An owner of a state-licensed cannabis testing business in Eugene said she has taken steps to sever ties to her company after local activists alleged she participates in neo-Nazi activities.

Bethany Sherman, listed in state records as managing member and CEO of OG Analytical, said Wednesday she is stepping down from the company she founded in 2013 and plans to sell the lab.

In a lengthy written response to Eugene Antifa's claims that she is associated with white power groups, the Eugene resident denied being a neo-Nazi and said her only "crime is a thought crime."

"I find it extremely disconcerting that it is admired and revered to have 'gay pride,' 'black pride,' 'Asian pride, or pride in any other cultural heritage, but if you have 'white pride' it automatically makes you a Nazi, and you are ostracized, attacked, and lynched by your community," she wrote in a statement issued to The Oregonian/OregonLive. "I admit, I am proud that I am white, and I'm not ashamed of my heritage. And I admit that I have been so conditioned to feel shame about this pride that I discreetly sought community where I could.

4. Sherman regularly tags her Twitter posts with #14Words...

Which is White Suprematist dog whistling for: “We must secure the existence of our people and a future for white children."

Her significant other, Matthew Lee Combs is a well know organizer of the Eugene white supremacist group, American Patriots Brigade and distributes literature and supports the national organization American Front.

Both have been seen wearing Swastika and Nordic heritage imagery which are well known symbols of white supremacists and Nazi collaborators.

If you don’t like being called out publicly for being a Nazi; it’s simple: DONT BE A FUCKING NAZI!

Both of them can go fuck themselves!
