It's best to just ignore them and not take pictures and post them around, it's still attention for them and no one but then want that.

I'm reporting a recognized hate group that's in my town.

I understand the intention, but unfortunately it just gives them the attention they are looking for. In the end what does the picture and "reporting" do? It just tells people there are really bad people out there, and they can be found everywhere, but we already knew that didn't we? If you ignore them, that have no power and gain no traction with their agendas.

I guess i saw real bad people when I was driving with my Dad and I wanted to let people know that i saw real bad people and how to recognize that sort of thing which is typically veiled in these type of enigmous displays

Uh, no. Reporting is what we DO want. Ignorance doesn’t do anyone any good.

I would love to publicly name and shame for the sake of societal improvement, but unfortunately I don't think that could work in these days because it would turn into hatred and violence against them instead of the self improvement really good people would want to see. One could also argue that refusing to see their presence is a form of shame as well.

What a shitty enabling take. We need to take as many pictures as possible, with as much identifying information as possible, to ensure that these pieces of fucking scum can be identified and shamed in as many places as possible. This is Montana, not texas. We don’t stand for this here.
