United in the Fourteen Words--"We must secure the existance of our race and a future for White children", Maryland White Pride seeks to bring together fellow White Marylanders who have pride in their race, culture and heritage. There exists today a blatant double-standard in government, the media and in society, where people of any race, creed, or ethnic group may be proud of who they are with the exception of White people. As members of the dispossessed majority of Maryland, we believe that we have no place in the current system. We are trapped between those that sell us out and bleed us dry on a political level and those that rape, rob, and murder us on a street level. And whereas we do know that Race transcends both the political and street level, we oppose anyone of any race who ruins the future of the decent and hardworking people of our communities.

Bill White convicted in Virginia

ROANOKE, Va., Dec. 18 (UPI) -- A federal jury in Virginia Friday convicted neo-Nazi William A. White of threatening and trying to intimidate litigants in a housing discrimination lawsuit.

White, the self-proclaimed commander of the American National Socialist Workers Party, was convicted of three counts of communicating threats in interstate commerce and one count of witness intimidation, the U.S. Justice Department said in a release.

During his trial, witnesses testified that from late 2006 through mid-2008, White targeted individuals and engaged in a pattern of threatening communications -- late-night phone calls, e-mails and Web site postings -- that left the recipients fearing for their personal safety.

White, who was acquitted on three other counts, faces a maximum of 25 years in prison. No date was given for sentencing.

"For an extended period of time, William White has hidden behind the First Amendment while making racist remarks and threatening people who are different from him," said Timothy Heaphy, U.S. attorney for the Western District of Virginia. "While the First Amendment protects our ability to express views even if unpopular, it does not provide a license to threaten, intimidate, and inflict emotional distress. William White did just that, using hateful words as a sword.

"We appreciate the strength of the victims of those hateful words. Because they came forward, William White will be held accountable for his misguided attempt at intimidation."
