The protesters stood for hours in the rain, and if there was no inclement weather, there might have been as many as 5,000 people at the protest. The mayor and chamber of commerce, and so-called civi rights laeders kept up a constant refrain on news reports, advertisements, and PSA’s telling people to stay out of the downtown area. Well, it did not work, and people were not intimidated by the cops or the Klan. Instead they were incensed!

What’s next is we want the racist parks closed down in Memphis, that the 35-foot statute containing the grave of N.B. Forrest, Klan leader, be removed and his body and that of his wife be returned to his family, and that park be named after Ida B. Wells, 19th century feminist, radical journalist, anti-racist, civil right leader, and anti-lynching advocate. Memphis is a majority Black city, and we should not have to tolerate this racist outrage anymore. We know that this will take struggle, and one thing we plan on doing is to begin an international campaign to wage a tourist and consumer boycott to make the city lose money which is the only thing they do understand.

Get a life, Steve.

I haven’t seen anyone do that here. Though I agree police work is a difficult job and one that deserves respect, not every police officer is worthy of respect nor do they all “serve and protect”; many commit abuses, many engage in crimes, and many are shielded by a system which allows the the powerful presumption of propriety to continue wrongful acts.

This is not a condemnation of the police; this is a cautionary view that the police need to be policed and punished when abuses are committed, just like everyone else. Unfortunately, that does not happen consistently. Quite often cronyism and wrist slapping takes the place of justice when complaints are filed. Desk duty for a week is not adquate punishment for wrongful search and seizure or excessive force, for example. They should be fired and be held personally liable.

There is also a common perception that more and more police are going to solve crime. Again, this is not the fault of the police, but it is the fault of society which tries to engage with the causes of crime by dealing with its effects. America has the highest documented incarcerated population anywhere in the world, and crime does not seem to be going away. Obviously our country needs something other than more police and prisons if we wish to truly address criminality. The status quo and old ideas aren’t working.

Forgive the off topic observations, but I am not so naive as to believe a uniform and badge alone makes someone a beneficial member of society. Blind devotion to the police simply leads to blind avoidance of the problems with our police.

This may not be a popular comment but then again, truth rarely is.

If we don’t have a strong show of law and enforcement for these monsters to disrupt and disband them we will find our communities infested with them and that isn’t a place most people would want to live in.

This is very true and that is the very reason why they are homegrown terrorists.

Here is one that should be included in your data base if you do not already have them. They are two fired former left wing, anti-government people who started a fake news blog site.

Calcoastnews.com by Karen Velie and Dan Blackburn who have printed on line so much hate, false blogs and attack police, government officials, Jewish, Christian and Muslin run programs for the poor and needy. They hire private investigators to locate those who do not agree with there blog site.

Maybe their “cells” couldn’t reach one another on their “cells” in a timely fashion….must be hard to text “flash rally” with all that fabric whisking around your arms and wrist…
bless their little hearts (?)…

I hate to admit this but I was briefly involved an NSM idiot in the past who pretended to be intelligent & not angry at Jews because his life sucks (long story I may tell sometime). Ew gross. They will tell you ANYTHING to get your support. Let me know when someone invents the “Life Rewind Button!” But you live and learn – and boy I did learn quite a few things about how they plan events and what the goals of these events are!

The best thing to do with WN rallies is to not provide coverage of their events. Have a counter-rally. Send someone with a camera to film it – ONE reporter to take pictures and then later write about how lame they are. NO opposition should show up. They consider it to be a success when they get media coverage and 100 antis yelling at screaming at them. The conflict and adrenaline rush is what the members want. (And when a leftist gets arrested or a person of color makes rude gestures and curses, it merely proves their point and is VERY counter productive. STOP doing that!! And what’s with the crotch grabbing?? Really folks, be productive!)

However, the real reason for the event is so that the leadership can get free press and then get a few more idiots to pay dues and buy useless crap from their ecommerce sites. WN is really a business where the “leaders” live off of the funds and the membership never sees a balance sheet or an expense report.

Also, many of these people are extremely brilliant but have equally low self esteem… which is why they blame Jews etc for everything. It sucks to be them… perhaps in addition to that one reporter at rallies there should be a psychologist to hand out a Prozac Rx to everyone! (or perhaps arsenic pills)
