Actually White Power stopped calling themselves White Power some years ago lol.

They are now just WP ....seems some snowflakes were a little offended by the original long established name ......
Why do I persist in debating with idiots ? I really should know better :)

In fairness if you type White Power in google you get a load of white supremacy websites and swastika flags. So not surprising they changed their name.

The shock is upside down. It's still Marzocchi.
