Just witnessed a group of Nazis harassing a group of LGTBQ members who were just on their way to enjoy Pride. For individuals to be stopped on their way to celebrate a day dedicated to them like this is just terrible and sickening pic.twitter.com/PG4wg6GwC0

Writes the Southern Poverty Law Center of the NSM, which operates out of Detroit: ‘An organization that specializes in theatrical and provocative protests, the National Socialist Movement (NSM) is one of the largest and most prominent neo-Nazi groups in the United States. The group is notable for its violent anti-Jewish rhetoric, its racist views and its policy allowing members of other racist groups to join NSM while remaining members of other groups. Until 2007, NSM members protested in full Nazi uniforms, now traded in for black “Battle Dress Uniforms.”’
