90 years ago his father was reportedly arrested following a Ku Klux Klan rally in 1927 after NYC brawls that erupted by sympathizers of the Italian fascist movement and the Ku Klux Klan. The fascist brawl, which took place in The Bronx, Italian men were killed by anti-fascists. Meanwhile, 1,000 white-robed Klansmen marched in Queens winding down an all-out brawl with him and six others arrested.

Nearly one century later, his son has set new lows for not only immediately failing to single out violent and deadly actions of a Hitler lover white supremacists, neo nazis, then pardons a former sheriff who was convicted after racially targeting Latinos. US Justice Department said Arpaio's office had committed the worst patterns of racial profiling it had ever seen.
This pardon makes Arpaio an Easy Rider by a hypocritical, insincere statement which reflects on present day American society. Furthermore, Presidents Barack Obama, George W. Bush, and Bill Clinton waited until their second years in office to grant any pardons.
As a result, counter-protesters are gearing up for rallies that are being billed by some as right-wing or white supremacist. A Patriot Prayer event is scheduled in San Francisco's Alamo Square Park this afternoon. At least a dozen counter-protests are planned. Knoxville, Tennessee is bracing for an influx from newly reformed white supremacist group, which plans to protest the removal of monuments honoring Confederate soldiers.
