No, they don't. They're morons. Which is why you let them expose their idiocy for all to see and laugh at. Beating them up only makes people who hate Nazis but don't want people beaten up for saying unpopular things - which is actually a pretty hefty proportion of citizens - sympathize with them as victims. And it only amps up the public will for government to clamp down and sort things out with the power of the state. Are you really sure you want that to happen - are you confident that a government which imposes severe restrictions on speech and public protest will be on your side?
