Antifa Take Credit for Taking Down NSM Road Signs in 2010

A communiqe from Colorado Indymedia:

"In 2010 a group of Nazis or Neo-Nazis in the Denver area created the Denver chapter of the National Socialist Movement (NSM), proudly displaying their group on their website, including a contact form for membership requests. The white-supremacist, white-separatist, nationalist, and thoroughly fascist group took pictures of their members, announced events, and even managed to successfully receive an "adopt a highway" sign from the Colorado Department of Transportation. In response, area anti-fascists removed all of the signs from highway 85, outside of downtown Brighton. They even sent a communique to the media, but the story was not picked up. No other communication of the action was made, on the internet for example, for fear that any site that hosted it would be associated with certain people or groups that might be targets for retaliation. Later, the Department of Transportation replaced the signs. So again anti-fascists took them down again. However, with the launching of rockymountain antifa, we feel that the cat is already out of the bag, and that any retaliation is already risked, so there is no harm in publishing our actions. Since the replacement of the signs by CDT, and their subsequent removal, the CDT has not replaced the signs again, effectively denying the NSM their message of hate."

Nazi Graffiti in Arvada Covered Up by Antifascists

We are pleased to state that our inaugural post as Rocky Mountain Antifa is a post of substance and action. A report and several pictures informed us of a rash of Nazi graffiti in East Arvada. Targets included the Lutz soccer field, Vanderhoof elementary school, a park adjacent to Vanderhoof, a wall dividing the nearby neighborhood from 58th Avenue, and the Arvada Plaza. Two antifascists took it upon themselves to cover up the filth and leave an antifascist message, and several members of the neighborhood were reportedly overheard talking about how slow the city was to respond and that it was a good thing people had taken the initiative to cover it up themselves.

Swastika on bridge in children's park

Bridge in children's park. Graffiti reads "nigger killa", the "SS" symbol and several swastikas

Wall in children's park. Graffiti reads "White Power" with several swastikas


After the antifascists visited in the night, that bullshit looked more like this:
Crossed out swastika in children's park

Crossed out swastika on elementary school sign

Crossed out SS symbol

Crossed out "White Power"

Crossed out swastika and antifa arrows

Crossed out "nigger killa"

Crossed out "White Power"
Clearly, the antifascists sent a message to the neighborhood and the coward Nazi scum that did this to an elementary school and children's park that this area won't take any of this lying down. The antifa also reported removing several fascist stickers in the area in preceding weeks, including Combat 18 and for an Arvada-based Neo-Nazi merchandise distributor DRP Industries.
