Anti-Racists targeted in New Jersey and Pittsburgh!
On Wednesday, September 11, 2002, anti-racist
activists in New Jersey and Pittsburgh had their homes
visited by neo-nazis from the National Alliance (NA)
and the World Church of the Creator (WCOTC).
In the New Jersey incident the targeted anti-racists
were inside the house for 5 minutes. When they
stepped out again they found an NA sticker on the door
and literature in their mailbox.
In Pittsburgh, three neo-nazis tried to intimidate an
anti-racist at his home with knives and a metal
baseball bat. However, when they were confronted by
three unarmed anti-racists they limited themselves to
trying to intimidate the anti-racists verbally. The
neo-Nazis involved included Hardy Lloyd, the World
Church of the Creator Western PA Coordinator of 317
Mckee Place, Apt 8., Pittsburgh, PA, Matthew R. Detar
of 116 Paradise Rd, Bellafonte, PA, and Issac Timothy
Skipworth of 1821 Parkline Drive Apt 30, Pittsburgh,
PA.
The police intervened and after a quick check for
warrants (but not weapons) the Nazis were sent on
their way.
The anti-racists were targeted after their full names,
home addresses, weight, and height was published on
Nazi Internet bulletin boards and
Web pages.
Neo-nazis gathered that information after they were
among 28 anti-racists arrested by Baltimore police on
August 24. According to media reports, earlier that
morning there had been a confrontation between the
neo-Nazis meeting at the Baltimore Travel Plaza and a
group of unknown anti-racists. The defendants do not
have any knowledge of this event, other than what was
reported in the media. We understand from those
reports that there was a fight and several neo-Nazis
were injured, and the bus they were traveling on was
damaged. However, none of the 28 people arrested were
involved. The unknown anti-fascists involved in the
attack must have been at the Travel Plaza much
earlier, and left well before the 28 arrived. Those
people who were arrested were arriving at the Travel
Plaza to participate in a peaceful demonstration,
which had had been publicly advertised. The
demonstration there was called to show the neo-Nazis
using that location as a meeting point that they were
not welcome in
Baltimore. The police decided to round up anyone in
the parking lot, and pin any crimes - real or imagined
- that the NA complained of on these innocent
activists.

In both cities anti-racists mobilized to defend the
homes of the targeted anti-racists just in case the
Nazis returned. In other cities defendants and allies
were notified in case it was the beginning of a
coordinated campaign against anti-racists and were on
alert and ready to defend themselves.
Anti-racists in New Jersey and Pittsburgh have set up
a phone-tree for self-defense against racist attacks
and are staffing 24hr security shifts at both houses.
Targeted anti-racists in other cities are doing the
same.

I really don't give a fuck anymore. For years I've heard that word "racist" thrown about, and it doesn't mean anything anymore. Especially after last month, when limosine liberals gorged on steak and lobster in Africa.
Save your breath, little libbies. You're to blame for the apathy.
