White Nationalist from Keene in Charlottesville clashes

Keene, NH: http://www.sentinelsource.com/news/local/white-nationalist-from-keene-part-of-charlottesville-clashes/article_e8d47d0e-7e18-5048-b945-12db9991f676.html

Snip

A white nationalist from Keene was on the front lines of a rally in Charlottesville, Va., Saturday that captured the nation’s attention when it erupted into chaotic violence, leaving one dead and dozens injured.

Christopher Cantwell, 36, a racist, alt-right podcast host, said he was one of the guests invited to speak at the Unite the Right rally in Charlottesville.

The Southern Poverty Law Center mentioned Cantwell along with a handful of other high-profile alt-right activists and white nationalist extremists expected to attend the rally, in an article it published online last week.

The article shows his name on a flier advertising the event. The flier, which is also among photos on Cantwell’s Facebook page, lists nine others, leading with Richard Spencer, a prominent white nationalist leader and president of the National Policy Institute, a white nationalist think tank.

I was looking at the SPLC map on hate groups. There's aren't many in NH or VT, but I did see that The Daily Stormer Nazi group is based in the Burlington, VT area. Burlington is Bernie Sanders territory, a liberal bastion. These vile creatures - Nazis - are everywhere. If you think "it can't happen here," think again. It can. And it is.
