Chattanooga residents urged to stay away from Nazi rally

Chattanooga residents urged to stay away from Nazi rally

With a National Socialist Movement rally at the Hamilton County Courthouse looming, both the movement leaders and the NAACP are encouraging those in opposition to the event to simply stay away.

In a live interview with Brian Joyce on WGOW's "Live & Local" radio show Monday afternoon, NSM commander Jeff Schoep said only those genuinely interested in learning about more about the organization's message should attend the rally, scheduled for 2:30 p.m Saturday.

"We want people to listen with open ears and open minds to what we're saying," Schoep said. "If you're in opposition to us, you shouldn't come down there because there's nothing there for you."

Likewise, the NAACP, citing advice from the Southern Poverty Law Center, is urging people to refrain from contact with the group.


I don't think it's any coincidence that the group's leader has a Hitler-esque appearance.
