3) It's not "fascist" for an elected government to invoke duly enacted emergency laws, reviewable by courts, to deal with disturbances. What is a lot more fascist-y, on the other hand, are extremist groups who blockade commerce in hopes of coercing the state to yield to demands — PolitiTweet.org

4) In a free society, citizens can expect many rights. But there's no "right" to obstruct traffic indefinitely. There's no right to "self-defense" against police enforcing traffic laws. Shooting cops as they enforce traffic laws is strongly frowned upon in any working democracy. — PolitiTweet.org
