Tennessee House Majority Leader William Lamberth, R-Portland, has filed a resolution to condemn neo-Nazism after a march in downtown Nashville that included swastika flags, WKRN reports. The proposed resolution states that “racism and hatred in any form are repugnant and sinful.” It also calls for rejecting those who promote “anti-Semitism, xenophobia, discrimination and racial intolerance in all forms.” The group that marched is believed to have been comprised of members of the extremist groups Blood Tribe and the Vinland Rebels. In a statement about the resolution, Lamberth said, “Tennesseans will never accept or normalize evil, and we denounce any ideology or group motivated by sick hatred and racial intolerance of any human being.”
