King actively supported the Irish republican movement in the 1980s, and frequently traveled to Northern Ireland to meet with senior members of the Provisional Irish Republican Army, many of whom he counted as friends.[12][24] King compared Sinn Féin leader Gerry Adams to George Washington and asserted that the "British government is a murder machine",[25] but he did not meet Gerry Adams until 1984, four years after his open support for the IRA began.[26]

He became involved with NORAID, an organization that the British, Irish and U.S. governments had accused of financing IRA activities and providing them with weapons.[12][27][28][29] Regarding the 30 years of violence during which the IRA killed over 1,700 people, including over 600 civilians, King said, "If civilians are killed in an attack on a military installation, it is certainly regrettable, but I will not morally blame the IRA for it".[30] He also called the IRA "the legitimate voice of occupied Ireland."[31] This was despite the death of American Kenneth Salvesen, and the wounding of another, Mark McDonald, in the 1983 IRA Harrods bombing of December 1983 which resulted in six deaths and ninety injuries.

Yeah, but here's the weird part. All of these National Socialist Workers are in the Tea Party. So if the Nazis are joining, doesn't that make your organization have Nazis?
