Three small-town eighth-graders in Minnesota were suspended by their principal for not standing Thursday morning for the Pledge o Allegiance, violating a district policy that the principal now say may soon be rewarded to protect free speech rights.
The head of the Minnesota American Civil Liberties Union said that the school’s actions against the students are unconstitutional and his office has informed the district of that today in a strongly worded letter. “The school can’t do that; that’s illegal, “said Chuck Samuelson, the civil liberties group executive director. “Wow.”
Samuelson said that numerous U.S. Court rulings dating back to the 1940s say in “well-settled constitutional law” that students who refuse to participate in the pledge cannot be punished for refusing to participate.” STORY>>>
German Interior Minister Wolfgang Schaeuble shut down two far-right organizations on grounds that they deny the Holocaust took place.
The minister accused the groups of being “reservoirs of organized Holocaust deniers” who distribute anti-Semitic propaganda and praise the Nazis over the Internet.
Authorities raided 30 locations looking for evidence early on Wednesday, May 7, taking evidence with them, a statement from Schaeuble said.
The Keystone State Skinheads say they are making a strong and progressive movement against crime, drug abuse and greed. They also say they have been unfairly stereotyped, and made out to be villains in the mass media. Civil rights groups disagree. They say the organization is filled with racist and violent skinheads determined to spread hate.
Tonight, we’ll be talking with a high-ranking member of the of the Keystone State Skinheads about what they wish to accomplish as a group, and how they go about reaching their goals.

BERLIN (Reuters) - A ban in Germany on Adolf Hitler’s Mein Kampf should be lifted so the book can be published with editorial comments, a Jewish leader said on Friday.
“I’m basically in favour of the book being made publicly accessible with annotation,” Stephan Kramer, general secretary of Germany’s Central Council of Jews, told German radio.
Speaking on broadcaster Deutschlandfunk, Kramer said he believed such an edition should be made available online, where the book can already be read in most countries. Read more »
The parents of a 10-year-old boy who was handcuffed and placed in the back seat of a police cruiser for being too noisy intend to file a complaint against Ottawa police today, alleging that at least one officer went too far in the way he treated their son.
Thomasz and Santana Gurzynski say police drew their firearms before entering their Norberry Crescent apartment and scratched the back of their son, Lucasz, while forcing him to sit down for questioning without an adult present.
Mrs. Gurzynski, 35, believes it was an overreaction by police, who were responding to a neighbour’s complaint that the Grade 5 student and five friends were playing video games too loudly and play fighting with wooden sticks. Read more »
Brigitte Bardot is back on trial in France, facing charges of fanning discrimination and racial hatred against Muslims.
In a Paris court hearing Tuesday, prosecutors said they are seeking a two-month suspended prison sentence and a $23,900 fine against the former screen siren and animal rights campaigner.
Bardot, 73, was not present for the hearing. A verdict is expected June 3. Read more »
CIVIL liberties arguments do not apply when extremist organisations use the internet to spread hatred, B’nai B’rith Anti-Defamation Commission (ADC) chair John Searle said last week.
“Clearly a line has to be drawn between freedom of speech, voicing of differing opinions – and material that just incites racial hatred, religious intolerance and violence. When that line is crossed, that material ought not to be freely available to all who log onto the web.”Read more »
Jews can write anti-semitic articles as long as Muslims are being criticized. Jews can publish false articles in Canada without prosecution. Examine the double standard that has become freedom of speech in Canada.
“Everybody favours free speech in the slack moments when no axes are being ground,” 20th-century American journalist Heywood Broun once wrote. The real test of mettle is allowing free speech to thrive while axes aggressively grind. Just ask Canadian publisher Ezra Levant and author Mark Steyn.
In February 2006, Levant’s conservative magazine, the now-online-only Western Standard, reprinted the Danish Muhammad cartoons. Shortly thereafter, Syed Soharwardy, the national president of the Islamic Supreme Council of Canada, filed a Koranic-verse laden complaint against Mr. Levant with the Alberta Human Rights and Citizenship Commission, claiming discrimination.

