LEWISTON, Maine (AP) A white supremacist group hopes resentment about the migration of hundreds of Somalis to this overwhelmingly white city will boost its presence in Maine.

The leader of the World Church of the Creator said he decided to come to Lewiston after hearing rumblings about the influx of Somalis into Lewiston in the last couple of months.

There is a liberal city or two in Massachussetts that have ben dumped on also.

Maine prided itself on being "centrist".

Amusing how the Somalis and others use the internet to "shop" for the biggest welfare suckers areas in the country.

I believe many moved up from South Florida when the "diversified" communities down there did not offer the bennies and lifestyle or small community they could invade and overpower over time.

I am waiting for a new "Exodus" of homeowners and business owners that eliminates the tax base there.

Property taxes and crime are skyrocketing in these cities and the lefties and "independent" centrists are going nuts.

I cannot fathom how the feds have been able to just target a small town or city and turn loose the locusts.

The problem in Lewiston is not outsider white supremacists or dienchanted local liberals; it is the invasion of Islam.

In larger cities like Milwaukee or Detroit they are less impacting and more invisable.

In Yankee Maine not so.

They put out the welcome mat.

Now they want their guests to leave.

Not pretty.

This is what you inevitably get when neither "legitimate" political party will stand against immigration.

"Fewer than 5 percent of the 9,000 hate crimes reported last year in the United States were committed by members of white supremacist and other racist groups, said Joe Roy of the Southern Poverty Law Center in Alabama, which tracks hate crimes and hate groups."

Statistics are wonderful things. What comprises the other 95%?

Hale said his group disavows any sort of violence.

When did this happen? The martyr of the WCOTC is Benjamin Smith, who went on a shooting spree over the 4th of July, 1999 in Illinois & Indiana, killing two and injuring nine.

Hopefully this group of fools will be met with a collective cold shoulder by the people of Maine.

I don't know..........I just wish the people of Lewiston would have protested instead of this hate group! The people of Lewiston have to pay the taxes on welfare for these immigrants. Oh well.
