You seem to be defending all laws of current legitimate governments. Is that right? So if ISIS won the war and became a legitimate government, would you then accept that people should be killed for having gay sex there? Would you ridicule those people, and even gay people in other countries who expressed understanding of their suffering?
When I live, saying "Heil Hitler" is not a crime so you have no business telling me I'm doing anything wrong or that I'm a bad person. I'm following my country's laws.
> the Romans were law-abiding people who did not try to overthrow a legitimate government.
No. They invaded many countries (or states or whatever you'd call the smaller entities that existed) and overthrew their governments. Unless you mean most of Europe and North Africa had no legitimate governments then?
I'm not the OP of the border guard story and you're making the least charitable assumption about my intentions. I think you're so angry about Nazis that you're seeing them everywhere and supportive of punishing anyone who even smells like one.

But if I was gay, I would not travel to ISISland and act completely surprised when the executioner comes for me for fucking my boyfriend in the market square. > When I live, saying "Heil Hitler" is not a crime so you have no business telling me I'm doing anything wrong or that I'm a bad person. I'm following my country's laws. From a merely moral standpoint, I can still consider you massively corrupt and an example of the worst mankind has created. > No. They invaded many countries (or states or whatever you'd call the smaller entities that existed) and overthrew their governments. That's warfare, a thing an US American, citizen of a country that is constantly at war with someone should be inheriently familiar with. If they had started genociding people (like the Nazis, or the Turks, or the Americans), that would be different. > I'm not the OP of the border guard story and you're making the least charitable assumption about my intentions You claim you had Nazi symbols on your car. In my eyes, that is worse than the Customs story - your friend could be explained by just being an edgy idiot. You, however, have thought about what you were doing before applying that decal. You knew the history behind those symbols, and you used them to "annoy" (or terrorize?) your neighbors. No non-fascist person would do something like that, and I would advise you to seek help.
