Did Charlottesvilel mean anything?

I have better one . Beware he who tolerates monsters and allows them to grows and prosper in your mist under the misguided notion of confusing them with ducks or sheep. And declaring because we treat the ducks and sheep one way we must do the same to the monsters . And as the monsters plot and scheme and make there contempt for all we stand for right in front of us . Some say we don't want to be  monsters and lie down on the ground and wait to be devoured because it's not something a monster do. Others say i'm not a monster but I refuse to lie down and wait for the monster to eat me and cuts the monster down . 

Just because one can stare into the abyss and it can gaze back does not make you and the abyss one and the same.

A monster is someone whose opinions you so strongly disagree with that you fear them or despise them.  Jews, witches, commies, Nazis, SJWs-- these are all monsters to someone.  Nobody here is supporting the idea of white supremacy, or underestimating the danger they pose to the society.  We are saying that when you take the law into your own hands, or into the hands of whatever mob you most identify with, YOU are the monster.

It's better to have a few noble victims in the name of peace than to become a society of millions of cowardly mob-driven monsters.

But in your case, I think it's more than that.  I think it's ironic that you come from a native background-- once thought savage and uncivilized and most cruelly treated at the hands of settlers; and that you, now smelling yourself to be in the moral majority, are so willing to throw away the humanity and rights of human beings which YOU consider backward and uncivilized.

There's also a pragmatic reason to allow people you dislike the right to speak freely.  It keeps them in the open.  It lets you see them coming a mile away.  Do we really need a bunch of pissed-off, disenfranchised Southerners building home-made bombs in their basements because blowing up government buildings or black churches is the only way for them to be heard?

BULLSHIT......

While most would prefer to obey the law, reacting to those seeking to destroy pluralism is not the same as wanting to end pluralism.

There is no equal in this.
