The Proud Boys is a far-right organization identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group and classified by the FBI as having white nationalist ties. The group has a history of violence, including during recent rallies in Portland, Ore., and D.C.
Enrique Tarrio, the chairman of the organization, told DCist/WAMU he was responsible for destroying the banner. His comments echo claims he made in a post on the social media site Parler, which is popular among fringe groups and on an episode of War Boys, a podcast affiliated with the Proud Boys, that aired Thursday...
Read their home page to understand them. Maybe they could use some $$ to help protect and defend our rights.
I wish Enrique much success, health and happiness in all his endeavors.
If the Southern Poverty “Law” collection of clowns hates the group, we know it’s a good group.
SPLC can shove their “law” up their Black Lives Matter banners, set all on fire, and launch into the sun.
As bad a reputation as US law now has, these vermin will find ever lower levels to bring it.
Libs love burning the American flag, but do not try burning a Black Lives Matter flag. Shove it.
Eff them and the turd they rode in on.
Proud Boys don’t represent me. Fake organization designed to take up the space where real revolutionaries should be. Just keep sitting back and let the proud boys do it for you.
The Proud Boys is a far-right organization identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group.
So is practically every other conservative organization in the US.
“the social media site Parler, which is popular among fringe groups”
More lies. Parler is an alternate to the leftist site Twitter.
has "ties to white nationalists".
But burning a flag of the USA meanwhile...that is a Constitutionally protected right that the ooga boogas have...
Enrique Tarrio probably doesn’t even think of himself as a White Nationalist. Probably because he’s not even white.
Enrique Tarrio, the chairman of the organization,
Is Mr. Enrique Tarrio one a them there White Hispanics that are supposed to be so dangerous?
The media never miss an opportunity to undercut their own stupid narratives, IF you're willing to just read what these idiots have said.
“The Proud Boys is a far-right organization identified by the Southern Poverty Law Center as a hate group and classified by the FBI as having white nationalist ties.”
The Democratic Party is a far-left organization with white nationalist ties...and a KKK Grand Kleagle
The SPLC is a hate group and WAMU is close behind.
Kind of stupid, really, to take credit for things like this. That makes it easier to push the narrative that they are terrorists . . . because that is what they do after blowing something up - they take credit for it.
Are they trying to create the illusion that they are terrorists?
having white nationalist ties....”
The Proud Boys claim to have blacks in the membership, including in leadership positions. I have seen some in published photos of the organization.
Its genius.
What will they do, charge him with a hate crime? He’s black.
The ‘church’ involved, how can they have blatantly political signs posted? Shouldn’t that invalidate their tax exemption?
Go ahead and charge him with property damage, a few months in jail. I’m sure he’d be happy to oblige.
Yeah, and then take credit for it. Not good optics, as they say. He probably ought to leave that off his Mensa application.
well bless his little heart
I find the BLM banners offensive.
The equivalent of the hammer and sickle.

Who writes this garbage anyway?
1. Just what is a “far-right” organization?
2. What specifically have the Proud Boys done that has qualified them for that designation?
3. Why is the SPLC considered by so many people to be a Communist organization of rabid American haters?
4. Specifically what acts of violence have the Proud Boys been formally accused of and indicted for perpetrating?
5. Specifically what crime have they committed by having ties to white nationalists?
6. Is being a white nationalist a violation of the law, and if so, specifically what law?
They praise BLM and Antifa who have destroyed millions in property, killed citizens and police, and taken over sections of cities. They condemn Proud Boys when they defend themselves and react against BLM and Antifa. Who are hte real terrorists. The Antifa/BLM mob are the foot soldiers of the left protected by the mainstream media and big tech. The will condemn any conservative. Remember you may be attacked and killed in cities for simply wearing a red baseball cap. Not by the Proud Boys.
