If I lived in the neighborhood, and were aware of this, damn straight Iā€™d be calling the cops about a prowling gang. Tie up their fucking time, as often as possible.

The cops would be supporting the ā€œProudā€ boys

This I know, but until they figure out who it is, PB time is wasted. Plus, I doubt theyā€™d be/hope they wouldnā€™t be so stupid as to give them an escort to the harraseeā€™s door. That would be an act extremely hard to deny in the public arena. Nobody would believe it was a goodwill tour.

Of course, like so much else, this was happening long before Trump came to power.

Trump is the symptom, not the disease.

Adams walked away from the crime scene with the knife in his pocket and blood on his hands, arms, and feet when he was arrested without incident.

This says a great deal about racism and policing in the US.

Well, that says a lot, and his idea of ā€œsafetyā€ says a lot too.

I just woke up.
Edited to clarify my point.

The whole damn thing is racist, but I was trying to show how itā€™s important to note that the cops are white supremacists, too.

ABC News obtained an internal memo showing that CBP ā€œwas aware, as early as February 2018, of at least one private Facebook group that included ā€˜inappropriate and offensive postsā€™ by its personnel.ā€

Theyā€™ve known for over a year, the shitheads.

I wanna take a moment and shout out a fallen comrade - Willem Van Spronsen.

Van Spronsen was active in the seattle anti-fascist scene for many years as a writer and activist.

At the ripe age of 69 (nice!) Van Spronsenā€™s last act was to take direct action against the infrastructure todayā€™s nazis - sorry, ICE - use. Van Spronsen attempted to burn down the nazi prisoner bus fleet in the parking lot.

Youā€™re never too old to join the revolution. We have a moral imperative to continue the fight - for the fallen, and for our siblings whomst these modern nazis persecute.

Ugh.

My suspected real reason: Spencer is telegenic. Remember those breathless profiles of neo-Nazis swooning over their excellent sartorial choices? It was in a magazine profile before the last election.

A friendā€™s post today.

This cut me to the core. Cannot ever happen againā€¦

"Each step was so small, so inconsequential, so well explained or, on occasion, ā€˜regretted,ā€™ that unless one understood what the whole thing was in principle, what all these ā€˜little measuresā€™ā€¦ must some day lead to, one no more saw it developing from day to day than a farmer in his field sees the corn growing - each act is worse than the last, but only a little worse. You wait for the next and the next. You wait for one great shocking occasion, thinking that others, when such a shock comes, will join you in resisting somehow.

You donā€™t want to act, or even talk, alone; you donā€™t want to ā€˜go out of your way to make trouble.ā€™ But the one great shocking occasion, when tens or hundreds or thousands will join with you, never comes. Thatā€™s the difficulty. The forms are all there, all untouched, all reassuring, the houses, the shops, the jobs, the mealtimes, the visits, the concerts, the cinema, the holidays. But the spirit, which you never noticed because you made the lifelong mistake of identifying it with the forms, is changed. Now you live in a world of hate and fear, and the people who hate and fear do not even know it themselves, when everyone is transformed, no one is transformed. You have accepted things you would not have accepted five years ago, a year ago, things your father could never have imagined."

From Milton Mayer, They Thought They Were Free, The Germans, 1933-45 (Chicago: University of Chicago Press, 1955)

Iā€™m not as blase as she is. There are a lot of us the Nazis want to exterminate, and this rhetoric implies that our continued survival is ā€œdomestic terrorism.ā€

ā€œI just peeled them off and tossed them in my car and finished loading my groceries,ā€ Wood said. ā€œAnd then when I went to get into the driverā€™s side of the car, I hear this guy yelling from across the parking lot ā€˜(expletive) traitor. You (expletive) traitorā€™

I got in my car and left and he immediately started following me. Thatā€™s when I stopped being annoyed and started being scared.ā€

When a reporter called the business on Tuesday for a comment on the incident, a man answered the companyā€™s phone and denied the allegations.
ā€œItā€™s not accurate. Thatā€™s how the left acts. Iā€™m not like them,ā€ the man said before hanging up.
