So, once all these Neo-Nazi, Klan thugs are all

outed on the Internet, are they going to be wearing masks or maybe hoods next time? If they aren't stopped and cited by law enforcement or in some way identified, we'll have a different problem on our hands. And when confronted, what are we going to do about it? Pull the hoods off? It's unknown territory we're heading into.

In fact, quite a few cities have that ordinance, selectively enforced and completely ignored on Halloween.

I just figure they won't keep posing for cell phone pix and they won't stop threatening people all that easily either. Best stay a step ahead if possible. On the other hand, what can they do to stay anonymous? I hope nothing or they do go underground and stay there.

They control the streets by taking control with violence and the threat of violence. Internet pressure means nothing to them.

at upcoming rallies. We will find out how effective the outing is (I think it is). They are exposing themselves worldwide. Airlines and countries may block them from boarding. Germany and many other countries consider them terrorists so they can't enter them.
