Reply to comment by widget_fucker in Portsmouth pushes back on overnight wave of hateful graffiti targeting Temple, businesses by twosunsyzygy
NSC-131 (a active neo-nazi/white nationalist organization) has had active demonstrations in the last two year around the Seacoast. Last year there put banner along I-95, had a protest with a dozen or more people at the Repertoire in Portsmouth and one at the Kittery Trading Post, they also distributed pamphlets and left racist papers over minority own business and homes. So, there is very much an active neo-nazi group in the area and it has a pretty good handle of where minorities work and live in our communities. The majority of people might choose to ignore, see it as something in isolation, or dismiss this, but as a member of a racial minority (I'm hispanic) we tend to be very vigilant and aware of these types of incidents. To most it just doesn't register or might seem off but to us is a day-to-day aggression and moments like these is when the rest of our community gets to see what we deal with. Not to say they are a cabal of well organize super racist and are truly just a bunch of dickheads playing brown coats, but these actions can escalate and have real consequences to some of us in the community.
