What you're actually doing is taking the evidence that unidentified individuals with a Nazi flag showed up at a demonstration involving thousands of people and ascribing that as representative of the entire movement. That's the cheap shot. There is no way for any protest movement to prevent some dudes from showing up with Nazi flags and getting their picture taken at it.
