The message to the hotel was(and IS) simple-no hotel has any business hosting terrorists like the Ku Klux Klan(several former Grand Wizards were said to be there) and the Keystone State Skinheads, whose reputation for violence is sickening. The KKK and the Nazis are terrorists every bit as much as Al-Qaeda, and the KKK in particular has been called "the most successful terrorist group in history" with over a century of lynching and arson to their "credit."

Keystone State Skinheads Eastern regional Director Keith Carney was seen outside the hotel, as were many other notorious racists.

Early in the protest, the Nazis asked hotel security to remove protesters form the parking lot by force, and the cops complied. This had the effect of causing an almost exclusively white police presence to fight for the Nazis,resulting in a pushing and shoving match, but no arrests.

Included in the police arsenal was a "pepperball gun," a form of high velocity gas projectile launcher.

With police posting snipers on the roof, at protesters posted an "overwatch" of their own for a while, marching up a neighboring hill that overlooks the Crown Plaza Dulles Airport.

As Amren broke for lunch, Nazis and KKK'ers were pursued by protesters to the edges of the parking lot-and in a few cases in nearby streets as well.

Nazi flunkie Jamie Kelso, known also as Charles A Lindberg, had his face spit in while giving a racist interview to the media. He is a senior moderator of Stormfront, according to Wikipedia and a major Ron Paulite as well.

As reported elsewhere,

Kelso is also the personal aid to Mr. Don Black and Mr. David Duke. These men are two of the former KKK Grand Wizards known to have been in attendance at AMREN.

It is somehow not suprising that a racist convention like AMREN would be repeatedly hosted in a place like Herndon, where immigrants are being driven away by brutal racist laws and harassment supported by officials from the Mayor on down. One immigrant called the presence of AMREN a "slap in the face" to Fairfax County, where he lives.
