Not Wanted: Taking the Fight to Craig Cobb
On the morning of Saturday April 24, the Skinheads Against Racial Prejudice (SHARP) had called for a demonstration against the employer of known Neo-Nazi Craig Cobb.
Cobb's employer, telemarketing firm Xentel DM, had fired him at around 7pm the day before after massive pressure from anti-racist groups. Anti-racism organizers voiced concern particularly over the fact that Cobb had access to databases of personal information due to his job as a cold-caller.
The demo instead focused on bringing awareness about Cobb to the downtown neighbourhood in which he lived.
A small group of skinheads and allies arrived at the Vancouver Art Gallery to show that the fight against Cobb did not end with his firing. They walked from the gallery to his apartment (as posted on his website), giving out and postering hundreds of leaflets.
The group ended their action at Cobb's place of residence, where they made sure to alert neighbours of his presence in the area.

Not in Pender Lodge anymore
Seems Craig Cobb is not living in Pender Lodge anymore. Tonight, after the rally this AM, there is a sign on the office window saying he's not living there anymore.
Where is he now?
Mistake
I think it was an error to release Cobb's place of address. If he has, as has been suggested, moved as a result of the coverage, then we're back to square one in terms of tracking him.
When people find out where he is again, don't publish it. This way it will be easier to take action (legal action, by the way).

I don't like Craig Cobb but I would never harass him personally. What you guys are doing is subhuman. No matter what a person says according to the constitution they have the right to say it without being harassed for it, hunting people for radical ideas is a mass man ideology and has seriously denigrated the West to a rubbish dump that is scared to say no to any beggar or put forward any effort to stop crime, corruption and disease for the sake of "political correctness". Congratulations, scum bags, you have contradicted the principals free society stands on, you are no better than muslims.
