Just a reminder that defending the free speech rights of Nazis, doesn't mean you're a Nazi or support the Nazi party.
"About 50 years ago, I led a team of dedicated lawyers from the ACLU of Illinois in representing a group of Chicago-area Nazis who sought to hold a demonstration in downtown Skokie, Illinois. The Nazis’ decision to go to Skokie provoked a storm of outrage, because Skokie was a village that was nearly half Jewish and home to hundreds of Holocaust survivors. Skokie officials and their allies tried every possible legal device to block the demonstration, and their efforts triggered a barrage of lawsuits that quickly became known as “the Skokie case.”
The village’s determination to block the Nazi demonstration was so intense that it had the effect of turning the Skokie case into a landmark example of the vitality of the First Amendment, as well as the ACLU’s fierce commitment to the principle that freedom of speech is a universal right no matter how offensive the message or the speaker."