The increasing presence of KSS activities in the surrounding communities of North Eastern Pennsylvania, combined with public support against the recent Times Leader newspaper article attacking our banner reading “Preserve our Heritage” as racist, has forced the paper to publicly retract their original statement.
The statement reads as follows:
“An article published on page 1A Monday about a banner that was placed on the Market Street Bridge needs clarification. Our story incorrectly said the message on the banner, which reads “Preserve Our Heritage,” was racist. The story should have said the Web site printed on the bottom of the banner directs people to the Keystone State Skinheads, a self-proclaimed “white nationalist” organization.”
*Unfortunately at this time we are unable to locate this detraction online but it can be found by going to page 2 of Tuesdays 4/8/08 edition of the Times Leader newspaper under the corrections/clarifications section “Building Trust”, on the bottom right hand side of the page.
Click here and scroll down to view the outpour of comments against the Times Leader’s article.
(*Editors Note: The barrage of media attention over the past week has been the result of non-stop KSS activity in N.E Pa, they are not different articles stemming from one single incidents but individual articles in response to numerous KSS actions.
The response of the KSS and our supporters to the recent media attention we’ve been receiving and to the local smear campaign by the local ADL, NAACP and elected officials has been to push back and work even harder. The KSS and our supporters have been hitting the streets non-stop in N.E. Pa with fliers, banners and stickers. The establishments’ response has been to label us cowards, claiming that we only come out under the cover of night and refuse to take responsibility for our actions, despite the numerous articles and photos on our website promoting our activities.
Perhaps it’s time we take our actions in N.E. Pa to a more personal level by focusing on direct public interaction; i.e distributing our literature in person on the streets and at local public gatherings, an activity continuously undertaken by members of the Philadelphia KSS with constant positive responses from our community.)

(*Editors note: I love how the idea of protecting/defending our heritage is nothing but “hate”. It seems that in these types of peoples minds that anything collectively regarding white people is always hateful. To openly acknowledge the fact that there is even a “white community” much less issues that it needs to address is always “disturbing” & “hateful”. And it’s particularly hypocritical of a group collectively working for the “Advancement of Colored People” to condemn the efforts of another ethnic group for simply expressing the same concerns and taking a similar non-violent course of action as their own.
I would definitely think that this article is going to raise a few eyebrows amongst the general population out there that cant seem to find anything wrong with protecting our heritage and our communities against the increasingly visible effects of multiculturalism. Read more »
In the face of growing community concern, the local leader of a statewide skinhead organization adamantly denied any affiliation with two girls charged with defacing a Jewish synagogue.
Steve Smith, Scranton/Wilkes-Barre regional director of the Keystone State Skinheads, said his organization has zero connection to Nora Rynkeiwicz, an 18-year-old from Factoryville charged with spray painting anti-Semitic graffiti on Congregation Ohav Zedek in Wilkes-Barre. A 17-year-old female accomplice also is expected to be charged. Read more »

Fliers circulate around Pittston, Port Griffith slamming diversity, promoting White Nationalism
Linda Kohut, executive committee member of the Wilkes-Barre Chapter of the National Association for the Advancement of Colored People, spotted fliers near her Pittston home that accuse multiculturalism of “destroying the unique characteristics of every individual group that it’s being forced upon, especially our own. It has deluded our culture and polluted the minds of our young people. Diversity is not our strength. It is our weakness, and it is leading to the corruption of everything our ancestors worked so hard and fought for.” Read more »
Stormfront, the white pride bulletin board has been under cyber attack for the past few days. Apparently free speech by racially-realistic whites is such a threat to the myth of egalitarianism and multiculturalism that the proponents of this hoax feel the need to illegally attack a bulletin board.
You must take advantage of our tools, sites such as Newsnet14, Stormfront, and Davidduke.com, while they are still up and running, before some bought politicians outlaw free speech in the United States. Politicians are working to outlaw speech which they deem ‘hateful’, not the criminals who attack these sites and hard-working Americans. Have you referred a white person to one of these sites today?

Hagerstown, Md. - A county judge was reprimanded for calling three black female lawyers “the Supremes” in court and advising the defendant to get “an experienced male attorney.” Washington County Circuit Judge W. Kennedy Boone has acknowledged that his comments suggested racial and sexual bias. In his written response to a complaint, Boone said he was trying to protect the three public defenders from representing a difficult defendant. More>>>
Dozens of words in the German language, from “degenerate” to “final solution” have become taboo because of their use by the Nazis. A new dictionary of Third Reich terms provides a guide through the linguistic minefield.
As if German weren’t hard enough. Three genders, endlessly long words, verbs coming at the end of impossibly rambling sentences.
But there is another, more subtle, linguistic trap which both Germans and non-Germans can easily fall into — and which is far worse a faux pas than a mere slip of the article. Mention that you have found the “endlösung” [final solution] to a problem you’ve been grappling with, or that you’ve made a “selektion” [selection] from a number of alternatives, and you will quickly find yourself the target of disapproving stares.

