On March 10th, 2007, members of the National Socialist Movement, a Neo-Nazi group from Minnesota, held a march in Columbia, Missouri, my town. The reaction to them was intense and filled with hatred, which led the march to descend into some confrontations with the police.
On a personal level, this was hard for me to shoot. I despise racism in all its forms and incarnations and believe that hate speech is a terrible force in this country. At the same time, I believe in Free Speech, and that everyones opinion is valid. So while I hated these Neo-Nazi’s I also didn’t sympathize with those taunting and hurling cuss filled tirades back at them. The Constitution is alive and well….
