My point is, it’s a difference between now and then.
Just like I said.
Your “point” makes a distinction having no difference. The thuggery is the same . . . it comes from the same species . . . it comes with the same motivation.
The NAZIs . . . the KKK . . . the Black Panthers . . . the Regime Apparatchiks (Democrat or Republican). All National Socialists, who mean to impose their will, by violence and intimadation, if necessary.
