Neo-Nazis march in Nashville, leave after being challenged

The group left in a U-Haul box truck that was driven out of the county, police said, indicating the demonstrators were outsiders.

A small group of neo-Nazis marched in downtown Nashville, Tennessee, on Saturday, drawing a few vocal opponents and ultimately leaving following a “challenge,” police said.

The demonstrators, all men, wore red, long-sleeve T-shirts and black pants, and some carried black Nazi flags, according to verified social media video from the scene.

“Neo-Nazi demonstrators … carried flags with swastikas, walked around the Capitol and parts of downtown Saturday afternoon,” Nashville police said in a statement.

No arrests were reported, and the group left in a U-Haul box truck that ultimately exited greater Nashville, police said, indicating the demonstrators may have been from out of town.

“Some persons on Broadway challenged the group, most of whom wore face coverings,” the department said. “The group headed to a U-Haul box truck, got in, and departed Davidson County.”

Wayne and Tanis from Letterkenny need to have a donnybrook with the hard right.

UHaul truck?

Should have pulled it over and cited everyone in it for seatbelt violations, at least get a list of their names.

FarFarAway ,

Theyve been riding around in uhauls for a few years now. They did arrest an uhaul full of patriot front members in Idaho a couple years back. But they all got charged with conspiracy to riot not lack of safety violations.

Guess the police have gotten so used to truck fulls of these idiots making appearances, they escort them out and just let em go…

FarFarAway ,

I almost had a thought about one article I saw about how patriot front was seen being helped into the trailer by the local police force. Of course the article went on to conclude that PF must be FBI in disguise… They couldnt possibly be the same that burn crosses.

wildcardology ,

Are we 100% sure it’s illegal to beat them on sight?

CooperRedArmyDog ,

who cares about legality, lets talk about morality, it is 100% moral to punch a nazi and beat the tar out of them, it is also your duty to violate immoral laws, therefor its your duty to beat the tar out of nazis. no self respecting jury will convict…

Where’s Indiana Jones when you need him? Didn’t he take out a truck full of Nazis?

Probably these morons.

They kind of look like patriot front rebranded.

Sinthesis ,

Temu nazis.

juxta ,

Yes, both groups have the same glow to them.

flicker ,

I live in middle Tennessee and I assure you the only reason they were there is because they didn’t friggin tell us they were. And I’m ridiculously disappointed I missed the opportunity to meet them.

juxta ,

They have to pile into a u-haul cause a u-haul blocks them from glowing allover the place.

The only good nazi is a dead nazi.

In the corpses of fascists, the most beautiful flowers grow.

Time to give them a pocket of sunflower seeds.

ThatFembyWho ,

I always assumed it would be like Lord of the Rings. When evil creatures die, they get burned, and nothing ever grows there again, the landscape permanently defiled.

mods_are_assholes ,

While I do like that metaphor and gave such texture to Tolkien’s world, I prefer a more eastern philosophy that corruption and rot is a part of the cycle of life, and the vilest filth over time becomes nutrients for a new generation through immersion in earth and transformation.

Lemmy is actually leftist unlike Reddit.

Telling Nazis they should follow Hitler’s lead and kill themselves is just a Tuesday here.

Not every Republican is a Nazi. But, every Nazi is Republican.

DigitalTraveler42 ,

Now the right wingers are trying to say that the two Democrats who were previously expelled from the state house are the ones who invited Polhaus and his Nazi clown car, which is absolute bullshit, but it just shows that right Wingers continue to refuse to take responsibility for their rhetoric and actions.

mods_are_assholes ,

That is a very russian tactic, we all know what playbook the cuntservatives are using these days.

Glad they were challenged.

And chased out of the county.

Jokes aside, they’re all over the place.

Maybe not being from Nashville doesn’t mean they aren’t from Tennessee, and given Tennessee birthed the KKK I don’t particularly have trouble believing some of these losers were from places like Pulaski, which to this day is the only town I’ve been to with three different streets named after Nathan Bedford Forrest.

