"The comments on this thread argue otherwise."

Yes. There were some Nazis in Charlottesville. Demanding proof of reports of Nazi menacing is no better than demanding proof of reports of communist menacing. Both extremes are trash only recently descended from foreign nations.

"Every synagogue should have a gun club."

There are hundreds of churches in the area around me, and none of them have firearms clubs. The majority are also quite feminist, libertine and supported by recipients of incomes directly and indirectly from the various levels of big government. It's one of the consequences of decades of the divorce/cohabitation paradigm.

We're seeing the results of a largely fatherless America.

“Or you could just call Mr. Zimmerman and ask him where he lost his cell phone. A cell phone that could have easily documented such a serious charge.”

An observant Jewish person would not have his cellphone on his person on Shabbos, let alone use it. I doubt even an apikoros Reform would take his cellphone to Synagogue on Shabbos.

I carry nothing except my pistol and my carry permit (both of which have been approved by the Rabbi as necessary given the times in which we live).

And note, I am not taking sides with ANTIFA. I am fully aware they are just as, if not more, antisemitic than Neo-Nazis. And ANTIFA is certainly more dangerous, as it is international, organized, and well-funded.

But to doubt that Nazis tried to intimidate Jews is willful blindness.

I view the ANTIFA vs. Nazi battle the same as I do Syria: my preferred solution is for all sides to wipe each other out.

It should also be noted that the Nazi thugs marching back and forth in front of the Synagogue were armed, openly. And I seriously doubt as many seem to suggest these were Antifa communist thugs dressed up as Nazis.

With any story like this the Nazis will have their defenders. Comes with the territory. There's an account of the day by Rabbi Zimmerman here. Nothing there strikes me as anything a reasonable person would disbelieve.

Security cameras everywhere, cell phone pics and video everywhere, but no pics of this?

Haven’t a clue, it’s possible the pictures of Nazis marching and chanting were here, it’s possible they weren’t. I’ve no doubt about the Rabbi’s account.

You believe that Nazis would do no such thing and that a rabbi would lie about it?

I think it's far more likely to be street theater by some Leftist playing dress-up.

The allegation is that they were intimidated by Nazis, not conservatives. There is no conflation.

It’ll be a cold day in hell before I thank anti-fa thugs for rescuing me from nazi thugs. They’re just two flavors of sh!t.
