I came across this propaganda video advertising a group I’ve not heard of before called Smoky Mountain Resistance. The video uses buzz words such as patriot and white pride to make their point. I have no idea who is behind this, but I’d like to know more, just to keep an eye on ’em.

Go here for a message board for www.smokymountainresistance.com.

    From my viewpoint, all racial pride is unjustified. And fear is fear. It does seem that crime is on the rise in this region, but that perhaps has more to do with an increasing population and economic disparity than it does with a racial dichotomy.

    I find it amusing that you posted this story a few spots down from the story about the increasing crime in Asheville by Illegal Immigrants….and then the comment about wishing the local news would do a story about SMR…watch the news….in the last few days: Murders, Bank Robberies, Assaults….and you chose to fear a "Proud White Man"……..why?….SMR does not advocate any illegal activity. We encourage people to be community role models and to lead by example….it is amazing how fast the brainwashed public links White Pride to Evil Hate Mongers….

    This is one of the scariest elements of our local culture, the home of Kirk Lyons, etc and what I WISH the local news media would focus on instead of another "it’s cold, people are shopping, the home market is rising," etc nonsense that WLOS takes so much glee in covering. If I see one more traffic at the mall story, I’m gonna puke.

    Interesting. I expect that, if the economy collapses like they think it might, that we’ll be seeing more of this as well as more signs painted with 6-pointed stars… plus a few more we’ve not yet imagined.
