Tom Metzger

[Sam Pawlett]

James Ridgeway in his _Blood in the Face_  mentions that Tom Metzger calls
himself a "racist trotskyist". His favorite writer is Jack London, "the white
workin' man is getting the shaft in this country" blah-blah-blah. When Metzger
came to Vancouver he needed a police escort _out of the country_.
