I don't think ignoring it is a ood idea. I don't know is 71 meant to IGNORE IT-ignore it. But, to not give it any more exposure or attention than it deserves.
Kinda like this old film where they eventually ignore the guy:
The Pizzagate and Seth Rich conspiracy guy? LOL. He's a dumbass, not a White Nationalist. I understand how that could be confusing, though.
Strum goes away for a few weeks and comes back making more sense than ever.
I've had some interesting talks about this topic with my coworkers, two of them black, one of them in an interracial marriage. They're not militant or even angry, just disappointed that this stuff is actually happening in America in 2017. We've all agreed that we'd love to see an alt-right protest where nobody else showed up. No media, no counter-protesters, nothing. Just let them stand around a statue with their tiki torches for a few hours, chant some hateful crap, and then go home without anyone paying them any attention. That would require a remarkable amount of self-restraint, though, and I think that there are too many ass-hats among antifa to let that happen unfortunately.
Ok. So rather than being better/smarter when the tables are turned, the play is to give it right back in the reverse?
of course not...but why start it to begin with?
trump is backed into another corner and he's uncomfortable, again.
I have followed him on Twitter for almost 2 years now. He's not a nazi by anyone's definition.

I can't help it if anyone else wants to give them attention. I am not going to.
And if you aren't aware by now that people on both sides of these protests get beaten and killed (as well as innocent bystanders who just come to see what all the fuss is about), then that's your fault. If you go to one of these demonstrations and you get hurt or killed, you are just as culpable as you would be if you were walking around the south side of Chicago these days.
Pickin sides in this is like watching dook play state.
Truth is though that in my life i've pretty much gone by the code that if the nazis are fer it then i'm agin it. I dont think i can go wrong with that. Yea i despise the lw fringe and dismiss the occupy demented street and black lies matter movements as naive bigots bent on violence but neither have gassed several million ppl. As president, trump should know better that he cant give a remote semblance of defending white supremacist nazis. I do see his point and agree that both sides came to fight but dayum....nazis dude....'NAZIS for chrissake. He has handed his critics the best present they could want. I will be shocked if he makes it to the end of the year.

I've been away from this board for years and virtually nothing has changed....
....and just when u thought he couldnt screw the pooch any deeper.....he bemoans the statue removal. I mean does he not realize some things are better kept to yourself when you're the flopping president??!! Wtf does he think is gonna be the reaction? I swear to god its like hes taunting us.
