    WMBD/WYZZ - Ollie Nanyes is an internet blogger.

    Through that blog he found himself in touch with, apparently, neo-nazis.

    It all started with a small post.

    "I said was one line, that Leonard Pitts tells racists to buzz off."

    In other words, he posted a syndicated columnist's article that said blacks were not oppressing white people.

    That column followed the arrest of a black man in the killing of a white couple in Tennessee.

    Nanyes wanted people's thoughts, but got more than he bargained for.

    "Someone has a small Nazi group in Virginia who posted a response."

    A response that felt threatening, so Nanyes called the FBI. That call angered a Neo-Nazi living in Virginia.

    "He called me up and accused me of starting a campaign of trying to get the FBI to arrest him."

    Flyers were thrown in sandwich bags with rocks at neighbors' doors, spreading a message of hate.

    "Accused me of being a communist, hating white people, approving of rape, to stand up to threats like me, the neighbors ought to join their party."

    Nanyes says the local Neo-Nazis actually are misguided teenagers--graduates heading to their first year of college.
