Tennessee Floated as Location for Unite the Right Rally



Hunter Wallace‏ @occdissent

If we held a UTR 2.0 event, which state would be easiest for you to travel to?

36% Kentucky
41% Tennessee
23% Georgia

Tennessee is slightly leading in an informal Twitter poll that may help determine the location for the next Unite the Right rally like the one in Charlottesville last month that left one woman dead and many injured.

White national blogger Hunter Wallace posted the poll Tuesday. Since then, it has garnered the attention of many, including the Tennessee House Democrats group, who retweeted the poll Wednesday.

"Hunter Wallace" is the apparent pen name for Bradley Dean Griffin, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC). Griffin, is "one of the white nationalist movement’s most cogent commentators of the past decade," according to the SPLC. It's a description Griffin uses like an author's blurb on his Twitter page.

Griffin's blog, Occidental Dissent, reports on the white national movement and has a loyal following, according to the SPLC.

Can we just quickly install a wall around their rally ( and whatever confederate monument they select as their rally point). Nobody gets out. That would be a wall I'd be in favor of.
