Officials in Columbus, Ohio, blasted a parade of masked people who marched down the streets with swastika flags Saturday afternoon.

Summary

Masked neo-Nazis marched through Columbus, Ohio’s Short North neighborhood on Saturday, displaying swastika flags and making racist and antisemitic statements.

Police are investigating, and no arrests have been reported.

Ohio Gov. Mike DeWine and Columbus officials condemned the display, emphasizing that hate and bigotry have no place in the state.

The incident follows a similar demonstration in Michigan last week, where masked protesters displayed Nazi flags outside a performance of The Diary of Anne Frank.

    Get ready to see a lot more of this.

    This is America now.

    The majority voted for this. We wanted this.

        We’re part of it. It’s our country and the majority decided to take America down this path.

        We are “we” because we are part of this society.

        I didn’t vote for it. I know, very clearly, what direction we’re headed in. Anyone that didn’t just float through their history classes with barely passing grades should know. But I still accept that I’m part of it. WE are a very stupid society.
