Those Who Hate!

Wade Page the Sikh Temple shooter has ties to Neo-Nazi rock bands and chanted off White supremacist rhetoric!

The recent shooting at the Sikh Temple in Wisconsin have brought forth the issue of right wing extremism.

Wade Page is the shooter and his views of society are the reasons for this tragedy to happen.

According to Talking Points Memo, Wade Page was nothing if not a relentless promoter of hate and the style of music he loved.

He found a nexus of both in the world of white power rock, where racist skinheads play their own brand of crunchy, loud punk and metal infused with lyrics trashing Jews, blacks, immigrants and anything else bothering them at the moment.


It didn’t take long to uncover a trail of Page’s postings on various white supremacist message boards, where he constantly promoted the white power bands he played in and knew.


Three's the hard way! Wade Page is on the right!
“Definite Hate is looking for a new drummer,” said one posting written under an alias he frequently used, End Apathy, on a message board for the racist skinhead faction known as the Hammerskins. “Must be a skinhead, committed to White Power and the movement, and have the skills to pay the bills.”

While music was usually his main focus, the postings made clear Page was also deeply involved with the Hammerskins organization. While he was living in North Carolina last year, he posted multiple messages encouraging people to come to “meet and greet” gatherings for the group near the city of Rocky Mount.

“All White nationalists are welcome!” said a message posted by End Apathy that appeared on March 22, 2011. “If you are wanting to meet people, get involved and become active then you really need to attend. Stop hiding behind the computer or making excuses.”

The person using the alias occasionally posted similar messages on the well known white supremacist site Stormfront.org, but he appeared to favorite the Hammerskin message boards at crew38.com. The latter website showed he posted 250 times since joining in March 2010.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks extremism in the U.S., documented Page’s ties to the white supremacist music scene on its own website early Monday. Senior fellow Mark Potok wrote that Page was the leader of a band that shared the name of his message board alias, End Apathy. In interviews later in the day, researchers with the SPLC said they had tracked Page for at least a decade.

Page presented a dangerous theme.

White supremacists are motivated by the hate music, the internet, and the first Black president. The Republicans riling up White voters with controversies such as Operation Fast & Furious, the president's birth certificate, undocumented workers, and a struggling economy. These things are going through mind of the White conservative male. This regurgitation of misinformation has driven White supremacists to the internet to promote views that you'll find when you read the comment section.

Once again, Fox News, The Drudge Report, Rush Limbaugh, Glenn Beck, Bill O'Reilly Michael Savage, Sean Hannity, Bill Cunningham, Michelle Malkin, World Net Daily, and Sarah Palin are riling up extremism.

They can't help themselves. They rather deflect the harsh rhetoric solely on those who criticize them!
