Let me paint a clearer picture than: when I wrote “organize”, I meant “gather
to demonstrate (peacefully) and express the ideals of their group, no matter
what they may be. I would restrict their right to assemble on the basis that
their virtues involve inappropriate behavior with children, and has been
deemed harmful to children. Likewise, regardless of the finer points of
Naziing or whatever it’s called, it is viewed by minority groups to be
harmful. This isn’t a case of hurt feelings - Naziing is directly responsible
for 6 to 11 million people being killed in Europe in the 1930’s and 1940’s.

And what is “inappropriate”? Who decides? You? Some would argue it is
inappropriate that women are permitted out in public unveiled. Sure, Nazism is a
horrible, evil thing, but should we restrict someone’s right to act like a jerk
if they want to? You’re equating the use of a swastika to killing millions, and
it’s an entirely different issue. A symbol is not murder.
