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.

    I have dual citizenship with the UK, which is where we plan to escape to, but New England is Plan B if I can’t find a job.

      That’s good to hear! The UK is probably a lot safer than staying stateside. But if you find job prospects better in New England we welcome you!

      The roads are kinda crappy, and we still have some trump supporters, but it’s definitely muted compared to other parts of the country.
