Members of white supremacist and antisemitic hate groups marched outside Orlando, Florida, on Saturday screaming invectives, raising the Nazi salute, and yelling “Heil Hitler” and “white power.”

“We are everywhere!” neo-Nazis can be heard shouting in a video shared by former Florida House of Representatives member Anna V. Eskamani. Later in the footage, they yelled, “Heil Hitler” while performing a Nazi salute.

Here they go again with the silent majority bullshit.

They still can't wrap their heads around the fact that they are a tiny minority.

I wish they were silent.

Because they seem to have a disproportionately large influence on politics. In many cases the republicans can't win elections without pandering to them. They've got (or they think they've got) the American right-wing by the balls. Apparently that's enough to make a fringe whackjob pretty bold.

If they can delude themselves into thinking white people are superior in any respect then they can delude themselves to believe anything

I wonder why that is.. maybe minorities in florida don't get the best treatment? The world may never know.
