Not sure if you're being sarcastic or not :/
The Olympian is known to put it's own little spin on things. They wouldn't like to throw around words like neo Nazi's, because that puts the city in a bad light.
So I wouldn't be surprised if I did put more research into that than the journalist who wrote the article. I was checking out several different sources as well as keeping in contact with some friends on the scene.
So while I acknowledged that some of what I wrote was based on hearsay. Some of it is verifiable fact.
Also, just dug up this picture taken a few days ago at the first gathering out front of the police department. Nothing substantial, but it seem like an abnormal amount of bald heads.

Hey, perhaps before you get all shitty and snarky. You learn a bit about what the fuck your talking about.
If you roll around as a skin head with confederate flags in the back of your truck, SS tattoos and swastikas then your a neo Nazi.
Olympia has had some issues with these sorts in the past. Back in 2006 there was a neo Nazi rally that turned violent. Back in 86 there was an fbi raid on a Nazi compound up near Whidbey island that ended in a gun battle.
Just because we don't like to acknowledge the racism in the PNW doesn't mean it's not there.
This particular group has decided to gather with the sole purpose to start shit. The group consisted of white supremacist's from throughout Washington and Oregon, despite the situation they showed up to being a local thing. Initially they showed up to show support for the cops solely because of the black lives matter demonstrations taking place. Don't be mistaken, these guys are just trying to provoke shit.
And again, please refrain from talking about what you don't know. These punks are a group and a mindset that have done a lot of good for this town. Many are members of groups who help clean up downtown and keep it safe.
Finally, when a group of neo Nazi's try to start shit in your town? Not their town, but your own. What would you do?
