Godwin’s law says you lose.

Hi Xena.

Yes - I am familiar with Godwin's Law.

With respect - tough.

The spectacle of the Paul supports was reminiscent of the Sturmabteilung as any in recent memory.

That is part of what they did - surround, shout down, and physically intimidate political opposition.

When the brown shoe fits............

Yes, I've made the same comparision. This is the third incident, Rudy on the ferry in Michigan, Huckabee blocked from his campaign HQ in Iowa. The tactics are the same, though Sturmabteilung leadership met a rather untimely end. They're less violent and in general insignificant other than reflecting poorly on their candidate. Maybe the IWPA an 19th century anarchists are a better comparison.

So we’ve moved from cursing, throwing bottles and rocks, and breaking glass to surrounding, shouting down, and physically intimidating?

Quite a switch, but I guess y’all have to accuse someone of something.

Do you have any idea how large a guy Hannity is? He was no more intimidated by that crowd than you are by me. Hell, he was smiling when he entered the lobby after the incident.
