IModern internet debate rule #1:
If they disagree with you → Nazi.
If they agree but not enthusiastically enough → secret Nazi.
If they agree too enthusiastically → definitely a Nazi trying to blend in.
Conclusion: Everyone’s a Nazi except me, the last sane person on earth.
Edit: so what, we cheering on school violence now? Guess it doesnt count because you dont like the person getting hurt. Heres how that turns out:

Are you seriously comparing school shootings to someone being punched in the face after holding up a sign that they likely knew was going to be inflammatory?
Edit: I recognize that it doesn't matter what the sign says, he doesn't deserve to be punched. It is the kind of statement that reeks of teenage edgelord humor, that I hope the young man grows out of. I think the comparison is in bad faith though.
