The III% was originally predicated on the Revolutionary War. 3% of the people actually signed up and joined the Continental army.

This really took off when former ESPN host Jemele Hill, known ant-white Kaepernick supporter and desperate to stay relevant, tweeted out that the NFL can find a job for a "known white supremacist" but not Kaepernick.

I heard he was going to cover up his tattoo, likely because his agent told him to do it before he gets cut. What a joke!

I too started reading about them after this story broke. I too haven't been able to find much about them other than their webpage or some slanderous piece about how evil they are, but no reason why.

Other than this story I'd not heard of them before.

There it is! Jemelle Hill, throwing more shit against the wall, and seeing what'll stick; isn't her 15-min up?

Wow, a black liberal race baiter masquerading as a journalist wants to paint white people in a bad light? That's just shocking. Roll Eyes

It's a shame that he's bowing to these people rather than tell them THEY are the ignorant ones and to STFU.

I have one of Dave Truong's rings. A wonderful work of art from a wonderful guy. The III-per logo is on the inside. I'm proud to consider myself a III-per.




You can't truly call yourself "peaceful" unless you are capable of great violence. If you're not capable of great violence, you're not peaceful, you're harmless.

I would have been proud to have been counted among them.

You know... back then, they were considered by the existing .gov as being seditious, traitorous and worthy of severe penalty...
how ironic, or not ... the same today.


The thing that hath been, it is that which shall be; and that which is done is that which shall be done: and there is no new thing under the sun.

What is a "Three Percenter"?

During the American Revolution, the active forces in the field against the King's tyranny never amounted to more than 3% of the colonists. They were in turn actively supported by perhaps 10% of the population. In addition to these revolutionaries were perhaps another 20% who favored their cause but did little or nothing to support it. Another one-third of the population sided with the King (by the end of the war there were actually more Americans fighting FOR the King than there were in the field against him) and the final third took no side, blew with the wind and took what came.

Fun fact: 97% of boats in the US are 25' and under. The remaining 3% are over 25', but I'm guessing that's not the 3%ers being referred to here.

Did we need a new club/clubhouse/vaguely-clever name thing to sort of describe most here?

What are we, twelve? Not enough teams out there to join already? Was "proud American" insufficient?

Maybe Glee Club was full this year? No spots on Yearbook Council, or Junior Varsity Beekeeping either?

"(kicks dust) Fine, I'll make my own.", et voila... ?

Is there at least a Secret Handshake or Passphrase? (PM me the deets)

Hell, the guy could cut his arm off now and it still wouldn't be enough. Now if it was a tat of Kaepershit.

Never heard of them before opening this thread but if that is what they are/stand for, I don't see cause for concern there.
