Comment on Headline: I don’t know if swarm is the right word, I think that implies they entered the home? I guess a group of insects is a swarm whether it’s inside or out. They had their Nazi party in the street, and the governor’s home is protected at all times by state police.

Dozens of Neo-Nazis demonstrated outside the home of Massachusetts Gov. Maura Healey (D) on Saturday night, in an intimidating display of hate. Members of the group NSC-131 — which seeks to create a white-only ethnostate in New England — marched Saturday night through the Boston suburb of Arlington, uniformed in khakis, black jackets, face masks, and baseball caps.
The NSC-131 members moved under cover of darkness, co-opting the progressive activist chant, “Whose streets? Our streets!” The neo-Nazis then lined up on the sidewalk across the street from the Healey’s home, which was protected by state troopers. The group’s members lit red traffic flares, and held these aloft with stiff arm Hitler salutes. They unfurled a banner reading: “WE’RE NOT GOING ANYWHERE.”
The action by NSC-131 was an in-the-streets response to civil rights charges brought against the group by the state late last year. A 26-page complaint was lodged by Massachusetts Attorney General Andrea Joy Campbell (D) in December. Campbell denounced the group’s efforts to “target and terrorize people across Massachusetts and interfere with their rights,” and insisted the state of Massachusetts is dedicated to “holding this neo-Nazi group and its leaders accountable.”
That legal complaint hits NSC-131 for actions that “unlawfully target and disrupt LGBTQ+ events,” including drag queen story hours; “unlawfully target immigrants based on race and national origin,” including by trespassing at hotels where asylum seekers have been offered temporary housing; “unlawfully attack members of the public,” with frequent brawling at NSC-131 marches; and for numerous efforts to “disrupt public peace and safety.”

Maura Healy was an aggressive lawyer for a long time before she was governor. I’m sure the AG is no exception.
Interesting that they think they are the ones not going anywhere in the state where America drew its first breath of liberty. Fuck Nazis.
Well, it’s not legal to punch a Nazi just for being a Nazi. However, it is always moral to punch a Nazi for being a Nazi. Just know that if you choose to do the moral thing, the nazis with badges will likely arrest you for it.
What I’m saying is that if you’re going to be arrested anyways, you might as well make it worth it and get in more than just one punch.
If we’re discussing optimal punches to punishment ratio then you have to stop once they’re on the ground and definitely don’t kick them, because that would upgrade the charges to Assault with a Deadly Weapon.
If you really want to get away with punching Nazis then these Nazis are known to brawl at marches and events, so just instigate a bit without making physical contact and they’ll be the first to initiate touch, then you can turn them black and blue and red for you. Because self defence warrants a hell of a lot.
