It's interesting watching the fallout from some of these white supremacists from this weekend. The student from UNR is being made famous when all his classmates started recognizing him and commenting on Twitter. Now he's:

1. Front page on the Reno Gazette Journal

UNR student pictured at Charlottesville rally: Things 'spiraling out of control'

2. Topic on local nightly news

UNR Student Talks After Marching in Charlottesville White Nation - KTVN Channel 2 - Reno Tahoe Sparks News, Weather, Video

3. Being disavowed by the Nevada senator Dean Heller who posed with him in a photograph

Heller: 'No room' in America, UNR or GOP for white nationalism


Imagine how hard it's going to be to get a job after this whether he continues pursuing his degree or not. He also worked for the university, not sure if he still does.

Actually they can if it is a condition of your employment. Many high tech firms require their employees to go through searchs before leaving the premises.

And this is where I draw the line. It is a public uni, part of the government, and as such they should not be allowed to fire this moron or expel him.

You would not be able to find anything in the organizations website that is unconstitutional. More nonsense.
Actually, at it's core nationalism of any kind is about protecting and maintaining that culture whether it is white, black, hispanic, American, German, Nordic or whatever. At it's core it's not about denying anyone else anything. I live in a place where I'm outnumbered by people of other cultures who refuse to adapt to our country and culture and want to have their own closed culture within our society but that's not denying me anything.

That's the problem. Only whites are considered racist which is racist itself.

If that's the way it's going to be, then I personally reject the idea that whites can be racist.

We already have guaranteed service for bakers making cakes, no?

Let's be morally and logically consistent. Let the free market decide. No rights infringed upon and no involuntary 3rd party involvement.

Anyone can be racist. Where have you heard otherwise?

The white nationalist on this thread has said one of his core beliefs is returning America to its white original demographic. likewise a white ethnic state is a stated objective of nearly all white nationalist movements. You do not get to redefine them.

Well that's what happens when we gave up our 1st amendment rights. We lost all rights.
