A Marine who was arrested in May for flying a white nationalist banner during a Confederate celebration has been kicked out of the Marine Corps.
Staff Sgt. Joseph Manning was arrested on May 20 in Graham, North Carolina, after hanging a banner with a white supremacist expression, the Marine Corps Times reported. Manning was charged with first degree trespass.
Manning, who joined the Corps in 2002, is a Purple Heart recipient who served in both Afghanistan and Iraq.

“You will not replace us” is a white supremacist slogan? There are pictures of liberals walking around with signs like “We will replace you” and “LOL Your grandkids will be brown.” Seems like a valid retort to these anti-white scum.
Doesn’t seem like the banner was promoting white supremacy but rather was simply pro-white.
Go figure. Learn something new every day.
Apparently these days "white supremacists slogans" are whatever the ADL or SPLC says they are.
Agreed.
Is he an Albino or just another person with color?
Stupid fella appears to have thrown away everything he worked for the last 15 years. He will not get his 20 years in. The good news is that under the new retirement system a 401k-like system will replace it. It may not be as good but then it just may. In the meantime knuckleheads like that can be given zero tolerance and still get out with more than a little something. It’s certainly better than nothing.
I follow the Proud Boys a little. I think that’s one of their slogans.
The New York Liberal Democrat based broadcasting system arbiters of morality have already rendered their decision on this point.
It is a sign of the resistance; it must be quashed...
Time to sue in Federal court.
Two things here; was he kicked out for displaying this dubious "white supremacist" slogan or for criminal trespassing?
Second, as a Staff Sergeant, he should know that there are few quicker ways to get kicked out than being in a leadership position and being perceived as a racist. And, yes, there is a double standard. We can bitch about it all night long but it is what it is. Getting arrested at a white nationalist rally and being on the side of the white nationalists is going to put your career on pretty thin ice.
That’s all the sign said?
I figured it had to be something REALLY drastic to get kicked out.
Like aryan nation stuff.
He doesn't qualify for the new blended retirement system. He's going home with nothing to show for 15 years of service.
The PC elite in the Military can go # themselves.
WWIII is the war on whites/white men/western culture.
It began awhile ago.
Since when are United States Marines denied 1st Amendment rights ? Especially when they are off duty, off base and in civilian clothing .
This is pure BS
The USMC needs to find it’s balls again . After Obama almost emasculated them .
I think Neller is on the e-mailing list of the Southern Poverty ‘Law’ Center
He dared to imply that something was wrong with the invasion of our country (legal or otherwise); the media is trying to ensure that Trump’s victory (in which many “America-firsters” overthrew the elites) isn’t repeated.
From the article, that is all it said.
If it had been a black Marine flying a Black Lives Matter banner, would he have been kicked out?
Maybe if he took a knee in front of the flag?
