This is a genuine topic of debate on the left. The consensus seems to be, “It’s OK, as long you call them a Nazi first.” It also helps if the punch is “funny.”
Opponents of the punch tended to say that violence had no place in political debate. Supporters tended to say the punch was funny, and more than a few compared Mr. Spencer’s attacker to famous Nazi punchers from pop culture, like Indiana Jones and Captain America.
Dollar-Menu magazine Newsweek thought seeing someone punched for their political beliefs was pretty good, but it became more “entertaining” when set to music. One of Obama’s speechwriters agreed.
Follow up question: Is it OK to shoot a leftist who assaults you because he defines your beliefs as “Nazi-ish.”
These people can’t tell the difference between comic books and real life … and they wonder why voters didn’t trust them to run the country.
It’s more than that. The left dehumanizes first. A human begin has rights. A non-human has no rights.
This is how they justify abortion.
This is how they justify assault of those who do not kowtow to their wishes.
This is how Nazi Germany, the Soviet Union, China, Pol Pot, all them them…justified the mass slaughter of people.
The Women’s March folks were harmless- litterbugs, but harmless. It’s the Antifa scum who need to be handled. They, in my book, are domestic terrorists who need to be treated as such.
No, it’s not okay. That could be lethal.
Better to go to them with a baseball bat to make sure they enjoy their wheelchair for the rest of their lives of street protests.

(I know. Although I try hard, I’m confident I’m just lame and cannot compete with the tasteless-ness of “genuine” debates on the left. Can I?)
It’s not okay to resort to violence when you oppose someone ideologically. However, it is more than okay to pull your handgun from its concealed holster and defend yourself when someone becomes violent with you.
In short, exercise your 2A rights when someone tries to violently suppress your 1A rights.
I think it works like this:
1) Lefty declares you a Nazi (*)
2) Nazis are bad
3) Lefties throw first punch (or worse)
* The definition of “Nazi” is up to the lefty… usually something along the lines of “not holding the correct and approved beliefs”.

The left keeps pushing, and pushing; one day they will find out just how much those on the right take their Second Amendment rights. And it won’t be “punching” any more. bang!
They might have been litterbugs but TRUMP MADE MORE FAT WOMEN WALK IN ONE DAY THAN MOOSESHELL DID IN 8 YEARS
How should gays react to TRUMP- why have lots of sex of course.

The KnotSea that was shot at the MILO event turned out to have a tattoo of a swastika in a red (/) effect being a fellow anti MILO. Red on Red attack.
I wish more of those with a voice would speak louder about being against violence and targeting the president’s child for criticism. It would be nice to be felt “heard.”
Sigh.
Journalists Covering Inauguration Protests Face ‘Felony Riot’ Charges
The problem being, Vince, those liberals who have been speaking out against such behavior are being shouted down and drowned out by the Progressives. Much like what is happening to Bill Maher when he talks about the evils of Islam.
#13 – But don’t forget, Juan, that al-Cray-da thinks that all Islamists are part of the “Religion of Peace” and always excuses their tendencies towards violent behavior.
Sort of like his idol, King Baracko the Wacko. (Allah praise his name)/SARC

Ask George Zimmerman.
So then, according to the mass media, it is not okay to shoot a Leftist even when your head is being bashed into the tarmac and you are in fear for your life.
No, it’s not okay to stand up for yourself after a private citizen stalks you with a gun.
I see that CrayCray pseudo patriot is still peddling lies about Trayvon Martin.
