Homegrown hate groups increase in number Watchdog group blames recession, election of first black president By Mara Schiavocampo Correspondent updated 7:21 p.m. ET, Wed., June 10, 2009
ST. LOUIS, Mo. - On a recent Saturday afternoon, hate was on the march in St. Louis. About 85 members of the National Socialist Movement (NSM), the nation’s largest neo-Nazi group, gathered in the shadow of the famed Gateway Arch for a march and rally celebrating its 35th anniversary.
Clad in all black, with their pants tucked into tightly laced combat boots, the group carried swastika flags and signs urging immigrants to leave the country. They chanted “Sieg Heil,” a popular rallying cry in World War II Germany, accompanied by a Nazi salute: one arm outstretched, fingers tightly joined, palms facing down.
Their critics say that groups like NSM are the faces of homegrown hate, something the NSM denies. They instead call themselves a “white civil rights organization.” Its ultimate goal is to whitewash America. If they had their way, U.S. citizenship would be limited to “those of pure white blood”; minorities would live in the country as guests. All Jewish people and gays would be forced to leave and immigration would be prohibited.
As shocking as those views are, groups like this are more popular than ever.
“Right across the board, extremist groups are thriving right now”, says Mark Potok, Director of the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Project.
The SPLC has been tracking hate groups for almost 30 years. In its spring 2009 Intelligence Report, they found that 926 hate groups are currently operating in the U.S., an all-time high. These groups include the Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis, racist skinheads and Black separatists.

the rush limbaws and them and all repbubs are mostly haters
no Sal......people are haters, jealous, couvetous, greedy, power mongers etc.......it doesn't matter if one is left handed or right handed....
the view spewed forth by media/propaganda/politicos is such that the sheeple can argue amongst themselves over crap that really doesn't even matter, never once looking up to see 'the hand' that moves the pawns......checkmate.......

The replacement of morality and conscience with law produces a deadly paradox.
STOP BEING GOOD DEMOCRATS---STOP BEING GOOD REPUBLICANS--START BEING GOOD AMERICANS
Of course, but you would rather attack the other conservatives rather than go after the policies the liberals and statists put into effect. Just read this forum and it is obvious.
"While Foreign Terrorists were plotting to murder and maim using homemade bombs in Boston, Democrap officials in Washington DC, Albany and here were busy watching ME and other law abiding American Citizens who are gun owners and taxpayers, in an effort to blame the nation's lack of security on US so that they could have a political scapegoat."
Not attack....pick apart....purified silver is worth alot.......burn away the chaff......one must know what kind of seed is in the mix.... before the planting......because once the tares grow up with the wheat they cannot be pulled out without uprooting the wheat.....
