Neo-Nazi Senate candidate kicked out of California GOP convention

Source: CBS News

SAN DIEGO -- An anti-Semitic Senate candidate who praised Adolf Hitler has been kicked out of the California Republican Party's convention in San Diego. State GOP spokesman Matt Fleming says Patrick Little was ejected from the gathering Saturday.

Little is running against Democrat Sen. Dianne Feinstein, who's seeking a fifth full term. He made headlines when a recent poll put him in second place with 18 percent of the vote.

Little's campaign website advocates for "limiting representation of Jews in the government."

Fleming says Little has never been an active member of the party. Fleming says the GOP condemns "anti-Semitism and any other form of religious bigotry."

Patrick Little - anti-semitism, doesn't like Jews

Also found this bit about a republican white nationalist

(the folks our conservatives were so proud that had a permit to march in Charlottesville)

https://www.snopes.com/fact-check/patrick-little-neo-nazi-california/

I propose a government that makes counter-semitism central to all aims of the state. A government:

1) Of a People, for that people, free from jews

2) That cannot revoke the right to bear arms, such that this people can remain free from jews

3) that forbids all immigration except of biological kin, where no person of jewish origin may live, vacation, or traverse

But whenever a Dem speaks out about it, the media labels them "elitist".

7. I think he should fight every challenge to his qualifications to be a fine GOP candidate.

Was he not tough enough on crime, specifically black crime? Did he not support doing business with those with no star of David on their place of business? Did he not advocate for separate neighborhoods for whites, blacks, and other properly vetted aliens?

This is what the GOP stands for now days as far as the integration of society and the mixing along racial and religious lines that happen to coincide with actual boundaries and neighborhoods. Jews live with Jews (somewhere else), blacks live with blacks (in another state), and illegal aliens live on busses being transported to the fields.

If the candidate represents the real people in their district then they should be allowed to run for office representing those whose base is "limiting representation of Jews in the government." That is their right. I would love to see hundreds of these idiots run for office. It makes matching the faces up with pictures in the post office easier.

Like their counterparts, the GOP like to pretend anti-Semitism is offensive to them; it isn't. But, it is anti-Semitism, so few will take notice or care.

9. What is wrong w/ this people? Maybe one day realism will steep into their brains ...

but I doubt it. They seem to think that all evil comes from all others but themselves.

To those who send nothing but hate...maybe if you really truly look at yourselves, and see what your hatred is getting you...and you'll see that this hatred is doing absolutely nothing for you, but instead, working against you.

Normal everyday Americans like us here on DU land and beyond are totally repulsed by these idiotic displays of hatred, and the proof is revealed w/ the massive counter protests that are organized against the so called neo Nazi and the like when they march.

The real world, sure, has its problems, but at least we're trying to make things better for all of us. More jobs, better pay and benefits, health care for all, better social security nets to help our ailing elderly and the disabled who need the help, help our kids get the schooling that they deserve, better help for those families that need baby sitters/and such help so they can get good jobs while their kids are being taken care of properly, more equable tax code, and so forth.

All of this can be accomplished by all of us for all of us.
