On A&E, 2am CST...Skinheads USA: Soldiers of the Race War
Edited on Fri Mar-09-07 04:01 AM by Behind the Aegis
It just came on. It doesn't look like it will repeat anytime soon. So, anyone up...check it out. Mods, if you could keep this up for just an hour. Thanks.

On edit: Thanks to the mods for keeping this open. I hope that some people were able to see this program. Feel free to keep this open, move it to another forum, or lock as needed. It was much appreciated!

1. Not playing here
I covered a Klan/Skinhead/Neo-Nazi rally in Gainesville, Georgia in the early 90's for a group I was working with... it was surreal and disgusting all at once.

The main theme was "Those Mexicans are stealing our jobs and marrying our women" - and that's a direct quote

JB Stoner made an appearance, orange hair and all.

Why do old racists die their hair orange?

2. it is interesting.
They just had an encounter with some lesbians. Of course, the whole show is "nigger" this, "nigger" that..."Jew" this, "Jew" that. One said that he hoped he would go to Hell so he could pitchfork the Jews as they entered and went to the bowels of Hell. Of course, they also blame everything on the Zionists, who control the government, banks, and media. :eyes:

This was filmed in Alabama and Georgia. One Alabama man called them on their shit and said they were one of the main reasons that people look down on Alabama and the reasons businesses wouldn't come there.

7. Good on that man from Alabama!
I took my soon to be husband with me who couldn't obey the "don't engage" rule. Of course he wasn't obligated to obey it. All he did was point and laugh at them - and they hate it when people laugh at them.

A few months after the main rally on the square, the klan decided to go into an African-American community, complete with robes, and to protest "the drug culture"....that turned really ugly. Of course that was their intentions to begin with...to spark trouble.

Eventually the local "grand wizard" came up on charges and was even fired from his job because of his activities. For creating a work place environment that was hostile to other employees

I was across the street at a local steakhouse observing it all.

3. Typical whackjob extremists
No logic or facts behind their assertions. Just hate and bullsh*t.

4. Sadly, they are becoming more prominent.
The increase in their activity and recruiting is on the rise. They present a real danger to all people.

5. I notice they use many of the same arguments as Fundamentalists
Traditional Family Values, blah blah blah. Our society/way of life is under attack, blah blah blah. Take back our country, blah blah blah.

Hatred and bigotry seem to have similar faces in every form.

6. So true!
Of course, I just learned something new...they shave their heads because the Zionist Owned Government (ZOG) shits on them and it is a sign of "purification." :eyes: My stomach hurts.

12. I thought the same.
The only thing they didn't explain was why they burn the cross. That is something I never understood.

13. When they do it on somebody else's property
it's to intimidate that person/group. I'm guessing that when they do it at their private meetings it's for personal gratification (perhaps imagining the intimidation they'd be inflicting if the cross were buring on somebody's property?).

14. It's not a cross!
It's a lower-case 't'!

A bright lower-case 't' for 'tolerence'!

17. This might help
http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Cross_burning

It's a little scanty, but I'd guess that it is supposed to intimidate those durn 'uppity negros' with the shining lights of Jesus' racist hatred of them!

8. Because the root for it is the same
Traditional is code for - white, male-dominated and Christian.
So anything and everyone outside that definition is attacking those values, their country - their way of life - just by existing.

16. Compared to when?
They might be on a slight upswing, but they were WAY more prominent in the early '80s than now. Back when The Order was running around robbing banks and armored cars and machine-gunning a Jewish radio talk-show host. SPLC really cut the guts out of the Klan and the Nationalist party with lawsuits that took their stuff, and most of their recruiting budget.

There's probably a little recent bounce, what with nativism on the rise because of war and increased immigration, plus the Internet multiplier effect. But jeez, compared to what the South was like 100 years ago, or even 50, it's a Disney World Klan.

18. They seemed to get most of their airtime on "Jerry Springer"
At least, in recent years.

Which would mean that, despite claiming to be aware of the evil Jewish liberal-media empire, let themselves be tools of:

a) a Jew,
b) a media outlet
c) a liberal

on multiple occasions!

Hmmm...

I guess that's why they wear robes. When your IQs are that low, the idea of 'front' and 'back' just gets way out of your league.

19. Of course
They may hate the Jewish Liberal media empire, but they're not above using it to spread their message. That's the difference between them and people who live by what they preach.

10. Learn something new everyday...
...they believe that Hitler is the leader of the White race and the American flag is the Jewish Flag. Oh, and Hitler is the father of all the skinheads. I am so damn ill right now!

15. Just woke up so I missed it, but the History Channel...
(or maybe Discovery) had been playing a piece on skinheads every so often. Might be the same one.

Skins are the pathetic bottom 1% looking for someone who will accept them, and take the group as a surrogate family. Thuggish and brutal, with just enough propaganda that they can absorb to make them feel superior to, well, anyone they can feel superior to. Aren't many people they can really feel superior to, so just make up stuff about Jews, Blacks, Mexicans, homosexuals, or anyone else to beat up on. A while back there was a group of skins in New Jersey calling themselves the Dotbusters mugging Indian immigrants. No group is safe from the manufactured hate.

I doubt it will happen here, but I can't help thinking about the SA-- the group of brownshirted German thugs HItler used to terrorize the place until he gained power. After he got into power, they were too undisciplined and ignorant to be useful, so they had to go.

Break up their leadership and they are lost, but it's bothered me for a long time that we just wait until they commit some actual crime and then jail them. Just what we need-- stick them in with a huge group of losers and give them a perfect organizing environment.

20. I used to work for a metal band called...
Edited on Fri Mar-09-07 06:32 AM by Tandalayo_Scheisskop
"M.O.D.(Method of Destruction)". Ahhh...the dulcet tones and sensitive song stylings those lads could generate.

Anyway, it was a well known fact that the lead singer, Billy Milano(Real name: Billy Steiner, scion of a liquor distribution fortune) absolutely hated, despised and loathed, to the point of near-psychiatric decompensatory events, racist skinheads. Usually they stayed away. Billy was short, but he was nuts and he was built like a well-armored weapon system, only more dangerous. And they knew it. Skinheads had tried, at one time, to claim Billy as one of their own. Billy saw that as Blood Libel and it was war. At least as far as Billy was concerned.

Then we played Providence RI.

We were playing there in a club that was, at one time, a part of an old Industrial Revolution mill complex. Just one large brick room, with a P.o.S. stage at one end. About halfway back in the room were a bunch of racist skinheads, taunting Billy. Without any running start, Billy just threw the mic down and did a standing jump, halfway down the room, into the middle of a lot of skinheads.

It was like someone set of a high-explosive, shaped-charge meat bomb in the middle of them. Skinheads flying and hitting the floor in every direction, hitting the floor.

Final score: Billy, about 10. Skinheads, 0.

Billy got the Standing O and went onto finish the show, just as pleased as punch as he could be with himself. Me, as the tour manager, had a quiet nervous breakdown, went out to the bay of the tour bus, got a bottle of vodka and put something of a serious dent in it. Billy could do that to a tour manager, and did so with amazing regularity. He liked tour managers just a smidge more than skinheads.
