When masked brownshirts start appearing, it is time to meet these people with force. This is simply unacceptable.

When masked brownshirts start appearing, it is time to meet these people with force. This is simply unacceptable. When rightist thugs appeared in France during the interwar years (the Croix de Feu), other groups appeared to contend with them for control of "the street" (everyone from royalists to communists appeared to have street gangs, sometimes uniformed -- the socialists wore red, of course), but it didn't really do any good in the end. France was just morally deflated by the loss of so many good men in the first war -- the country was basically gutted, and the extremists were left to fight over "the street" with little effectual resistance from the depleted police ranks and the dispirited middle.
