Note that they're garbed in Scarlet and Gray, nearby Ohio State's colors. They timed their little march the weekend of an away game. I'd love to see them march past campus and packed bars during a home game.
Meh..I lived in Columbus for 9yrs (wasn't my choice) so this tracks 💯 YES, the city portrays itself as "inclusive" but it's a very racist, meth/opiod driven city 🤷🏽♂️ There's a reason why the Feds investigated CPD and don't get ME started on Licking County😵💫 There's LOTS of Young and Old Klan in Cols
Now c'mon, that's not fair. Columbus has progressives galore who are doing a lot of good. I went to Ohio State, and it was solidly GOP back then. No longer. But it's the state capital, and nazi creeps like to march into town and make a show.
Yeah and No 🤷🏽♂️ Columbus was extremely active during BLM protests and bills itself as the "Largest" PRIDE celebration in the US..but let's not kid ourselves 😵💫 I had 3 fights from being called N, Newark, Short North and the Hilltop🤷🏽♂️ They HAD to hire a Black Police Chief (cont)..
2) because the amount of unarmed Black ppl getting killed by Cops reached "National" attention💯 I'm not saying Columbus is "majority" racist, but I wasn't fooled by all the White females wanting to bang...I listened to the locals while at Battelle and paid attention 🤷🏽♂️
3) I doubt very seriously if the Klan or Proud Gals ever marched in LA 😂😂😂 I'd actually welcome it😂😂😂 There isn't enough Cops here now, to prevent flash mob takeovers so I don't see a City KNOWN for its hundreds of Gangs...allowing a racist group marching thru the streets🤷🏽♂️ Short North Posse? Yeah
Sure. Apply that to almost ANY state, man! If the cities have enough population to outvote the MAGA crackers, then it's a blue state. This year, only Chicago and Illinois, and Minneapolis and Minnesota could pull that off in the Midwest. Every other state fell.
Well yeah, but I'm only offering up my perspective on Cols bcuz I lived there💯 I assumed it was "normal" at 1st because of all the Universities in close proximity, but learned in time, looks were deceiving 😵💫 even liberal ass OU 🤷🏽♂️
I'm truly NOT tryna shit on Columbus but Me and Honesty have a good relationship 💯 Pickerington,Muirfield,Dublin, Upper Arlington,Grandview ALL enclaves within Cols that will GUARANTEE Police harassment IF you aren't #White 🤷🏽♂️ I've literally SEEN this 😵💫
I remember asking my grandfather years ago if you ever talked to a Nazi during the war and he said you don’t talk to Nazis you just shoot them. Anyway, remembering that for no reason.
Where are the anti-nazis to be seen? Imagine how lucky the surviving soldiers of WW2 was knowing the horror that they never had to ensure again..it only takes 2-3 generation of peace for a nation to forget these things and thus the whole thing starts up again..
Probably "Blood Tribe," as it seems to be their costume of choice. Started in TX but now has chapters in Ohio. Nazi punks always gotta hide their faces.
Not to be disagreeable, but unfortunately they’ve felt empowered at varying levels for decades. There are just more roaches and rats in the apartment building because the new landlord is a noted, upfront slumlord who prioritizes profit over service of the tenants.
We protect our home and we fight, build until we have our chance to get that bastard up outta there again. There are more willing than what is believed. All fighting in different ways.
It also allows them to show up totally unexpected without any resistance
Don’t know about now but years back in Columbus the Klan would rally on the state house steps and the event was public knowledge leading to a lot of people counter protesting their hate rally
Bouncing around in the back gives them an excuse for rubbing their crotches against one another’s asses. Closet case psychos are always looking for excuses to touch the flesh of other men.
It's because it's a cheap way to move around 20-30 goons while also being unobserved while in transit. No one thinks twice about a u haul box truck. Additionally, they probably used fake credentials to rent it.
If you get the chance, 🔥 the truck with them in it.
Not banning those displays of hatred is a form of complicity from USA lawmakers towards nazis. As a European, I do not understand why such marches and such nazi groups are not outlawed.
Because the US Constitution very deliberately does not allow the government to restrict speech.
We have an obligation to make it as unpleasant for them as possible, because the Constitution does NOT protect them from the consequences of their speech by other citizens.
That is f*cking awful. We are seriously going to have to form up against these MFers. Well, wrong answer on their part there is no room for Nazi bullshit.
I’m setting up a discord server and trying to get as many neighbors on it as possible to be ready when these guys or someone like them shows up in San Francisco. We’ll run them out again.
