I don't know the specifics of this encounter, so I won't comment on it. In general, it is brutality and a crime to beat up a person because of what someone said or a gesture someone made. Words and gestures are not violence. Hitting someone is violence.

As an aside, anything relating to the Third Reich or Nazi Party is legally banned in Germany, probably had something to do with it...

True, but when you visit another country, show some respect and act like you have some sense. Just because he's an American that doesn't give him the right to act like an idiot.

So, you are advocating violence against someone because they give a nazi salute? You think the regular Joe should take the position to be judge and executioner as they see fit?

Any other violent actions you think people should just take upon themselves to carry out?

Do you not believe in living in a civilized society?

Interesting given his daughter is Jewish, son-in-law is Jewish, many of his acquaintances are Jewish, his wife is Slavic, and about every action he takes is counter to the nazi ideology.

Statists are violent people.

A Nazi salute, sneeze or singing the theme song to Three's Company outside a bar do not violate the non-aggression principle.

Anyone who advocates violence for a non-aggression is an authoritarian scumbag.
