them. |

You don't have to be polite and try to reason with intolerance if they aren't willing to do that with you.Or you could, just, like I said, not, and move on with your life. |

Njord 04/17/21 10:30:14 AM #132 | Blightzkrieg posted... Calling people intolerant for hating nazis is like calling Luke a war criminal for blowing up the Death Star tbqhLolwhat? Luke Skywalker and Han Solo blew up the Death Star because it was a threat to the Rebel Alliance and anyone who apposed them as they'd blow them up. There were no laws saying you couldn't do this. Anyone who disagreed with the Galactic Empire just died so they ruled with an iron hand. If anything, Luke would've been a vigilante - taking the law into his own hands. These people are not doing anything to others, directly. You may be offended by them. You may think their approach, ideals, beliefs, or actions are dumb, wrong, insane, whatever, and you have every right to think this. But going to their protest, a right bestowed to them by the Bill of Rights and therein the United States Constitution, and creating drama just because you don't agree with them is just childish. They're not going to magically or suddenly change their mind because you don't agree with them. If anything, you're adding fuel to their fire. Leave them alone. Let them do their thing and move on with your life. |

B) Paying taxes. C) Serving on a jury when summoned. D) Registering with the Selective Service. Starting drama with Arizona Nazis isn't a required civic duty. It's even the opposite of an optional duty - practicing tolerance and acceptance of others with different ideas and beliefs. |

Njord 04/15/21 12:57:52 AM #5 | VioletMassacre posted... The majority of the brains inside eighteen year olds are still underdeveloped. Most stop developing around the age 25. Most teenagers act irrationally, impulsively, and immaturely. While, yes, a lot of adults still do act the same well into their middle ages and beyond, teenagers, especially eighteen year olds that just turn 18 are still pretty much kids. They just get the adult merit badge, but it doesn't mean anything unless they're in trouble with the law. |

Njord 04/15/21 12:51:35 AM #14 | Mead posted... Somebody volunteering at a hospital or shelter matters a hell of a lot more than somebody like Matt GaetzThe amount that someone "matters" to another person depends on the person. I don't know Matt Gaetz, but I'm sure he matters a lot to his family, loved ones, and constituents. Someone volunteering at a hospital or shelter, even though that's a noble thing to do, shouldn't automatically make them better than another. That's elitism. |

Njord 04/14/21 10:43:45 PM #2 | That's a weird question to ask - asking if an eighteen year old kid is hot? I guess? I'm not attracted to kids and teenagers, even if they're "an adult", are still in a sense kids to me. Especially if they just turned 18. She also looks much younger so that makes it even weirder. |

Njord 04/13/21 9:17:15 PM #2 | I dunno, that's a hard choice. Buckwheat pancakes are super tasty, especially if you mix in blueberries and have with maple syrup and almond butter. You also can't beat a stack of flapjacks with fruit, butter, and maple syrup. Belgium waffles are great, too. A couple of them with butter and maple syrup...mmm. French toast is also good, but I don't eat it as much as I used to. Although, fresh Brioche french toast with butter, maple syrup, and a little powered sugar? Pretty good, but a bit of a sugar overload. |
