In an effort to counter this tactic with information, the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) has issued a guide for librarians, Public Libraries: A New Forum for Extremists. The guide presents some of the legal questions regarding how a library can respond legally and safely to requests by extremist groups for use of meeting space or other accommodation, while avoiding the kind of confrontations that have erupted in the past, such as the recent gathering of racists at a library in York, Pennsylvania, where police were called in to break up violent clashes between members of the anti-Semitic and racist World Church of the Creator and anti-racism activists. The guide will be distributed to more than 16,000 public libraries nationwide through the League's network of 30 regional offices.

Ack! Those knuckleheads are bad news. A public place should certainly be able to regulate presentation time and whatnot when its inciting or potentially inciting violence. Obviously a narrow path to walk tho.

I wonder if any ATS members are part of the world church of the creator?


I suspect they'd never admit to it, since they're proably too scared to mention that sort of thing even annonymously online.

Huh?????Not familiar with it.

Are you asking me if I'm a member or the original poster?

From researching on the web I can tell you I am not a member nor would I knowingly associate with them.

What is extremist speech, anyway?

Remember: the Constitution is the highest law of the land. A law that is unconstitutional is not legal - it is automatically rendered void by a superseding law.
