  • Is/Should being a Nazi in the U.S. be illegal?

    I'm kind of shocked the FBI had an investigation over a late casino owner in my city who was accused of being a nazi.

    Sense when is being a nazi illegal? As long as he isn't partaking in any illegal activities I don't understand what the deal is.

    Here's a link to the article in my local paper. The guy died recently and the FBI revealed their investigation.

    Such a waste of tax payer dollars. I just hate the FBI for so many reasons.

    No political party should be illegal but if a party commites an illegal act or incites others to commit an illegal act then they should be punished. More precisely the persons who commited the illegal act and/or the persons who incited it.

        Being a Nazi of COURSE should not be illegal. It's just as legitimate as being, for example, a communist - and, I'll remind you, communism has been responsible for more deaths than Nazism over the course of history, yet no one talks about banning communism.

        Banning Nazism is simply an emotional response - a few idiots joining a fringe lunatic party aren't gonna hurt anyone, and if they DO hurt someone, you arrest the specific people responsible.

          As disgusting as Nazi's are, the basis for the United States protects them, too.

            Typical. You got anything useful to add to this?

            But to the topic... no party should be illegal if that party has not been involved in terrorist activities. That is what we did in Spain. We allowed Batasuna (Basque nationalist party) but soon found they were involved in terrorist funding.. so they were shutdown and banned.
            For there is [another] kind of violence, slower but just as deadly, destructive as the shot or the bomb in the night. This is the violence of institutions -- indifference, inaction, and decay. This is the violence that afflicts the poor, that poisons relations between men because their skin has different colors. - Bobby Kennedy (Mindless Menance of Violence)

                  Perhaps, strictly speaking, no it shouldn't be illegal...but the thing is, relatively similar things (in concept, at least) under different names are supposedly restricted, so I'd find it somewhat ironic.

                  Still, I guess some people think that the freedom to advocate racial superiority and hatred must be protected too....

                      No, of course not!

                        Yes, Nazism should be banned.

                        Banning it doesn't make it go away..
                        No. What do you think this is? Somesort of repressive regime like Germany or France?

                          Of course not.
                          I came upon a barroom full of bad Salon pictures in which men with hats on the backs of their heads were wolfing food from a counter. It was the institution of the "free lunch" I had struck. You paid for a drink and got as much as you wanted to eat. For something less than a rupee a day a man can feed himself sumptuously in San Francisco, even though he be a bankrupt. Remember this if ever you are stranded in these parts. ~ Rudyard Kipling, 1891

                              Should it be illegal to be a Nazi? No.

                              Should it be illegal to collect your own cache of assault weapons? Most definately.
