You've decided that "fascism" is such a threat to what you view as the US way of life, that you feel preemptive violence against US citizens is justifiable and excusable. Then all you have to do is proclaim that a person is a "fascist" and you feel that attacking them with violence is A-Okay.
Please show where I say a
damn thing about
preemptive violence, or retract. No reading in, quote 'preemptive' or any synonymous meaning, specifically. Also, I do not declare others to be fascists. I have only argued where they declare
themselves to be so.

No matter how you church it up, you've taken a stance that *some* US citizens should be denied their rights as US citizens, and that violence should be enacted against them because of their beliefs.
Bull. I
never said anyone should be denied rights, and I
never said violence
should be enacted against someone for any reason. Simply untrue. You're making a strawman by changing a word here and there to distort the meaning.

YOU are a threat to the US way of life.
Tossing in a
rule 12 violation for the road?
