Hopefully the absurdity inherent in a group of demonstrators needing to be outnumbered five to one by police officers in order to ensure both their safety and that of those looking on was not lost on the crowd which gathered to jeer this Neo-Nazi protest in Plzen. While no one ever likes to see such hateful speech on a public street, that's the tradeoff that comes with embracing a free market and liberal institutions--the government no longer reserves the right to tell its citizens what to believe. I'd like to think the Czech people feel better off now than 20 years ago even if they do have to deal with some occasional hate-mongering.
