Did anyone watch it last night? Theroux is getting MUCH better at interviewing people like this. It was a blood-boiling experience to begin with; seeing these ignorant bigots happily throwing racial slurs around with pride on their faces. Tom Metzger was the main focus of the program; supposedly the US's most famous racist (though he has friends who are hispanic, and probably gets on like a house on fire with every black person who showed the self restraint not to kill him), though there were plenty of other assorted oddities (including Metzger's manager-cum-agent, of whom more later).
The worst of it was seeing various deranged racists raising their children in much the same manner. You saw these kids and thought "you don't have a chance". Worst of all were the two 11 year old twins, Lynx and Lamb (even the names should be enough to get Social Services involved) who were singing racist songs like some demonic SS Club 7. Yet their mother wasn't proud enough of the way she was raising them to, for example, let them go to school. Or publically admit to her racist beliefs. Or allow her kids to talk about them in public. Oh yeah; you just KNOW these two little girls are gonna grow up with some serious issues.
Happily, these people were gradually exposed as the self important morons they are; the 'massive' skinhead rally was attended by no more than about 100 people (and if they really do want 'the second American Civil War' to start in LA, lets see 'em put their money where their mouth is and try to start a fight with the Crips or the Bloods), Metzger turned out to be a shambling idiot, who's 'ambassadorial' visit to Mexico turned into a pub crawl, and who has deluded fantasies about how important he is (when few seem to care; before reading this post/seeing the program, had you heard of him). The mother of those twin girls was clearly obsessive compulsive in her hate of non-whites in much the same way as some people get OCD about cleanliness. And the skinheads themselves were angry fools who wanted the world to be at their beck and call, but were too stupid and lazy to figure our why it isn't.
In the closing stages of the program, Theroux confronted pretty much all of the major players in the documentary with their hypocrisy and stupidity. And he did it unflinchingly and brilliantly; the man has balls the size of Jupiter. I mean, how you you feel being a Jew at a skinhead rally. I'm non-Jewish and I wouldn't do it! I'd be filling my pants to record levels.
Finally, Metzger's manager. Ever see the Lethal Weapon series? And Leo Getz? It was him made flesh. I could watch a program all about this slimy, amoral, corrupt, but thanks to his ineptitude and nervousness, strangely endearing man.

The last line should read, 'sure was funny in showing the ignorance of some of these people.'

Der Nazi, you really should change your name. If someone sees your name, they are gonna believe you're racist. I reckon you should change it to Der Nazified. Oh well, it's up to you.
As for the programme, I missed it but it certainly sounds interesting, reminds me of that show with the BNP youngster who was infiltrated by a reporter who was Jewish. Cannot remember the name of the show though but it sure was funny and showed the ignorance of some of these people.

Watched the last 1/2 hour of this...
Just plain wierd.
Just plain wierd.
It was very eye-opening. these people are crazy. The music that the twins sang along to in the car was dreadful- I'm surprised people can actually live like that. Nutters.
And that rally- what a shambles. 50 pi$$ed skinheads listening to some old guy doing a fascist salute. Lame but terrible.
BTW, My nickname DOESN'T mean I am a fascist.
