[quote=@Ace of Hearts]I can't believe MDK equates the protective rights of nazis (victimizers) with the protective rights of marginalized groups that would/historically have suffered under their regime (victims) [/quote] Well in the first place, I disagree entirely with your broad application of the word "Nazi." I think instead of branding people with a star of David, you're branding them with a swastika; I think the idea you're talking about is fascism under the guise of social justice (NOT saying you're a fascist, I just think you're missing the forest for the trees on this, which is understandable given the hate machines in the media). I think you're probably overstating things to get a rise out of people as a calculated move, and hey, if that's your game, knock yourself out, I'm just saying it's worked out [i]great[/i] for the GOP so far. I think it's a misstep and I think you wouldn't like the way it makes you look, if you really stopped to think about it. And finally, yes, rights apply to EVERYBODY. They're immutable. They're universal. The government's [i]sole purpose[/i] is to safeguard them, period, everything else is derived from that. This notion of "equating" rights is alien to me -- rights [i]are[/i] equal, by definition.
