I hope that banner has been removed. That is an embarrassment to Appalachian State.

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
Warning sarcasm. I do not support the idiots who put up the banner.
If the kids at ASU had to take a day off and go to therapy over seeing the word Trump, they must need a week and pain pills seeing the banner.

Good. Those groups exist everywhere. I just hate to see a banner like that at App. Glad the University acted swiftly! I really had no doubt they would.

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
Oh my. So disappointing. I wonder if an actual student did it or if some outsider hung it. I pray that it was not a student.

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
I hadn't heard of this group either. I Googled it and it appears the organization was just formed in 2016 by a former Marine who went to prison for armed robbery of a taxi cab (he thought the driver was Iraqi). Apparently, prison was the perfect place for him to find tune his hate skills. for the record, the founder is from California, so the South doesn't have a lock on these hate groups.

You all should check out their application to become a member. What a bunch of clowns!
We should get every poster to fill out a fake application giving them a piece of our mind. If we get enough people to participate and submit them all at the same time, maybe we can crash their server.
App is not the only college to have these gorilla advertising tactics used on their campus by this group.

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
IMO, The best course is to simply remove the banner and not mention it. These groups rely on free publicity to garner an audience. Any public announcement or hits on their website raises their profile and is exactly what they want. Don't give them the audience they desire.

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
I agree with this 100%. From what people on this thread have research about the group they have don't seem to have a tie to the area or school. I think a knee jerk reaction from the student body or school administration would make the situation worse.97APP wrote:IMO, The best course is to simply remove the banner and not mention it.

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
Apparently, the group has dispatched a "courier" on a tour to the east. One reference I saw mentions activity at Ohio State, among others. Sadly, an institution of any significant size seems ripe for some sort of dark underbelly.

If it happens to the Apps, it happens to me!

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
We have a winner, quit giving free publicity to all these groups and it all simmers down. Most groups just want to see their name in lights, whether it's a neo-nazi group, a BLM group or a lawyer97APP wrote:IMO, The best course is to simply remove the banner and not mention it.

Re: White Nationalists Hang Banner at ASU
Being a conservative.....I have as much animosity towards this group as I do the others......whether labeled left or right....they all represent hate and are fascist leaning in some way.
KICK ASS!!!
