A group of demonstrators wearing black clothing, some holding Nazi flags with swastikas, quickly left a Cincinnati-area overpass when they were confronted by residents Friday, video shows.

Coverage from NBC affiliate WLWT of Cincinnati includes video of people walking up to the demonstrators, with police officers between them. The group of more than a dozen demonstrators quickly got into a U-Haul box truck and left.

The demonstration included a sign posted over the freeway as well as individuals pacing with Nazi flags, according to video that aired on the station.

No arrests or injuries were reported in the afternoon incident in the village of Evendale, about 12 miles north of downtown Cincinnati.

1. How does U-Haul feel about human cargo in the box of their trucks?

2. Hi Nbachers. No offense, but I'm going to fix your sentence.

"How does U-Haul feel about human cargo garbage in the box of their trucks?"

There you go-- no charge.

3. That cartoon is priceless!

It's the true State of the Union address.

[Think. Again.]

5. Not to mention the cops ALLOWING them to illegally ride in the back of a uhaul.

[pimpbot]

10. Yea wtf

Cops should have pulled it over soon as they loaded up. Impound the vehicle and make them walk home.

Also would be a good time to check ids for warrants and any illegal weapons.

Law and order my ass.

4. Were the Nazi's blocking traffic?

If they were, does Ohio have an "I can run over people blocking traffic law" like Florida
And... how much we wanna bet the police were more concerned about the Black people holding hands than they were about the Nazi's

6. The white supremacist group "Patriot Front" is known to use U-Hauls for transport

Anyone remember this from a couple years ago in Idaho?

Well they did it again last summer in Nashville -

13. Thanks, BRDS. U-Haul trucks have no seat belts. One accident and they're all injured. Neanderthals all.

[BumRushDaShow]

15. Well it has advantages

"Stealthy" with no indication as to what is inside and they can do a telephone-booth style "see how many you can fit in a truck" thing.

[C0RI0LANUS]

16. Fcuk'em where they breathe. You wonder how many folks are gonna throw eyeballs at U-Haul trucks now.

7. Thank you, Cincinnati heroes!

May we all have such bravery when facing evil people

But it's great that you included photos of the scum

14. I apologize, Wicked Blue, I didn't catch your OP. There's so much crap out there, I can't keep up.

With your permission, I won't self-delete my OP and kudos to you for catching this story.

11. When fascism comes to America, it will be wrapped in the flag, carrying a cross, and pour out of a U-Haul box truck.

[twodogsbarking]

12. But the Nazis are still alive?

[TommyT139]

17. UHaul could track down the customer info, surely.

Especially if anyone can get license plate numbers.

Or do the rental trucks have identification numbers on the side?

[C0RI0LANUS]

18. Good idea. But U-Haul trucks are just large advertising vehicles-- no numbers visible on it.

But now groups like the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC) can possibly initiate a lawsuit against U-Haul. This is how the SPLC broke the back of the KKK decades ago.

Class action lawsuits are one tool the Southern Poverty Law Center uses to bring systemic change. By filing lawsuits on behalf of an entire class of plaintiffs, the SPLC can ensure that its successful litigation has far-reaching effects, potentially benefiting entire communities, rather than only a few individuals.
