White nationalists are planning a rally in Lexington to oppose the planned removal of two Confederate statues from the lawn of the former Fayette County Courthouse, and they’re considering a lawsuit aimed at blocking the move, a leader in the movement said Tuesday.

Matthew Heimbach, chairman of the Traditionalist Worker Party, said his group and others allied under the umbrella of the Nationalist Front are discussing plans for the rally.

Heimbach said people in the Lexington area asked his group get involved. The group has members in Kentucky and plans to try to recruit more, he said.

And when the clown car of larpers, plants, and kooks show up with battle flags, Nazi banners, klan garb, and goodness knows what else.....don’t act shocked when you are made out to be fools.

Like why can’t these people find some serious folks to lead this effort?

You still don’t get it. If you defend American history, you are a Nazi.

We are just at the point in a civil war where it’s too early to shoot your neighbor in the face because you know he’s not on your side.

Except in West Goshen Township, Pennsylvania where the first shot was heard.

I’m not sure. My mom is a rabid anti Trumper and a democrat and is livid over the monuments removed in Baltimore last night “It’s history” she said.

I don’t think many people outside of NYC, DC, and LA think destruction of public property to appease one group of people is a good thing.

Exactly.

These things are supposedly beloved, but the population irresponsibly leave it to these freaks from the internet to be the face?

So now if you dare protest and exercise free speech... you’re labeled “white nationalist”.

Only if you’re protesting removing historical monuments.

No.

If one labels themselves a "white nationalist" the label is automatically changed to "white supremacist."

It's on "auto (political) correct" - you won't be able to change it. The option to turn "auto political correct" OFF isn't there.

If the leftists wish to deconstruct the Washington Monument, perhaps we should be prepared to let them as it would aptly remind the American voters of what they voted against in 2010, 2014, and 2016.

Where did these people come from?

It sure seems like someone activated all these fringe groups to help the media out with their failing ratings. Hollywood isn’t faring so well, so bit actors are taking jobs as protesters in fringe groups. It’s a theory.

I don’t know Klan members, at least to my knowledge. I don’t know any Nazis or neoNazis. I don’t know lunatics who attack folks at political rallies. I know Americans who go to work every day and who take care of their children as best they can. I know black, white, Vietnamese, Filipino, Mexican, Muslim, Jewish, etc. Americans who live in the same neighborhoods and who want to prosper. They don’t sit around and figure out what controversial thing they can do each day to gain attention. They don’t care about statues. Or Russians. They care about the economy. And their futures. They elected Donald Trump to care about the economy. Not to deal with orchestrated nonsense brought to us by the media and their minions.

Pay attention to what is really going on before you attack a well respected FR member.
This is a “Occupy” movement, disguised as White Nationalists.

In all my travels in the last 30 years, I have yet to meet a “White Nationalist or KKK member.
I HAVE met “Occupy”, “Black Panthers” and radicalized La Raza”

Great. You are not a neo-nazi. Join the club

Also good to know that if or when you stand up to protest cultural marxists, and Antifa comes along, bashes your head, while the cops stand by and media calls you a neo-nazi, you will have the peace of mind to ignore it all.
