LOVELY, NOW THE NATIONAL SOCIALIST MOVEMENT IS SAYING THEY'RE NOT RACIST!

If that caveat “I’m not a racist” from people who are hasn’t gotten old to you yet, break out the rocking chair because this will do it. Jason Hiecke (pictured), who is bringing the National Socialist Movement to New Jersey for a conference April 15-16, complete with a rally on the Statehouse steps in Trenton, NJ is trying to tell people that despite such demands on the NSM website that “all non-Whites currently residing in America be required to leave the nation forthwith and return to their land of origin: peacefully or by force”, we should not think of the NSM as being a racist organization, no no! We will let everyone mull over just how in the world he is going to explain this one. We are too busy laughing at the prospect. We are hoping like hell we don’t see some brother standing with them at the Statehouse calling himself an NSM member, but we got our start in Jersey and we honestly don’t put it past Nazis around here to pull that crap. To be honest, we are enjoying the fact that the NSM has to deal with the fact that everyone opposing them is gearing up to do so before they have even made an official announcement about the conference! We have promoted the thing more than they have!

TRENTON, N.J., Feb. 3 — A neo-Nazi group planning a New Jersey statehouse rally denied it’s racist, saying it wants to spotlight immigration and other political issues, the group said.

“We’re basically speaking about the corruption here in New Jersey politics, the immigration problem that faces our nation, and the revolving-door criminal system,” National Socialist Movement New Jersey representative Jason Hiecke told The Times of Trenton.

Other issues the April 16 rally will address are high state property taxes, child molesters and an alleged “double standard” in which only crimes by whites against minorities are described as “hate crimes,” he said.

“We’re all considered racists or white supremacists, but that’s not what most of our members are about,” the newspaper quoted him as saying.

He acknowledged the organization’s symbol is a swastika, used by Nazi Germany during World War II.

“The National Socialist Movement is distinctive in that they will wear Nazi-style uniforms,” state Anti-Defamation League regional Director Etzion Neuer told the newspaper.

“One will typically see them dressed in swastikas, even more than most white supremacists,” he said. “The visual that we might see of neo-Nazis clad in uniforms on the steps of the Capitol will revolt most New Jerseyans.”

He called the gathering “disturbing” and advised people to stay away from the rally.

NSM rallies often attract counter-protests that sometimes turn violent. A Nov. 13 rally and march in Phoenix turned into a rock-throwing melee in which two young men were arrested.

Seventy NSM members demonstrated against illegal immigration in front of Los Angeles City Hall April 17, 2010, drawing a counterprotest of hundreds of anti-Nazi demonstrators.

An Oct. 15, 2005, demonstration to protest alleged black gang activity in Toledo, Ohio, sparked a four-hour riot that prompted a 36-hour citywide curfew.