BRATTLEBORO — Brattleboro residents will vote at town meeting on whether President George Bush and Vice President Dick Cheney should be indicted and arrested for war crimes, perjury or obstruction of justice if they ever step foot in Vermont.
The Brattleboro Select Board voted 3-2 Friday to put the controversial item on the Town Meeting Day warning.
According to Town Clerk Annette Cappy, organizers of the Bush-Cheney issue gathered enough signatures, and it was up to the Select Board whether Brattleboro voters would consider the issue in March. Read more »
Editors note: This article is a perfect example of distorted media bias. For one, these fliers were posted on Saturday and not Sunday as the papers clam and had nothing to do with MLK day. There is nothing hateful or shocking about them, they simply address the real issues taking shape throughout our state. You can see the flier for yourself by clicking on the link at the bottom of the page.
Also, there are no photo’s of “neo-Nazi style poses by group members and displays of anti-Semitic signs” anywhere on our website. That was an exaggeration of the photos taken from the 10/27/07 Philadelphia anti-war demonstration. The man saluting in the George Bush mask is not a member of the KSS and is obviously making a statement regarding President Bush. The same rings true for the “melee with a rival skinhead group that led to a stabbing”. An incident involving independent White Nationalist Skinheads, none of them KSS, being attacked by anti-racist skinheads.
WILKES-BARRE — A flier promoting a white supremacist skinhead group was posted on dozens of utility poles throughout South Wilkes-Barre over the weekend, urging residents to “take our neighborhoods back” from drug dealers and gang members. Read more »

For about two months Frank Gumina has driven a 1974 Volkswagen Thing around with a Georgia tag that reads HA8 JWZ.
Gumina saw nothing in the sequence of letters and the numeral 8 except a sequence of letters and the numeral eight. Others did.
“I would be at a grocery store or the Wal-Mart and people would say ‘Hate Jews?’ or ‘Jew Hater?’ and I had no idea what they were talking about,” Gumina said Friday.
“You know how people just say things that don’t make any sense.”
Finally, a couple of weeks ago, a mechanic working on Gumina’s car sounded out the letters and the numeral on his tag.
“I got it then,” said Gumina. “Hate Jews. I realized I had a problem.” Read more »
The policy of no platform has been well and truly undermined following the successful appearance of BNP leader Nick Griffin [and historian David Irving] at the Oxford Union.
Invited by the Union’s debating society to discuss the issue of free speech Mr. Griffin was able to address a packed chamber of around two hundred students and academics.
The evening was partially delayed as a baying mob of 1000 agitators bussed in from all over England tried to prevent ticket-holders entering the historic building. No arrests were made and the police failed to contain a violent gang of around 30 thugs who managed to get inside the Union building. University security staff eventually cleared the protestors and Nick Griffin was able to deliver this speech. Read more »
11/25/07 Philadelphia, PA - A few members of the KSS took the time to attend this year’s Mayfair/Holmesburg Thanksgiving Parade, a local community event that gave us the perfect opportunity to put a real face to our fliers, which have been cropping up all across the North East.
Taking the conditions of NE Philadelphia into consideration and the lack of attention being brought to it, the overwhelming amount of positive responses we continue to receive from our actions should come as no surprise. But nonetheless they still do and it’s absolutely amazing. As we walked along side the parade route handing out our fliers, touching on the real issues effecting our area, most of our neighbors were already familiar with us. Quite a few had recognized us from the “American Skinheads” documentary recently aired on the National Geographic Channel and welcomed us with firm hand shakes and words of praise. Many more had seen our fliers posted up in the neighborhood and had already visited our website. Read more »
EXCERPT FROM ARTICLE: OREGON, U.S.A. — THE MAIN POINT of Mark Weber’s speech was that the U.S. stands in opposition to the rest of the world when it supports Israel, and it does so because Jews are a minority with a disproportionate power that comprises 11 percent of the nations elite, including 25 percent of all journalists and publishers. Weber attributed those statistics to political science professor and author Benjamin Ginsburg.
Not only is it dangerous to give such influence to such a small minority, Weber argued, but he said Jews are by nature distrustful of non-Jews and are part of a worldwide separatist movement.
Weber said that history had already been revised by others who ignore that “Jews wielded tremendous if not dominant power in the first years of the Soviet regime.”
Over the summer, along with the Maryland State Skinheads, the KSS took part in a documentary being filmed for the National Geographic channel. Focusing on pro-white skinheads here in America, we took them through the streets of Philadelphia, Baltimore and Washington D.C, showing them first hand what we deal with on a daily basis as well as some of our actions.