Best case scenario, they’re a small group of fascists that travel a lot for their demonstrations, but pretending you can’t possibly find twenty of these guys, or people like these guys, in any state is a good way to let the cancer grow unchecked.

Boscrossos ,

I hate Illinois nazis.

mods_are_assholes ,

I hate the illinois nazi meme being trotted out in every fuckdamn thread.

Yes, we get it, you watched Blues Brothers, now find a meme that isn’t older than the internet.

Full disclosure so you don’t misunderstand: to hell with nazis, the only good fascist is a corpse.

Among the seriousness of the situation, I just want to say that I find hilarious that after these things happen, nazis online always go “well those aren’t real nazis because look how fit they are, they are all in good shape, and are marching! they must be feds because of all the walking and going outside! we real nazis could never!”

Bunch of cowardly, destitute morons- all of them

designatedhacker ,

Nobody thinks it’s weird they didn’t rent a bus? They rented a UHaul box truck and just piled in and sat on the floor? Folding chairs? Like this sounds like some low budget human trafficking cosplay.

Kbobabob ,

Which seems illegal. Why couldn’t they have been pulled over and at least cited for not wearing a seatbelt?

LostWon ,

Someone would have had to call it in that saw them getting out (or piling in), otherwise nobody knows what’s inside.

hibsen ,

Who would be available to cite them? All the cops are in the back of the U-Haul.

gnate ,

But what about all the Good Guys that show up in U-Hauls?

afraid_of_zombies ,

Hey the only thing that can stop bad guys with U-Hauls are good guys with U-Hauls

Nachorella ,

probably cheaper

Ensign_Crab ,

It seems like a really reckless way to travel. Those things don’t open from the inside. If their driver was somehow incapacitated or if someone were to put a lock on the back latch, the nazis in that uhaul would be in serious jeopardy.

But even without that consideration, the idea of getting into a cramped unventilated vehicle that wasn’t designed for humans and trusting a nazi to transport you anywhere seems ill-advised.

peopleproblems ,

Nazis are historically stupid. Modern Nazis aren’t any different

echodot ,

They are neo-Nazis, thinking skills are not one of their strong suits. If the Nazis actually came back they’d have them all executed (like they did last time) because these people are useless. They are all far too self-important to follow orders, and too thick for command.

DragonTypeWyvern ,

You just described the SS, my guy.

Brownshirt types might be useless on a battlefield but you don’t use them for that, you use them for paramilitary actions like intimidating citizens and rounding up isolated “enemies of the state.”

oatscoop , (edited )

– and once the revolution succeeds what you have is a group of independently minded and experienced “revolutionaries”. So naturally they need to be purged to protect those now in power.

echodot ,

The SS came later. Look it up.

HappycamperNZ ,

I mean, if you could think of any group that would put a pile of people in an insafe unventilated box Nazi is pretty high up there.

I say they should do it again.

So what you’re saying is, “keep taking uhauls Nazis”?

Son_of_dad ,

Is that even legal? Shouldn’t the cops ticket them all for unsafe travel and make them take a bus home?

Telodzrum ,

moody ,

Buses are expensive to rent. A u-haul is like $20 for the day.

Red_October ,

It’s because they want to be able to hide. You see a bus, not only do you know it’s full of people but you can often see through the windows, and they can see you. A box truck is a stealthier way to move those people, and it also prevents a bunch of wanna-be tacticool fascist shitfucks from seeing the crowd telling them to emulate their hero and kill themselves.

vynlwombat ,

It could just be way cheaper too

CalicoJack ,

That’s probably the real reason. You can get a Uhaul for $20-30 for the day, a bus would be much higher.

JustMy2c ,

Like a factor 30 higher…

ChickenLadyLovesLife ,

There aren’t really a lot of places around where you can rent a bus, either. And the driver would need a CDL (with passenger endorsement) if it has more than 15 seats. Any schmuck can rent a box truck.

Illuminostro ,

It’s easier to avoid detection until it’s too late if no one can see you.
