Christian White Supremist Hate Mongers Ruin Fair |
Group With White Supremacist Ties To Set Up Booth At State Fair
http://www.thejacksonchannel.com/news/3756365/detail.html
The Mississippi State Fair opens in two weeks, but it's already losing
money.
A group with ties to the white supremacist movement, called the
Nationalist Movement, is planning to set up an information booth at the
fair -- a plan that's driving away some businesses and customers.
The group's leader, Richard Barrett, calls it a "pro-majority" group.
The Anti-Defamation League calls it white supremacist.
Either way, the group's attempts to set up shop aren't sitting well with
the fair commission.
"I've been here for three years and gone to the fair every year," said
Ramie Mitchell. "This year, I think the tradition will end. I don't
think we'll be there this year."
Mitchell said she won't be bringing her two boys to the fair if
Barrett's booth is there.
Barrett said he wants to spread his group's message and honor the Rev.
Edgar Killen, who was acquitted in the 1964 murders of three civil
rights workers in Neshoba County.
Barrett said the booth is an extension of his First Amendment right to
free speech.
"You have more freedom today because of what Richard Barrett has won for
you in freedom of speech than you had yesterday," Barrett said. "Because
of this exhibit and this preacher, you'll have even more freedom tomorrow."
The Mississippi Organ Recovery Agency doesn't want to get caught in the
middle. It's pulling its $300 booth from the fair to avoid any association.
"The nature of what's going on over there could upset alot of people,"
said agency spokeswoman Dani Edmonson. "Aand if we're there, they may
not be very happy with us being in the same vicinity of someone like that."
Both the fair commission and Barrett say they've received verbal threats.
"They say, 'I'm gonna find out where you live and stab you and kill
you,'" Barret said.
But Barrett said the threats won't dissuade him.
As for Mitchell, she said she won't change her mind about staying away.
"I think it should be an embarrassment to the state," she said. "We ask
for outsiders to come here, and it's a slap in the face."

Right next to the Scientology booth, no doubt.

"President Nixon was almost impeached for a burglary at the
Democratic Headquarters; President Clinton was impeached for
having sex with an intern. But President George W. Bush lied
to the Congress and the nation, instigated an illegitimate
war that killed thousands of people, invaded a sovereign
nation, and violated international law. No president has ever
provided such indisputable grounds for impeachment."

And all three virtually indistinguishable.
