Once again, this is the street thuggery that helped the Nazis take power in Germany.

At protest in Santa Monica today before the vote on mask-mandate, Jason Lefkowitz has the home addresses of each LA City Council member on his sign. He says they are going to the homes of whoever votes for it, and if it passes, it’s “civil war, get your guns.” From @chadloder

bringing out the worst in many people. Not that those who become "fucking psychopaths" don't tend to have more of the worst to bring out than those who don't, but almost all once were at one time better people.

Jason Lefkowitz, who has been making Nazi salutes and wearing a Star of David as he harasses customers and employees over coronavirus prevention measures, barked threats into a microphone during a protest, in a video clip posted by Resist Programming.

"When people come to your door, get the men and kick their ass," Lefkowitz bellowed. "They're not here to -- 'Can spread the wonderful word of [Dr. Anthony] Fauci?' F*ck you! No! No, get off my property. Get out of America, you're not welcome here."

"We need to fight back," Lefkowitz said. "Get your guns -- get them, learn how to use them."

He continued, saying that he was only a comedian and lacked the training to fight back against the government -- but he encouraged others to take action.

The solution is to make the price of fascist politics extremely high.

And a writer with thousands of Facebook followers, me being one of them. Well worth the read every day.

It's not much to my taste but it might appeal to the demographic he cultivates, so it could be a good career move for Jason!

that makes a very small crowd look big and important.

A dozen of those people are reporting on the dozen who attended.

If they go to the homes, they are not much more numerous than Christmas carolers.
