This (and worse) is the goal of those pushing anti-lgbt and anti-semitic rhetoric

2022.

Is that enough for the police to investigate the guy? He sounds dangerous and unhinged.

Same. Idk why being able to spread hate and violence against people is legal in this country. Its the platform many Republicans run for office with.

The second video where he threatens the safety of LGBT people and their supporters is especially chilling.

Police don't investigate anything, especially right wing terrorists.

Which is insane considering hes got the makings of a mass shooter.

What a smug piece of trash. Of course he's recording himself, he was always out to make himself the victim and claim his beliefs were under attack when he's the one instigating the whole thing.

Just absolute bottom-of-the-barrel scum.

oh yea, I'm familiar with this dude.

if someone shot him, it'd be no loss.

yes it is enough, but Im not sure that they will

The easiest way to deal with dude is to get him riled up enough that he puts his hands on you in some way and then just beat him into unconsciousness.

Why would you think someone here wouldnt be capable of messing this guy up? Hes saying what a lot of us are thinking.

The store manager did a great job clowning the kid imo.

"Petco supports pedophilia"
"This is PetSmart you can go"

Lmao that's the best way to handle clowns like this, don't give them the attention they're craving. He's literally concern trolling on film. Like he's obviously desperate for attention.

You shut the fuck up

People like this not getting punched in the face is what enables this kind of behavior. These nazis should fear an ass beating for saying their bullshit.

I'm not impressed by violence, and most people do whatever they can to avoid a fight so it's just not believable. The kid was made to look like a fool already.

That's cool, I just like don't believe you I guess. Go track him down and fight him then. He makes it super easy with his videos.

Im not saying Id fight him. Truth is I wouldnt win in most fights lol. I fully support someone that can though.

Oo then I apologize for being snappy. Still I don't think you need to resort to violence. Clowning his stupidity seemed effective to me.

I remember this dude a few months ago. He's been harassing Target workers and threatening he would hunt people that support gay pride. I am surprised the police don't do anything to him.

I've never understood why christian cultists are so hateful towards the jewish community. Someone explain?

Most of us have realized that not fucking these people up is what has enabled them to become the shitbags that they are. There was a time when starting shit like this would get your jaw broken but liberals and enlightened centrist types managed to convince people that taking the high road was better. That high road is what has gotten us here. Time to try something different.

As a personal aside my own breaking point was during the middle part of COVID "lockdowns" when the morons started getting really aggressive and I had to put myself between a shithead and a teenage Target employee that he was screaming at. I was in that moment, and still am, fully prepared to either kick the shit out of those people, or get the shit kicked out of me, rather than allow people to be picked on or assaulted. Luckily in this particular case the dude backed down because most of them are absolute cowards whose balls shrink the instant you get in their face and they realize that there might be consequences to their behavior.

Well then shit I owe you an apology too. I'm sorry, I understand what it's like to snap.

Eh, I think you win with the high road tbh. People like the blonde mustache boy are kinda fringe lunatics, and they look that way because of reactions like the store manager. If you beat on him you make him sympathetic for the Fox News watchers.

What you don't seem to get here is that this guy is already sympathetic and a hero to the Fox News watchers. Optics have clearly ceased to matter when the people you are worried about making this guy sympathetic to consume nothing but propaganda. Fox News is already using Neo-Nazi language like "another day in Weimar" as it relates to LGBTQ events and shit like that. You think that this guy getting his ass whooped is going to make them even more openly Nazi? They are flying Swastikas and SS Flags outside the TPUSA convention in Tampa dude. The only thing that matters now is protecting the people who are going to be the targets of their violence and that requires meeting their violence with violence.

The one thing that has been shown to prevent genocidal violence throughout history is the threat of consequences, be they political, social, or physical.

That's why I think shame is most effective. It's how you discipline kids. I was a substitute teacher for awhile and the #1 way to make kids behave was by the threat of embarrassing them in front of the class. These people are already acting like kids anyway.

Idk I've been through violence before I think it's why I'm so resistant. I just think we should stop hyping these people up. I used to see the Q crew waving their "Stop the Steal" flags over the highway and I just ignored them like I would a cracked out homeless person. That's the kinda vibes I get from them.

Social consequences only work during the lead up to the violence or as a fear of what happens after the violence. If they think that the people who would shame them are going to be dead or to intimidated to shame then it doesn't work. So while I appreciate your stance here I am telling you that the violence is coming (and I'm telling you this because the fascists have openly said it is) and you will have a choice, either let the violence happen or attempt to help those on the receiving end of it. Quite often the only way to help those on the receiving end is to return that violence upon the people who started it.

These people have no shame and sometimes violence is the answer. They pull this shit because most people don't want to deal with the consequences of having to confront these guys. It's basically a lose/lose situation if you're at work and have to choose between defending yourself or taking verbal abuse and intimidation.

The only way behavior like this can be reduced is giving these people a reason to be afraid of the consequences. Many of them are scared of losing their money, some are scared of getting their ass beaten and some want to fight but don't wanna die. Sometimes you need to do what you gotta do to keep your peace.

He is a danger to society, he should be arrested for life.

Think I'll swing over to PetSmart later this week and grab my kitties something nice

He should go to prison, as should all the people enabling him. He certainly shouldn't be an elected official.

I'm just glad I'm not a manager. I'd never be manager material, I cave too easily and/or lose my cool with people displaying stupidity.

Oh wow I really want to punch that guy. So glad the manager didnt even give him time to explain and just kicked him out.
