Kudos to HARM for cracking a few skulls and coordinating such a successful attack.

The meeting of the Illinois European Heritage Association had been frequently mentioned on the "White Pride" webforum ***************. It was called the "5 th Annual White Nationalist Economic summit" and promoted as an opportunity to "work for whites."

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which monitors extremist group activity, suggested that H.A.R.M. probably matched the names of those organizing the meeting on *************** to those on a membership list of the neo-Nazi National Socialist Movement.

Some more background info on the boneheads who got beat down:

Shawn Thomas Vachet, 40, a former member of the neo-Nazi National Alliance and a moderator on Stormfront who writes there under the name “kayden,” posted invitations to the strategy session and urged supporters to attend. Vachet has drug-related convictions dating back more than 20 years. He has served time in prison and been arrested for a parole violation.

Vachet is also a big supporter and organizer for the so-called Upper Midwest Initiative, which is a plan to entice white Americans to move to five states in the Upper Midwest – South Dakota, North Dakota, Minnesota, Iowa and Nebraska – and particularly to the Sioux Falls, S.D., area. As Vachet puts it, the group “helps kinfolk who want to make the move to the ‘Great White North.’” They should “move to an area that has more Whites (sic) than non-whites … and build racially conscious communities,” Vachet says in one Stormfront post.

Francis John Gilroy, 65, of West Palm Beach, Fla., was charged with unlawful possession of weapons by a felon after a melee that began when 18 masked intruders attacked a group of white nationalists, including Gilroy, who were meeting in a suburban Chicago restaurant last Saturday. Gilroy, who goes by the name “Copperhead” on Stormfront, the white nationalist web forum where the Chicago meeting was promoted, was arrested in 1999 outside of West Palm Beach after refusing to cooperate with police when he was pulled over for failing to signal a turn. According to the Sun Sentinel in Fort Lauderdale, Gilroy wound up in jail because he wouldn’t provide a driver’s license. Broward County sheriff’s deputies then found several handguns, two assault rifles and 3,000 rounds of ammunition in his van. The Sun Sentinel also reported at the time that FBI agents seized documents related to groups called the Florida Patriots, the North Carolina Patriots and what deputies described as “several other active militia groups across the country.” While in the patrol car, Gilroy had to be put in a special restraint after he slipped his handcuffs under his legs from behind his back.

Gilroy apparently wasn’t the only one who brought a gun. Brandon Spiller, 29, told the TinleyParkPatch, a local newspaper, that he had a pistol in his vehicle but was not able to get to it during the attack. The newspapers showed pictures of Spiller in a bloody shirt, with a gash on his head and a swollen eye. “It’s almost as if it was a terrorist attack,” said Spiller, who was hospitalized and received eight staples in his head. He added that he “had no idea” why his group was targeted.

Also taken into custody after the attack was Steven Eugene Speers, 33, of Grand Forks, N.D., who was arrested on a warrant for possession of child pornography from Dallas County, Texas. Speers, who goes by the name “Steven the Viking” on Stormfront, has a long criminal history, with at least four arrests for battery between January 2000 and July 2005. He was released from prison in Florida in 2009 after serving two years for a felony battery conviction. He earlier was convicted in Texas for possessing marijuana.

fuck me.. and one of the fash getting nicked on child pornography warrant... just when you thought it couldn't get any worse for them

kudos for the action to those involved, although reading about it perhaps it could have been played bit better, but then again we weren't there so we can only speculate. Can anybody say what sort of sentences those arrested are looking into? Charges sound pretty harsh..

[Terminator X]

The antifa face charges of aggravated battery, felony mob action, and destruction of property.

Aggravated battery is a Class 3 felony in the state of Illinois, which carries a sentence of 5 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.

Felony Mob Action is a Class 4 felony, which carries a sentence of 6 months to 3 years in prison and a fine of up to $10,000.

Destruction of Property will probably be either a Class 3 or 4 felony.

My guess is that the lower-level felonies will be dropped to misdemeanors or dismissed outright, but that the 5 charged will end up doing some time for the battery charge. Plus, the judge already sounds like a dickhead by not dropping the bail amount.

When did Cmoney get that haircut?

[Anarchist Skinhead]

ok, it does sound bad then. Is the link to defence fund genuine and checked?

[Terminator X]

The link was posted on both HARM's official website and their FB page, so I assume it's genuine.

"And I'm referring to both sides."-Mayor Zabrocki.

Mhmm, I'm sure he's referring to "both sides," while claiming "This is going to cost us a bundle … to our town and a bunch of other towns that responded for you know, a bunch of idiots." I wish I had money to help with the defense fund.

Good show and solidarity.

Don Black, according to HARM's FB page, has apparently taken to his radio show to state that threatening the alleged attackers' families is "taking the moral high ground" and that there will be "violent retribution" if the punishment is not "harsh enough".

[Anarchist Skinhead]

whats their FB page? I want to send few bucks with paypal but the website accepts only cards..
edit- got it, sorry for being an idiot..

Apparently, they didn't learn their lesson the first time around. To whom it may concern, here is photos of the old prick.







Profile on SPLC. I couldn't find his personal address though.

[Terminator X]

He is absolute scum, but fairly irrelevant in the grand scheme of things anymore. He hasn't done anything of note since the 80s and early 90s other than get publicly embarrassed by his wife (who denounced racism), get himself banned from entering the UK, and contribute money to Ron Paul's campaign. Stormfront is run by other assorted thugs, and it's his son, Derek, who does most of the heavy lifting under the "Black" name (radio show, etc). Don does most of his sabre-rattling from behind the curtain.

Very hateable piece of shit, however.

[Terminator X]

Scumfront has taken to posting the names of HARM's Twitter followers, so as always, be careful how you interact online.

[black magick hustla]

not worth the jail time

[Anarchist Skinhead]

As usual brilliant input. Thank you.
Now.. anybody knows if there is a paypal address to pay some money in?
EDIT- just received the reply, they are working on it.

[Zostrianos]

fuck me.. and one of the fash getting nicked on child pornography warrant...

That's the icing on the cake