Discord is free.
Their hate failed to hug them at night, increase their income, lower the price of flour or give them that tingly feeling. They are inadequate, low self esteem bigots.
Ha ha ha ha sure would be unfortunate if someone happened to toss pots full of boiling water out their windows while these chuds were shambling by below ha ha ha ha
If they are bold enough to March around with that flag then they should be bold enough to show their faces. Same with the klans men, take off the hoods so we can see the pieces of garbage we're fighting against.
Just think, if Matt Gaetz becomes Attorney General we could see this crap all over America. Makes me question just what I was fighting for, during six years of military life. It sure was not this kind of shit!!!
I believe the idea is to spread fear. Someone already mentioned why the KKK would cover their faces, so there would be fear that it could be any white person under there.
Let’s not downplay how much these people don’t have the courage of their convictions. If they lost their job, or their spouse left them over this, they’d cry crocodile tears..
Someone suggested sprinkling glitter over them as being the most annoying put-down they could think of.
You can never get glitter out of your hair & clothes, it lasts for ages. You’d be able to identify who they were afterwards for quite a while, rendering the masks a bit pointless.
There's a reason why flying swastikas is illegal in most of the EU. PS: prohibiting flying a Swastika is NOT a suppression of free speech, because the Swastika itself advocates the suppression of free speech. The US has still to learn that rule.
It’s sad the Nazi’s stole the meaning of a beautiful symbol. Reminds me of other recent theft of symbols to
represent negative instead of positive. https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Swastika
Here in Germany that's illegal - any display of the swastika is a criminal offence unless (in, say, the context of a historical display or performance) given government approval. Even then, it's forbidden to photograph or circulate images of it.
Because they aren’t getting beat down enough. If they got their asses beat every time they had one of their little hate parades they would probably stop.
This specific Neonazi group (Blood Tribe) is making blood their whole branding and shouting "There will be blood!" in a city where the Crips have a presence, so I'm curious how far they get with it
Ngl if they suddenly get attacked by the Crips and this ends in Nazis getting curbstomped by them, I’m flying all the way back and buying em all drinks.
Just a bunch of emboldened cowards without a speck of decency. Truly disgusting behavior condoned by some of our incoming leaders. Sad times for respectable people of our nation!
They hide their faces bc they know they're wrong. They're fearful hateful little people.
Do you know how long it takes to get glitter off? Weeks. And oh my goodness it comes in a SPRINGLOADED DISPENSER now. Purple, pink,gold. So many luscious divine colors. Just leaving this here.
One reason the Klan hid their faces was so that you'd know that any random white person might be a Klan terrorist who will have a mob attack and lynch you if you don't cower appropriately.
I grew up in Tn and experienced driving thru a couple of klan events in little down towns. Even they didn’t hide their faces. These people are just fearful little boys. None would dare walk around by themselves in their little costumes.
Do we need to make a response group chat or messaging system? Whatsapp? Not familiar with this type of thing but I'd be interested in participating. Peaceful resistance obviously.
Do you remember Stalin's Foreign Minister Vyacheslav Molotov? The etymology of the idiom~noun Molotov can be found here - https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Molotov_cocktail#Etymology - Good luck in Columbus, but that's all I got for you.

These nazi groups are proliferating like maggots.
They were met by a large group of Notre Dame Students. Massive brawl.
Students were not disciplined, but the Klan never had another meeting in South Bend.

Super weird.

It had something to do with 'you all' and U Haul.
(insert laugh track here)
If you get the chance, 🔥 the truck with them in it.
And at least a layer of anonymity
Fkn cunts.
I don’t believe that hate speech (or symbols) should be free speech.
We have an obligation to make it as unpleasant for them as possible, because the Constitution does NOT protect them from the consequences of their speech by other citizens.
This is why they hide their faces, so nobody will do this to them.
Put your seatbelt on as it's going to be a very bumpy ride for the next 20 to 40 years.

They handed Einstein and Fermi to the Allies on a silver platter.
Their codes were cracked by a gay man and women.

Nazis. They are Nazis. No one dresses up as Nazis for funsies.

Ashamed of themselves.
