Groups linked to terrorist Wade Michael Page promoted a Pennsylvania group and event that calls for “action” by whites. On the same white supremacist web site where terrorist Wade Michael Page promoted his racist hate events, a Pennsylvania-based group has been promoting what it calls the “European American Action Coalition (EAAC), led by a Stormfront forum member named Steve Smith. In addition, Pennsylvania EAAC events have been promoted by the “Label 56” racial hate music group that promoted terrorist Wade Michael Page’s bands.
The leader of the Pennsylvania EAAC, Steve Smith, has widely posted on this Stormfront web page (547 postings), where Stormfront supporters have praised and supported terrorism, including the recent attack in Wisconsin. In addition to terrorist Wade Michael Page, the Stormfront organization has also been used by Stormfront supporter and terrorist plotter Daniel Cowart and Pennsylvania’s Richard Poplawski, who was a regular poster on Stormfront before he murdered 3 and wounded 2 Pittsburgh police officers.

The “European American Action Coalition” (EAAC) began promoting its Pennsylvania organization on the Stormfront web site on December 31, 2011 – nearly 8 months ago in a Stormfront area Pennsylvania “activism.” The Associated Press reports that the EAAC group leader Steve Smith was also a member of the Keystone State Skinheads, and was arrested for previous violence against black Americans: “Court records show Smith pleaded guilty in 2003 to state charges of ethnic intimidation and simple assault, both misdemeanors, and was sentenced to one to 12 months in prison. According to a 2003 newspaper account, Smith and two other members of the Keystone State Skinheads yelled racial slurs at a black man and threw a brick at him.”
By January 2012, the EAAC started using the Stormfront white supremacist web site to begin promoting a Wilkes-Barre area Pennsylvania event, which was linked to their web site as the “European American Heritage Celebration will take place August 11, 2012 from Noon-6pm at Mercatili Segilia Park in Moosic, PA.” Moosic is a borough in Lackawanna County, Pennsylvania, six miles south of Scranton and 13 miles northeast of Wilkes-Barre on the Lackawanna River. Also in January 2012, the EAAC group was pleased when its Letter to the Editor promoting its group was published in the Wilkes-Barre area newspaper, the Times-Leader. Another Stormfront supporter in Wilkes-Barre, “Warrior of Truth,” indicated that the the August event was going to have “bands,” and given the “Label 56” group event promotion of this event, it is likely to have been bands similar to the one led by terrorist Wade Michael Page.
The event was cancelled by the Borough of Moosic due to misrepresentation on the application form for usage of a Moosic’s Mercatili-Segilia Park. On the EAAC group’s website, it threatened “action WILL be taken against the borough for their discriminatory acts against the EAAC.” On August 9, 2012, the Times-Tribune originally reported the actions as being against a “white rights group celebration.”

The Label 56 racist music group that promoted terrorist Wade Michael Page’s bands and records, had also promoted the EAAC Pennsylvania event in Moosic scheduled for August 11.

On the EAAC website, the group describes Pennsylvania as ” known across the country – even the world as being an active and successful region for the pro-White cause.” Stormfront supporter and the leader of the EAAC, Steve Smith of Pittston, was elected to the Luzerne County Republican Committee representing Pittston City for a four year term.
The EAAC leaders have previously appeared with leaders of the Stormfront organization at “European American” events.

*****************
As R.E.A.L. has previously posted, Stormfront has a long history of promoting racial hate and its supporters have been involved with and promoted terrorism. We have documented a number of such cases, which has included recent cases of praising the terrorist attack in Wisconsin, and justifying this terrorist attack.
— Daniel Cowart – Stormfront supporter and terrorist plotter – pled guilty in 2010 to a terrorist plot to kill 88 African Americans and Barack Obama – he also shot up a black church
— Richard Poplawski – Stormfront supporter and murderer of police officers – on November 28, 2008 Poplawki post on StormFront read: “I’ve been a longtime lurker on Stormfront, and I see myself probably ramping up the activism in the near future,” then murdered three Pittsburgh police officers and wounded two others in April 2009
— Pentagon Terrorist John Patrick Bedell – Stormfront supporters praised John Patrick Bedell’s terrorist efforts at the Pentagon on March 4, 2010 – wounding two police officers
— Texas Terrorist Joseph Stack – Stormfront supporters praised Joseph Stack’s terrorist attack on the Austin, Texas IRS building on February 18, 2010, killing African American Vernon Hunter, who was an IRS employee and a Vietnam veteran.
— Washington DC Terrorist James Von Brunn – attacked the U.S. Holocaust Memorial Museum in Washington DC on June 10, 2009 – in January 2010, Stormfront supporters eulogized the death of terrorist James Von Brunn who had murdered security guard Stephen Tyrone Johns – Stormfront supporters praised his terrorist attack and called for others to “to hate with violent passion”
To those who believe that Stormfront is merely a group of “harmless” extremists, the cost of being silent to those promoting dangerous hate can be the cost of lives of innocent Americans.
