The people actually leading the Neo Nazi and white supremacist movements aren't clowns. They are several reprehensible things, but being innately boorish isn't among them; their ill manner is cultivated yet not cultured. They are what they are because they want to be. And they're certainly not funny or jesting.
I agree there are some that are working behind the scenes as cops, politicians, loan offices etc but the ones we see the most are the inbred azz clowns. The most dangerous members are hidden in plain sight because whites refuse to believe they exist. This denial is another example of the "white philosophy".
Members of the liberal/progressive/left are proclaiming that despicable people such as white nationalists should not be allowed to protest and should not be given a permit to protest. They forget that protest is a right.
The US Supreme Court settled the issue 40 years ago in 1977 by overturning an Illinois court order that blocked an extremist protest in Skokie, a Jewish suburb of Chicago. The Supreme Court ruled that protest is not limited by the fact that some people will be offended or by the chance that there will be violent reactions. Otherwise, whatever faction happens to be in charge can suppress dissent by everyone else.
For decades the liberal/progressive/left has invested heavily in driving people apart. Black studies, women’s studies, and Native American studies can easily cross into propaganda that generates hatred. As a man of peace said, “a house divided against itself cannot stand.”

Nazis and other white terrorists shouldnt be allowed to protest just like ISIL wouldnt be granted a permit to protest.
Limiting constitutional rights because the ideas held are ones we don't like is exactly the opposite of what the first amendment is about. Protecting speech that most of us disagree with, or even find repugnant, is important.
No one needs to listen to that crap, but supremacists of any stripe have a right to spout their nonsense.
If the white nationalists or supremacists or neo-Nazis make direct threats, or advocate violent overthrow of the government, etc. that is a different story, of course.
