Somebody here pointed out a good idea a few days ago (I apologize for not giving credit, I honestly don’t remember who said it or if it was a shout box or thread comment) let the militant far left and the nazi loving far right wipe each other out.

People like ANTIFA don’t speak for everybody that may lean a bit left just as far-right nazi lovers don’t speak for everyone on the right.

Might have been me. I mentioned in one post or another that when you get two masses of stupid rushing headlong at each other, the only sane thing to do is stand back and let them mutually annihilate one another. I figure that's why the cops in Charlottesville didn't wade into the fray there. You let them do the heavy lifting themselves, and just mop up what's left after the dust settles.

Diogenes was eating bread and lentils for supper. He was seen by the philosopher Aristippus, who lived comfortably by flattering the king.
Said Aristippus, ‘If you would learn to be subservient to the king you would not have to live on lentils.’ Said Diogenes, ‘Learn to live on lentils and you will not have to be subservient to the king.’
