14/ The @ADL calls the American Guard "hardcore white supremacists."https://www.adl.org/blog/behind-the-american-guard-hardcore-white-supremacists …
15/ Here's some old photos of Camden. That "Firm 22" pendant he's wearing in the second photo signifies his support for the Vinlanders Social Club, one of the most violent skinhead gangs in the country.pic.twitter.com/LGsCM3eLH3
16/ But after attack protesters at the Women's March in January, Resist Marxism couldn't wait to cause more violence.
They immediately started planning a rally for Providence in April.
@AndyBCampbell leaked those chats, showing the violence they planned.https://www.huffpost.com/entry/proud-boys-chat-logs-premeditate-rally-violence-in-leaked-chats_n_5ce1e231e4b00e035b928683 …
17/ Resist Marxism and the Proud Boys planned to target specific activists, posting photos of the weapons they planned to bring with which to attack activists.https://www.huffpost.com/entry/proud-boys-chat-logs-premeditate-rally-violence-in-leaked-chats_n_5ce1e231e4b00e035b928683 …
18/ The rally was rescheduled for June, and then eventually cancelled. But this is the pattern of violence that Sahady brings to everything he organizes. He brings hate groups like the American Guard, Patriot Front, and the Proud Boys with him.
19/ And while he's not a Proud Boy himself, he still warmly supports them.pic.twitter.com/FqTCC3QZ1b
20/ Meanwhile, Michael Moura, the spokesman for Resist Marxism is currently screaming about how they have "brothers" in federal prison, including James Fields, who murdered Heather Heyer at the first Unite the Right rally in 2017.pic.twitter.com/UcJ0rlo9CB
21/ Moura's also accusing people of being "fed informants," which suggests Resist Marxism may be under some kind of federal investigation? That could explain why they're trying to rebrand as a straight pride parade.pic.twitter.com/3uADX7X4iz
22/ Here's the tl;dr-- Mark Sahady has a long history of associating with violent hate groups. When he organizes events, they turn violent. The straight pride parade will attract violent hate groups.
23/ So what can you do to help?
Tell @marty_walsh and City Hall to cancel the permit for the straight pride parade.
This isn't about free speech, it's about public safety.
The organizers have a documented history of staging violent events.
24/ Call the Mayor's office at 617-635-4500 and ask them to cancel the straight pride permit. Here's a phone script you can use.pic.twitter.com/pHfLz3s58Z
25/ The police won't protect us.
We've seen the police protect members of violent hate groups who come from outside Boston to attack Bostonians.
It's on us to protect our communities.
Share this with everyone you know, and shine some light on the straight pride parade.
26/ If you're comfortable with a Facebook event, check out an opposition protest for this parade. Solidarity Against Hate-- Boston is organizing a protest here. https://www.facebook.com/events/2233546250067653/ …
