text: In reply to message4617: I assume that you are referring to me so I will say this. As a national group each state has different consequences and implications. I have been around the Proud Boys since they started especially since we are one of the busiest states besides Washington with rallies, riots and protests. I have said since the beginning that the rallies were a bad idea, now one of our former members is facing 13 months in prison for grabbing a cardboard sign. I said that the website was a bad idea to have our information on, thankfully Oregon avoided issues because we didn't sign up. Where it may be no big deal in your state our alignment with the Proud Boys especially publicly would be front page news. I don't hang out with them not because I hate them but because we are very different in how we represent our groups in public. If anyone one wants to question my fight in this movement by all means step up and take the reigns. The fact that I have to continue to explain myself only proves that national has a hard time seeing past their own state.
