At around 1 p.m. the group of people marched together wearing jackets, hats, and white masks. In videos posted by the group, some are seen carrying the 13 colonies flag and the An Appeal to Heaven flag, while other carried banners with the words Deport Invaders, Keep America American.

masks increases the chances that hateful rallies will be held. They depend upon hate with impunity.
2) damn! I missed an opportunity to moon haters!
