White Supremacist Groups In North Carolina

The recent arrests of several people reported to be skinheads has us asking questions: just how widespread is this issue?

It was a disturbing scene on Friday, when Greenville Police showed us Nazi flags, handguns, knives and Ku Klux Klan literature they say they confiscated from members of a white supremacist group, members facing several charges including conspiracy to commit murder.

Then, on Tuesday, a new report came out showing groups of KKK members, skinheads and neo-Nazis are growing more active in our country. In fact, the report show old Klan chapters have been revived and new ones started through the south, while in other parts of the country, many have a new mission: stirring up anti-immigrant sentiment.

The Southern Poverty Law Center says Klan chapters are up by 63 percent between 2000 and 2005; estimates show as many as 150 Klan chapters in our country with up to 8000 members.

There is only one KKK group cited in North Carolina, in the central part of the state, but our research on the net showed two.

Research shows KKK chapters sometimes form alliances with white supremacist groups. Only one of the white supremacist groups, the Hammerskin Nation, has a presence on a national scale.

Statistics show a regional chapter, the Confederate Hammerskins, is active in North Carolina and other states.

Wonderful blog! I found it while searching on Yahoo News.
Do you have any tips on how to get listed in Yahoo News?
I've been trying for a while but I never seem to get there! Cheers

My developer is trying to persuade me to move to .net
from PHP. I have always disliked the idea because
of the expenses. But he's tryiong none the less. I've been
using WordPress on a number of websites for about a year and am nervous about switching to another platform.
I have heard very good things about blogengine.net. Is there a way I can import all my wordpress
content into it? Any kind of help would be really
appreciated!

I don't know whether it's just me or if everyone
else encountering issues with your blog. It appears like some of
the written text within your content are running off the screen.
Can someone else please provide feedback and let me know if
this is happening to them as well? This may be a issue
with my browser because I've had this happen previously. Thanks

Hmm it looks like your blog ate my first comment (it
was super long) so I guess I'll just sum it up what I had written and say, I'm thoroughly enjoying your blog.

I as well am an aspiring blog blogger but I'm still new to the whole thing. Do you have any helpful hints for novice blog writers? I'd certainly appreciate it.

When I initially commented I clicked the "Notify me when new comments are added" checkbox
and now each time a comment is added I get several e-mails with the
same comment. Is there any way you can remove people from that service?

Cheers!

Hello. I noticed your site title, "Blogger: War on Racism" does not really reflect the content of your web site.

When composing your website title, do you believe it's most beneficial to write it for Search engine optimization or for your audience? This is one thing I've
been battling with due to the fact I want good rankings
but at the same time I want the best quality for my website visitors.

Surfing around delicious.com I noticed your site
book-marked as: Blogger: War on Racism. Now i'm assuming you book marked it yourself and wanted to ask if social bookmarking gets you a large amount of targeted visitors? I've been looking at doing some book-marking for a few of my sites but wasn't sure if it would yield any positive results. Many thanks.
