A gang of skinheads, neo-nazis, and Klansman exercised their First Amendment rights at Yorktown Battlefield in Virginia. CNN reports that about 125 of them showed up, and were met by counterprotests twice as large. And there probably would have been more counterprotesters, but it took place on Saturday leaving many Jewish groups unable to participate.
Then there were the pacifists.
About a mile away, a second counter demonstration was held. Organizers called it a "tolerance rally." Those participants said shouting at the Neo-Nazis only helps fuel the fire of Neo-Nazi hatred.That's right, it's our fault that they hate us. Maybe we should ask ourselves why.
