And you've managed to argue that the REAL problem is the left, and the REAL victims are the violent neo-nazis who want to kick everyone out of this country who isn't white- even though they tried to kill dozens of people that day.

It's time to take a good, long look in the mirror and ask yourself how you managed to turn this into a right vs left thing and what you're implicitly arguing about the right.
Yes, cried wolf. I guess I'll have to do a little mansplaining. Do I really need to explain the fable of the boy who cried wolf?! Well here goes. See there was this boy. He kept telling all the townsfolk that a wolf has shown up to eat the sheep. The townsfolk rushed over to protect the sheep only to find there was no wolf there. So when finally a wolf did show up the townsfolk didn't believe him anymore and the sheep got ate. Do you see the analogy yet?

The left like to throw labels out without proof, correct (nazi, racist, sexist)? I am talking about at protests specifically. By your words, it is ok to punch a racist, correct? So what you end up with are people judging others as racist without knowing if its true and assaulting them then justifying that violence because they were "racists". This has been documented on quite a few occasions. This time there were actual racists involved, so at least they got their target right for once.

I think you should take a nice long look in the mirror and wonder "Do I apply my ideals equally?".
