White nationalists plan conference for white working families at state park in Eastern Kentucky R

Source: Kentucky.com

"A white nationalist group plans to instruct participants on proper marching, how to create propaganda and on being “a voice for our people” at a conference in April at Jenny Wiley State Park in Floyd County.

The Traditionalist Worker Party, which claims to “take a stand for white working families,” will gather in the “98.35 percent European” community on April 28 and 29, according to its Facebook post, which has been shared more than 500 times. The post said the event would be held in Pike County but announced that the seminars, speeches and a dinner will be at nearby Jenny Wiley State Resort Park, which is in Floyd County.

Floyd County Judge-Executive Ben Hale said the group has a Constitutional right to meet, but the vast majority of county residents would not condone its views.

“That’s just not the way our county thinks,” Hale said Wednesday. “I feel like we’ve got honest, God-fearing people.”

here is a little Bible thing

1 John 4:20 ESV

If anyone says, “I love God,” and hates his brother, he is a liar; for he who does not love his brother whom he has seen cannot love God whom he has not seen.

President Bannon (funny that my auto-correct keeps changing his name to Cannon) wants to blow things up. If you look into his eyes you'll see the monuments he believes will be put up in his honor.

He wants confrontation.

So instead, think about comedy. Don't go to confront, go to mock. Go to laugh at them. Go to embarrass them (if that's possible) but don't go to confront.

Send a thousand women in riding naked on horseback...that would pop their brains and take all of the glory away. (Can you imagine 45's reaction to that???!!!)

Do not represent the majority here. Even though you do still see the occasional Confederate flag.

Some like-minded friends and I have already reserved at least two campsites at the west end of the campsite section of Jenney Wiley State Park. Campsites are designed for 8 campers, and have electric and water. We are not going to get in anybody's face at the campground, just be very present in our tye-dies and political t-shirts: Playing guitars, beating on drums, and serving food to any and all comers. We will be trying to form a drum circle around their "Rally" in Pikeville on the 28th to drown them out......on loop B32-64, at the end on the circle.......
