This does not sound good. Armed march protesting MLK day and Jena 6
Group plans march against 'Jena Six' on MLK Day

By Abbey Brown and Billy Gunn The (Alexandria, La.) Town Talk
JENA, La. — Some Nationalist Movement protesters planning to march through Jena on Martin Luther King Jr. Day will be armed, according to their spokesman.
The Mississippi-based Nationalist Movement, which describes itself as "pro-majority," organized the rally to be held Monday. The group plans to protest the celebration of the slain civil rights leader and the support that six black Jena teens charged with beating a white classmate have received.

"We will be armed," spokesman Richard Barrett, a Mississippi lawyer, said on Monday. "We have a court order that says (the town of Jena) cannot interfere with this event. There is no ban. If they want to bring it back to court, fine."

His remarks contradicted statements by the Nationalist Movement's local lawyer after a court ruling last Friday that paved the way for the "Jena Justice Day" rally and march.

On Wednesday, opponents of the Nationalist Movement's planned parade urged people to take a stand against racism by opposing Monday's march.

1. Well...hope they are smart enough to figure out that their
opposition will probably have guns too.

These people have flourished under the * Administration and they are ready for their last stand before the election.

Bullying Bastards.....

2. Die, all you racist fucks, die.
Really, these people are a joke. I swear to god, people of this sort can't hide their souls. American racists have to be the most physically ugly humans on the planet.

6. Typical assholes. They'll be ARMED, all right; to make up for the fact that they need
a good grip on a large flap of flesh to raise up that massive belly and a tweezer to find that cocktail weenie they call a penis!

Oooooh, BIG MEN!!! They'll be ARMED!!!!!

8. So they've cleaned up a bit....
...left their hoods and brown shirts at home and hired a PR firm or two to frame the issue a little more gently.

:dunce: :puke:

They're still the same ignorant phuckwads that walked the streets of Mississippi back in the 60's.

Phil Ochs was right. :grr:

13. what a great photo show this could be
imagine what one can do with a tripod and a suitably long lens. a portrait of every face in the parade lining gallery walls or a webpage somewhere. remember those pix from the skokie IL march?
