America is a white nation: More racist fliers spotted at University of Maryland

What arrogance! "OUR AMERICA". Arrogance! "exclusively for the White American peoples'. Arrogance!"peoples who out of the barren hills, empty plains, and vast mountains forged the most powerful nation to ever have existed"

This Country was stolen from Native Americans and built on the backs of slaves. Such a pathetic attempt to name it yours due to your White Privilege. We are all children of immigrants that is a fact unless you are a Native American. Deal with it...this Counrty is not yours alone.

A flier is seen Monday on the University of Maryland at College Park campus. (Osvaldo Gutierrez)

White supremacist fliers were found Monday at the University of Maryland campus in College Park for the third time in three months, following similar incidents recently at universities across the country.

Two fliers were discovered outside the university’s chemistry department.

“It is your civic duty to report any and all illegal aliens,” one flier said. “They are criminals. America is a white nation.”

The other read: “Carry the torch of your people.” Fliers also were found at three other locations, according to the Diamondback student newspaper.

In a “manifesto” on its website, the group writes: “Our America is to be a nation exclusively for the White American peoples who out of the barren hills, empty plains, and vast mountains forged the most powerful nation to ever have existed; it is logical that America must be once again built from the ground up to recapture the glory an Aryan nation deserves.

the ongoing 'whitelash' that carried that racist, misogynistic pig to the White House.

We need to have zero tolerance for hate. Especially when expressed by our leaders and elected officials.

We are NOT a white country. We are a meltingpot from all over but we are also a nation of laws.

By the worst impulses of humanity.

It was already on the back pages of places like Reddit and 4Chan. It was part of gamergaters and the MRA "movement". It drove the idea that equal economics means equal social justice.

These things didn't just appear. They've always been with us. The fight was never over, never won. All it took was one white man to empower the impulse. And look at us now.

Just like trump is being normalized. It is normal now to be outwardly racist and given a pass. Misogynist, normal. Assault, normal. Islamophobia, normal. Anti-Semitic, normal. Homophobic, normal.

Normalized. Accepted. Legitimate. Unpunishable.

into the Southwest against the will of Mexico, which owned it. No mention of gross discrimination for two plus centuries.
