I've seen Illinois nazis up close. They were so pathetic, all I could do was laugh at them.
I've also seen American commies and NVA-lovers up close (Chicago, Days of Rage, 1970). They were NOT quaintly insane, but real bad guys. They wanted a war with the Chicago PD, and got one. I wound up within three feet of a minor skirmish.
Whenever I see film of the 1968 Democrat (few RATs in those days) convention, I still root for the cops.
Ruh-roh.

And that's sleet and freezing rain, not snow.