Philadelphia, PA
With a few hundred fliers, a few dozen cds on hand and some time to kill on a typical Friday night, members of the KSS and friends set out to a local hardcore show in the N.E section of Philadelphia. Dominated by white youths the show proved to be an excellent environment to talk with younger people about the problems taking place in our schools and throughout our communities. Without a single negative response we were approached throughout the night by numerous kids asking for more literature and information. Many of them whom had recently been attacked by blacks and various non-white gangs in their very own neighborhoods, which has become a common occurrence through out the North East. Read more »

UNITED KINGDOM — Stirring up hatred against homosexuals is to become a serious crime punishable with a seven-year jail sentence under a law announced last night.
The legislation — similar to laws already in force outlawing persecution on religious or racial grounds — will make criminals of those who express their views in ways that could lead to the bullying or harassment of gays.
The maximum sentence is longer than the average of around five years handed to rapists. STORY>>>
Just when you thought your civil liberties were safe, think again. Several police departments in various Florida counties are going high tech and arming their patrol cars with cameras that are hooked up to a new license plate recognition system. As a patrol car drives through traffic these handy devices scan the vehicles in and around the police officer’s vehicle. The recognition software then records the license plate numbers in a database, and then checks that information against a stolen vehicle registry as well as gives the officer the ability to see if the vehicle belongs to a fugitive or a sexual predator. This new surveillance system is possible due to the generosity of the automobile insurance industry in an effort to “protect you.”
Well, I’m sorry to say that I don’t believe the automobile insurance industry when they say they’re doing it to protect me. In fact I’m very concerned about Read more »
GERMANY — According to a voter survey in the eastern German state of Saxony, 9 percent of the population supports the neo-Nazi NPD party with just 8 percent in favor of the Social Democrats. The NPD says it’s because the far-right party isn’t racist.
The NPD celebrated the result in a press release, calling the numbers “really sensational.” The poll comes just three weeks after Saxony was in the news after a mob chased eight Indians through the town of Mügeln shouting “Foreigners Out!” before beating them up.
The NPD on Thursday said the most recent poll is a result of the fact “that we didn’t join the media-driven witch hunt against our countrymen as happened in Mügeln.” ARTICLE>>>
To our friends around the world - Just now I finished reading the Meinerzhagen Verdict on which Ernst’s 5-year sentence is based - all 369 pages of it! One of our attorneys, who sent me my copy, called it “garbage.” That’s putting it politely. It reads as though an eighth-grader tried his hand at pop psychoanalysis - all the while keeping a Hollywood “Nazi” in the corner of his eye. It’s psychobabble at its worst! It’s a disgraceful document having come out of a German courtroom, and I am considering publishing it by juxtaposing what Ernst actually said and wrote against the amateurish ruminations of a fool - unwilling or unable to look historical truth in the eye.Whatever else I may think of Dr. Meinerzhagen - after all, he is a judge! - he must have had an education! I can’t believe that he would write such tripe! It was probably put together by a clerk!Read more »

Decades ago, north suburban Skokie, a predominantly Jewish community that included a significant number of Holocaust survivors, banned a hateful bunch of neo-Nazi morons who wanted to march in the village.
The American Civil Liberties Union sued the village, and U.S. District Judge Bernard M. Decker, in a decision upheld by the U.S. Supreme Court, struck down the ban. “It is better,” Decker said, “to allow those who preach racial hatred to expend their venom in rhetoric rather than to be panicked into embarking on the dangerous course of permitting the government to decide what its citizens may say and hear. … The ability of American society to tolerate the advocacy of even hateful doctrines Read more »
