The SCLoS Red Shirts takes on the NAACP
In the summer of 2004 we became aware of the fact that he South Carolina NAACP would hold its state convention during the second week of October and because they are still calling for the boycott of South Carolina, they were to meet in Augusta, Georgia. We decided that if they could go to Augusta, we could too. We planned to flag them during their convention. As we planned our protest we contacted the Georgia League about helping us. They agreed and we especially got strong support from the Augusta chapter. We knew that because most of our people work, our ranks would probably be rather thin on Thursday the 7th and Friday the 8th, but we figured that we would be able to muster thirty to forty on Saturday the 9th. But as often happens, our enemies step forward to give us aid.
About two weeks before the convention, Augusta scalawag mayor, Bob Young, at the request of the South Carolina NAACP removed two Second National Confederate flags from the River Walk near where the racist NAACP was to hold its convention. Well, I do not need to tell you that he poked a stick squarely into a Southern hornet nest. Of course, his action angered the SCV, Georgia flaggers and other Southern heritage groups. On Thursday the 7th we had between thirty to thirty-five sign-carrying, flag waving Southrons on the picket line. On Friday the 8th our ranks were a bit thinner, but we were still able to muster about twenty to twenty-five sturdy sons and daughters of the South. But Saturday the 9th presented a sight to warm the heart of any true Southern. We had between one hundred twenty-five and one hundred fifty flag waving, sign carrying, cheering, Rebel-yelling, happy Southern partisans manning the picket lines. And we had signs, oh but did we have signs. To quote a few: THE NAACP IS A HATE GROUP; THE NAACP IS RACIST; THE NAACP HATES OUR SOUTHERN CULTURE; THE NAACP LIES; YOUNG/NAACP IN BED TOGETHER; YOUNG/NAACP ONE AND THE SAME; BOB YOUNG IS A SCALAWAG; and BOB YOUNG ONCE A LIAR ALWAYS A LIAR. You may have noticed that we recycled some of our scalawag Beasley signs. There were, we believe, more flags than flaggers, because we had stuck quite a number of flag poles with flags in the ground and a few flaggers carried two flags. Of course the South Carolina League of the South had our big SCLoS banner there for all to see. And yes, we had our commode on the sidewalk with our up-side-down half man and signs that read “FLUSH THE NAACP”. As usual, it was often photographed.
Quite a number of our South Carolina League members appeared on television and several were quoted in various newspapers. Our chairman, James Layden, had his picture in the Augusta Chronicle. The racist, South-hating NAACP is used to protesting, but not used to being protested. We can only say that there is a new day in Dixie and our enemies must get use to us coming after them.
We declare that the three days of protesting was an unqualified success. We want to extend a big Dixie thank you to the Georgia League of the South for the aid they provided us. Also we thank the SCV members and other Southern heritage members that joined us. And because he helped swell our ranks, perhaps we should thank scalawag Mayor Bob Young. One thing we can say about his actions in the matter is: dumb, dumb, dumb! When will these Southern politicians ever learn?
