Several groups of neo-Nazis tried to boycott various events of the LGTBI community in the United States last Saturday, breaking into celebrations held in public parks with flags with swastikas and more National Socialist symbols, brandishing semi-automatic weapons and chanting threatening and violent chants.
The incidents have taken place in various parts of the country in the 'Pride in the Park' celebrations, and all of them have been carried out by the 'Blood Tribe', "a neo-Nazi group with roots in the United States and Canada that promotes points of views hardline white supremacists and openly directs its virulence against Jews, non-whites and the LGBTQ community," according to the Anti-Defamation League (ADL) of the US. social networks.
One of them has been produced in Watertown, Wisconsin. A journalist present at the event, which included drag shows and other festive celebrations, shared images of Blood Tribe members with weapons and chanting slogans such as "us or the pedophiles", "pedophiles off our streets" and "There will be blood, blood, blood."
One of the organizers of the event told the Watertown Daily Times that the intention of the event was "to be a beacon for those who cannot be themselves publicly and we want to show them that Watertown is a safe place for them."
The event was also denounced by another platform, Gays againts groomers, denouncing the acts as "a sample of what children are subjected to", although none of them were directed at them.
Also in Columbus, Ohio, there were riots at a similar event. A group of men wearing Nazi symbols and armed with semi-automatic rifles tried to frighten a peaceful and festive spectacle in a public park. The images were collected by Newsweek.
