It seemed like such a winner: the Proud Boys! What could be a simpler, more upbeat
name?
Unfortunately, the name has proven
to be somewhat of an albatross, as seemingly every public congregation of this
loose-knit group of curiously affected white men has ended with them getting their asses
kicked or laughed off the streets. We had the chance to catch up with one of their purported leaders, who asked that we not reveal his identity.
-- "Proud? Are
you kidding me? Who was proud after the
mess at the Latino Boys and Girls Club last week?"
-- "Why, what happened?"
-- "We just sort of sauntered over there to send a
message, that the Boys and Girls Clubs, without ethnic identifiers, worked just
fine."
-- "And?"
-- "Let's just say some of those !@#$ Mexican girls
kick really hard!"
The group formerly known as Proud Boys is actively interviewing branding consultants, insisting that candidates actually spend time with
the group before proposing a new name.
