The tactic, which Hitler and Goebbels perfected, is to “hint” at things you’d like to see happen (”punch back hard”) and then let your thugs take care of things on the streets. The thing that concerns me is that they pretty much own the streets. They’ve been running in them for 40 years. We law abiders aren’t at home in the wild.

This sounds like Arkansas politics. Second only to Chicago.

I’m sure the gnatzis didn’t invent it. The bolshies were pretty good at it in Rushee, the klan before them, the copperheads during the war, the abolitionists, the frainsh revolutionaries, the lutheran reformation, the Henry VII english reformation thugs, the rest of the Tudors...

The thing to remember is that it isn’t a “government”, it’s a faction of people. And NOBODY likes to have their own tactics turned back on them, hence the bamsters discomfiture yesterday. He was pissed.
