Advocating assault is a crime. He should have to resign from jail

Is this a crime?

Seems like it ought to be somehow.

How about civil penalties? Sue for damages?

I see he was too chicken to go and confront the guy himself. Wanted someone else to do his dirty work for him.

Borderline criminal activity by Hirsh and most likely a law suit.

He’s also sending someone to their death. If this guy Spencer is such a Nazi, I can’t imagine he’d allow someone to come to his property trying to assault him, and let them live.

Resigns? What’s the world coming to? I thought the left gave away medals to jerks who did things like this.

I’m putting the snark away for a moment to note that rank-and-file leftists don’t seem to understand that the elitism they espouse only empowers, benefits and protects the...elites.

Hillary Clinton, Eric Holder, Lisa Jackson, Loretta Lynch and yes, Barack Obama, can break the law with malice aforethought. They can ignore judicial orders, lie to investigators, and stonewall to their hearts’ content. Nothing they say or do will be prosecuted either because they hold power.

But a plonker at a web site or on Twitter who supports these martinets doesn’t realize that the martinets care not a whit about him and that his lawless behavior has no such protection despite any real or imagined ideological kinship.

While the hysteria over ‘hate crimes’ that are nothing more than juvenile graffiti applied by these same leftists builds, law enforcement should instead focus on those who are making actual bodily threats. A visit from the Secret Service makes headlines but there is either equality before the law or there isn’t. We all know full well that neighbor A threatening neighbor B because neighbor B is gay would bring the SWAT team. Someone dumb enough to make an unambiguous threat of violence should be prosecuted along with all such other cases. A mug shot, a night in the cells and a bleak employment outlook thanks to their shiny new police record are the minimum they should face.

I don’t remember ever hearing of Spencer until about a week ago - and I’m fairly politically aware. The last few days the MSM seems to be hyperventilating over this guy. Why? Yes, I know they think he’s a racist, a Nazi, but why are they going nuts over this guy?

According to the article, part of the year he lives right next door to Spencer. This would make Mr Hirsh's posts doubly stupid.

These idiots are going to end up helping to create a bona fide National Front. Confront that with a baseball bat.

Because he supports/supported Trump, and the narrative they are pushing is that everyone who supports Trump is a neo-Nazi.

The MSM uses this fallacy list as their talking points:

http://utminers.utep.edu/omwilliamson/ENGL1311/fallacies.htm

If you want to have fun take any MSM article and see how many fallacies you can find.

Many of them use five or more in each article or opinion piece!
