While I am glad that they cancelled the protest, the student body had a maroon wall scheduled very similar to what they did when the Westboro Baptist Church visited campus to protest a Alumni and veteran's funeral. They coordinated a maroon wall of students to surround the protesters and silently blocked them from the view of the fallen veteran's family.

Aggies would have completed something similar and the majority of the campus would not have had to deal with or even look at the protesters.

Nothing about the skin heads is Nationalist, American, or acceptable. They like so many other hate groups cloud their beliefs in some convoluted imagined history. ignoring all that items that conflict. Nice to see A&M cancel a hate groups activities, I question how they managed to get the appointment to begin with. Free speech is cool hate speech is unacceptable no matter what your skin color or beliefs are.

There is a difference between Hate speech and Free speech, Free speech is you saying you don't like person X or item Y or you think Type Q Political group is good and P is bad.. Hate Speech is you saying Murder person X or destroy Item Y because you hate it, Its demanding Political group Q be murdered or be the only form of Power, hate speech is speech designed to induce fear and incite violence or advocate for it. The BLM do it Antifa do it and the KKK do it. They are all the same and all should be ignored / shut down.
While I'm all for rational coherent discussions where each side / group calmly state their points of view, THAT is not what these rallies are about.. they exist for one sole reason and that's to push Hate, Fear, and cause the race war that these types have been screaming about for years. With Free speech come responsibility's. Sadly that the crux of what's wrong in America No one wants to take responsibility for their actions or words. take the KKK member from Nevada that was fired for his part in the riots and hate Speech this past weekend. While he had the right to his Speech he failed to understand others have the right to there's. We as a Nation need to apply some common sense across the board on this subject.

SFC (Join to see) - Maybe it is wishful thinking on my part. I have seen less and less of their kind and an increase of the other extremist. I have made a point to not engage any of them and prefer the shunning method the Amish use when dealing with violent racists (on all sides) I think people have just failed at this point, across the board. Lack of responsibility and moral fiber are the issue in my opinion.
