Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Columbus officials condemned the display, emphasizing that hate and bigotry have no place in the state.
Oh, but they do, as is evidenced by hateful bigots marching through the streets of your state capital.

Back in Normandy and Carentan Americans used to call that target practice, make America great again please.
I miss the days when it was acceptable to beat the shit out of Nazis. Can we bring that back?

You mean it doesn't make them look badass to be carrying intentionally edgelord versions of a swastika flag while wearing matching skull balaclavas in front of the shake shack?

Charge them with hate speech.
"Hate speech" isn't a criminal statute anywhere in America.
No, but there's the "fighting words" doctrine. Depending on the level of targeting of the hate speech, it may not he protected. Let's use Mike Pence as an example because it was a whole thing 4 years ago.
Saying "Hang Mike Pence" to the air is probably protected. Whereas going to Mike Pence and saying "I'm going to hang you" isn't.
The weird greyness is that telling someone to hang Mike Pence can also be a crime (e.g. conspiracy to commit murder or disturbing the peace), so the details and context matter.
Basically, if it's a threat with teeth, it may not be protected. Being offensive is legal. Inciting a riot or threatening or provoking someone into attacking first is not.

What a bunch of losers, waiting until the generation is dead that would beat them to a pulp in the streets with their Hurry Canes and walkers.
