Billy Roper: his dream of violent of genocide...

According to the Southern Poverty Law Center, Roper is the "uncensored voice of violent neo-Nazism." (Source : click here). Roper is with the National Alliance, a group spouting obvious Nazi sympathies. Shouts of 'Seig Heil and the wearing of swastikas are routine. The National Alliance was founded by William Pierce, the author of the infamous 'Turner Diaries.' The Turner Diaries were designed as a blueprint for violent overthrow of the US Government. Roper became deputy membership coordinator, attempting to draw sympathizers from various Tea Party groups but was fired from the National Alliance after Pierce's death for "tactical as well as personal differences." (Source : click here=2&item=WR_BR)

The most effective way to expose Roper's bigotry is to use his own words. In a 2005 interview on Blood & Honour Radio, Roper gave his sentiments regarding peaceful coexistence between races.

"Every non-white on the planet has to become extinct. We need to remove these minor-league amateur races out of the game, and refine the playoff brackets a bit, if you get my meaning. THE WHOLE WORLD IS OURS, AND THE ONLY PART OF THE EARTH THAT NON-WHITES SHOULD INHERIT IS HOWEVER MUCH IT REQUIRES TO COVER THEM."

Roper claims further that any accusations of racism anti-semtism, etc. are nothing but 'mere by-products' of a 'Jewish' controlled media. (Source : http://whiterevolution.com/?page_id=21) I didn't know that Rupert Murdoch or Sean Hannity were Jews. Roper's delusional thinking continues as he explains that the term 'racist' is merely an adjective for "one who is an advocate of or for one's own people," and not the 'pejorative' insult it has been fashioned into.

The National Socialism Movement within the Tea Party

The National Socialism Movement is a white supremacist group sharing sentiments similar to other neo-Nazi groups. They have a 25 point plan for retaking the nation which includes a virtual call for secession from the union. They also demand that all non-whites residing in the US be required to leave and return to their ...'land of origin,' ..."peacably or by force." (Source: http://www.nsm88.org/25points/25pointsengl.html) The fact that calls for secession constitute treason does not enter the discussion. In spite of the overt declaration easily found online at their website, no federal prosecution has occurred. In this case, Julian Assange is a traitor for publishing what the press should have covered, but neo-Nazis advocating secession are left in a 'safe' zone.

Mainstream GOP Cannot Divorce itself from Tea Party Incitement to Riot...

In light of recent hate crimes against ANYONE not deemed 'white enough' or 'Christian enough, the mainstream GOP must decide which side they represent. Simple statements of mild denunciation are not acceptable; rather they represent premeditated collaboration with insane bigots.

Various Tea Party candidates are now officeholders in the US Congress. They include the self-appointed titular head of Tea Party Inc., 'Capitol Hill' division - Senator Jim DeMint. Demint is also the top Senate recipient of Koch Industries PAC money. (Source : click here's)

Other Tea Party congresspersons include Rep. Michelle Bachman (who has made the permanent phase-out of Social Security her life's mission), and Rep. Mike Pence the House GOP Conference Chair. None of these officeholders have denounced any white supremacists or neo-Nazis in the ranks of various Tea Party groups.

Gabrielle Giffords' Opponent Jesse Kelly & His Neo-Nazi Affiliations...

Tea Party candidate Jesse Kelly, who ran against Gabrielle Giffords, also retains ties to these hate groups while showing no compassion towards his critically injured competitor. In fact, Kelly has accepted support from a group named ALIPAC, which according to McCain spokesman Brian Rogers, is allegedly "backed by white supremacists, neo-Nazis and anti-Semites."

Shortly after this quote was issued, McCain did a 'flip-flop' and attempted to justify Kelly's acceptance of ALIPAC's support by stating that "A lot of people support me that I don't agree with." "And just because they support me doesn't mean anything about my views." (Source : click here) To date, the ALIPAC group has been condemned by the Anti-Defamation League and subsequently 'outed' for their affiliation with the neo-Nazi group, aka the National Socialism Movement. (Source : click here)

The following DCCC press release reported Kelly's acceptance of ALIPAC's endorsement : "In his questionnaire seeking ALIPAC's endorsement this year, Kelly signed a pledge that he would use "the full power of my office, including impeachment if necessary" to force the President to bow to the group's radical demands." McCain's office has not issued another comment since on this issue of national importance.

In partial conclusion...
