Group is out of Florida and New York, publicity seeking. Fake News is easy...
AT least use a credible news source (NOT AL.com)
"As of now, we do know that the website is based out of Florida," Woodard said Tuesday. "It says New York on the website, but it’s based and was created in Florida at one of those think-tank type of places.
"We do know that the same type of flyers went up today at the University of Georgia and my understanding is that there have possibly been sightings of them at the University of Alabama as well."
"We've been watching White Student Unions since 2012," Brooks said. "We haven't identified them as a real group yet. I don't want to give them this impression that they've got this huge profile based on this one incident of fliering."
The white supremacist fliers and posters have been reported in more than 25 states, according to the Anti-Defamation League.

AUBURN, Ala. (AP) — Auburn University officials are disavowing hate fliers found around campus and say they're unfamiliar with a group claiming responsibility.
A university statement says a group calling itself the Auburn White Student Union isn't affiliated with the school. It calls the fliers "reprehensible."
Social media shows anti-Semitic leaflets that have been found around the east Alabama campus in recent days. A group calling itself the White Student Union recently established a website with similar racist and anti-Semitic statements.
Meanwhile, white nationalist leader Richard Spencer has released a video saying he plans to speak on the Auburn campus next week.
Spencer is a neo-Nazi who made news by using a Hitler salute to praise President Donald Trump. A university statement released Wednesday says the school deplores Spencer's views.

Former Auburn running back Brandon Jacobs...
"At Auburn, there isn't that many great people,"Jacobs said. "You are everything to these people if you are an athlete. Normal black people don't get treated like we do. If you aren't an athlete, they don't want anything to do with you, and that isn't right."

Can't imagine has a space in a classroom or theater. Maybe he's going to talk on the concourse like the crazy preacher who used to call all the co-eds whores back in the 90s...

Same can be said at Alabama and probably all other SEC schools. Probably most major and small schools honestly

At first I was going to ask if there was a Black Student Union at Auburn. When I read it, it was obvious they were a bigoted group.
ETA
Saw where they have no affiliation with Auburn. can Auburn sue them for using the name? is there anything Auburn can do?

Richard Spencer is speaking at Foy Hall on campus Tuesday at 7.
His appearance at A&M directly led to rules changes for who could use university facilities. Before it was basically open to anybody who could pay the rent.

"This group isn't an Auburn student organization, and we find the views expressed in their materials reprehensible and unrepresentative of those of the university," the University said. "Auburn University supports the constitutional right to free speech and encourages the campus community to practice that right in a constructive atmosphere with respect to others. Auburn also encourages the campus community to respond to speech they find objectionable with their own views in the spirit of robust exploration of ideas."

I'm sure that's how it is right now and the university stepping in would cause open season for First Amendment violations
Who the hell gave Richard Spencer access to AU to spread his hatred?
