A co-founder of Proud Boys said Friday he will sue Democratic presidential nominee Joe Biden and media outlets that have called the organization "white supremacist" and "Nazi."
"I'm suing them. I'm suing Joe Biden. I'm suing CNN. All of these reporters that call this multi-racial patriotic group white supremacists and Nazis," said Gavin McInnes in an interview with Newsmax TV.
Tarrio said in a written statement provided to USA Today that Proud Boys has "longstanding regulations prohibiting racist, white supremacist or violent activity."
"We do not care what color you are or what your background is ... if you love America ... we consider you a brother," Tarrio said.
In November 2018, after media reported the FBI had classified the Proud Boys as an extremist group with ties to white nationalism, bureau officials held a briefing denying the claim.
The FBI agents said it was not their intent to classify the entire group but to characterize a possible threat from certain individuals. However, the agents suggested using the website of the discredited Southern Poverty Law Center as a resource. The SPLC has broadly labeled people who hold traditional views on subjects such as marriage as "extremists" or members of "hate groups."

"No amount of evidence will ever persuade and idiot(S)." Mark Twain. Since the left has cast the label, it probably wouldn't matter if they win in court. Meanwhile pantyfa and #bm remain unscathed by anyone trying to label them. And we know that #bm is pulling in millions in guilt money from multiple corporate dumbasses. Has anyone audited shawn 'talcum x' king yet?

The media doesn’t care. They did their drive-by, and now forever, like Trump’s supposed graveside remarks, and the “fine people” hoax, it’s burned into the public conscience forever.

The left has made "right wing", "alt-right", "conservative", and even "republican", etc. synonyms for "white supremacist". They have been doing word matching with our whole lexicon for decades now and its way past time to put a stump in front of that plow.

Yes! And somebody notify the spineless Republicans who jumped on the anti-Proud Boys bandwagon that they should apologize.

It’s amazing what Chappelle could do without any accusations of racism. If a cracker did those skits it would be straight to the electric chair.

Chappelle Show was two years of comedy gold.

Last year he did a Netflix special where he ripped on Jesse Smollet and the lbgtqrstuv crowd. Hilarious.

I consider Proud Boys neither right nor left but rather straight-down-the-middle-of-the-road American Patriots. Kinda like the guys I went to ‘Nam with
