I agree with Mike Asher.  If they want a group who is anyone to deny
them. I would suggest however that anti-Nazi's read this group often
and post counters as much as possible. Remember, when they use
censorship, we call it evil, how can we be hypocrites about this.

In a way, its good to have those wack-jobs around, its an excellent
reminder to all of us just hw dangerous these ideas are and that they
are still around and a threat.
