Its interesting that Rand Paul’s enthusiastic supporters are gaining some attention after one of them was caught on camera stepping on a woman’s head. Still Rand Paul has had worse supporters than Tim Proffit. Several prominent Rand Paul supporters have ties to the white supremacist movement, conspiracy theorists, and militias. Here are a few of them.

Chis Hightower was Rand Paul’s campaign spokesman and former member of the death rock group, Commander. His friend decided to leave Happy N-Word Day message with a picture of a Black man being lynched on Martin Luther King Day and Hightower left it up there until he shut his page down once a blog found out about it. He also wrote about how Black people had KKK radar and could  sniff him out due to his Napalm Death Hoodie.

4. Virginia Abernethy

Virginia Abernethy is one of several white supremacists who have donated to Rand Paul’s campaign.
