The Lowell High School student newspaper published Friday included a paid advertisement for a white supremacist Web site, reportedly paid for a group promoting a "campaign to inform, awaken and radicalize our White American youth."

The site, URL redacted by Newsjock, features "white resistance music" as well as T-shirts, stickers and links to similar sites.

The ad in The Lowell said "Free Music Downloads" and included the Web site address in a small box below an Arby's ad inside the paper.

... It appears as if the ad's creators attempted to deceive school faculty and students. The Web link in the ad looked dramatically different Friday than it did prior to the when the ad ran.

... An anonymous e-mail reportedly from the Web site's authors sent to local media said the advertisements were placed in student newspapers across the country to appear Friday and would be running through next week "and in the future."

1. Huh. Looks like typical AN propaganda.

Cute trick, though, get an ad approved, and then change the site.

3. We should get them taken offline.

Their registrar, Domainsbyproxy.com states it is prohibited to:

"• Engage in morally objectionable activities, including but not limited to those which are child pornographic, defamatory, abusive, harassing, obscene, racist, or otherwise objectionable."

And the host, WildWestDomains.com has a similar terms of use.

5. At Lowell?!

Where 85 percent of the student body is non-Caucasian?

Where they've actually had to resort to affirmative action to keep the percentage of white students even that high?

Boy, that's gonna go over like a lead balloon. Hopefully the end result will be a good old-fashioned ass-kicking.
