Jake Farmer
Jake Farmer is a violent, racist, and particularly anti-semitic member of the Proud Boys who lives in the Vancouver, WA area. Farmer acts as the leader of the Vancouver regional chapter. In keeping with the Proud Boy custom of virulent misogyny and flexible moral standards, Farmer, like Robert Zerfing, has been sued for child support by a former partner. Farmer’s hobby of traveling from Vancouver to Portland to incite violence may precede Joey Gibson’s repetitious cycle of hate rallies by at least six months; on July 4, 2016 he traveled to Portland to attack anyone he felt was disrespecting the U.S. flag.
Jake Farmer traveled to Portland to assault people on July 4, 2016 along with fellow Vancouver residents Joseph Bomers and Taylor A Ray-Jones, both of whom would later also join the Proud Boys hate group. Lauren Barrett, a Proud Boys affiliate who, along with Proud Boy Rob Cantrall, recently threatened to burn down a bookstore in Berkeley CA, also chimes in with her approval.
Farmer began to follow Joey Gibson in June of 2017, accompanying him to Olympia, WA to harass students at Evergreen State College while wearing Proud Boy colors. Like many other members of the Proud Boys hate group, Farmer continues to attend Joey Gibson’s bigoted and violent rallies, but distinguishes himself by forgoing the Proud Boys’ usual dog-whistle vocabulary in favor of overt and extreme expressions of racism, homophobia, misogyny, and anti-semitism.

Jake Farmer rides through Portland in the back of Proud Boy Donovon Flippo’s truck at an aborted Patriot Prayer rally on September 10, 2017. Joey Gibson didn’t show up because of massive community opposition to his facilitation of Nazi organizing and murders.

Also pictured are Kerry Hudson, white nationalist Allen Pucket, Quincy Anatello, James Johnson, Aaron Williamson, David Julian, Robert Zerfing, Joey Gibson, David Machado, Travis Nugent, Russell Schultz, Derrick Lancaster, Cameron Heugly, Mark Callahan, and Ian Kramer.

_Proud Boy Jake Farmer apparently believes that an obviously-fake antifa flyer is real. He seizes on this opportunity to act righteously indignant and victimized, and his performances elicits responses from his fellow Patriot Prayer followers: Proud Boy Jason James repeatedly fantasizes about shooting and killing anti-fascist activists who oppose the Nazis he rallies with; far-right YouTube bigot Leo Stratton pretends he is victimized by the fake flyer; Washington state Proud Boy and fantasy-caricature-artist Naphtali Moore spouts a homophobic slur while referencing the neo-Nazi slogan known as “the 14 words”; Proud Boy Russell Schultz celebrates fascist dictator Augusto Pinochet’s murder of political dissidents and displays the logo of the neo-Nazi organization Anticom; and violent Portland Proud Boy Jacob “JD” Stockton, also apparently fooled by the clearly-fake flyer, uses the alt-right epithet “cuck.”_
Jake Farmer continues to believe the far-right’s idiotic conspiracy theories even as he himself administers a fake antifa page likely to fool a number of his extremely gullible friends.
_Jake Farmer brings his infant child to an “It’s Okay To Be white” Nazi propaganda rally in Vancouver WA on November 25, 2017. This event was organized by Morgan Brandfors in collaboration with members of the PDX Stormers neo-Nazi organization. Joey Gibson also brought his young son to this Nazi propaganda rally, and was photographed chatting with neo-Nazis Alexander Becker, Raul Gonzalez, and neo-Nazi pedophile Jarl Rockhill while his young son stood a few feet behind him next to passing traffic._

Despite being linked to the killings of many people, Jake Farmer pretends that Nazi organizing is not a threat; and that those who oppose Nazi organizing, are in fact the real threat.
Despite Patriot Prayer having repeatedly attempted to distance itself from the alt-right, the group’s followers and enforcers, such as Jake Farmer, retain their alt-right allegiances and actively work to promote Joey Gibson’s events and brand among racists and neo-Nazis.
Jake Farmer is a virulent anti-semite.
Jake Farmer calls a service industry worker who was harassed and threatened by members of the Proud Boys hate group a misogynist slur.

Nick Boling expresses a casual derision of women consistent with the unsophisticated misogyny of the Proud Boys hate group.

_Nick Boling attended Patriot Prayer’s June 9th, 2018 anti-abortion rally at a Planned Parenthood in Kent WA.

Travis Taylor
Travis Taylor is a relatively recent convert to the Proud Boys hate group. He attended a couple of their “flag wave” events on freeway overpasses, and Joey Gibson’s violent June 3rd, 2018 rally in downtown Portland. On June 30th, 2018 he attempted to intimidate people by yelling in their faces but quickly ran to hide behind police.
Travis Taylor attends Joey Gibson’s June 3, 2018 rally in downtown Portland with violent white nationalist hate preacher Allen Pucket, Pucket’s new intern Levi Cross, hate preacher Quincy Anatello, and Proud Boy Daniel Garris.
Travis Taylor at Joey Gibson’s June 3, 2018 rally with fellow Proud Boys Travis Nugent, Donovon Flippo, and Tiny Toese; white nationalist hate preacher Allen Pucket and his toady Levi Cross; hate preacher Quincy Anatello; Patriot Prayer founder, grifter, and pretend senate candidate Joey Gibson; racist homophobe Edie Dixon; and bigoted former-martial-arts-instructor Ian Kramer.
Travis Taylor yells in a Portlander’s face on June 3, 2018 at Joey Gibson’s violent downtown rally. Patriot Prayer follower Ian Kramer had just assaulted a journalist, and the Portlander apparently intervened to de-escalate before Travis Taylor embarrassingly puffed his chest out and started hollering “Stand down” against the Portlander and the journalist who had been assaulted.
A bizarre post on Facebook in which Taylor fetishizes and demeans an Asian man in some sort of an attempt at humor.
Taylor shares a racist, misogynist meme that both insinuates surivors of sexual abuse and torture by ISIS are animals, and traffics in a racist charactarization of Middle Eastern men.
Taylor approves of violent racist attorney Jason Van Dyke’s letter concerning the Pacific Northwest Proud Boys. Apart from serving as the Proud Boys’s legal council, Jason Van Dyke is best known for making gruesomely racist death threats on Twitter and posting about his romantic failures on the neo-Nazi website Stormfront.

Mark Rupprecht
Kent, WA resident Mark Rupprecht attempts to present himself as a “respectable” family man, but has been deeply involved with fascist Alt-Right organizing for a good amount of time.
Mark Rupprecht poses with racist rich guy Gavin McInnes and fellow member of the Proud Boys hate group Anthony Edward Bell.
Mark Rupprecht was in contact with a Seattle-based white nationalist who goes by the name “Rosario Sicario” when plans were being made around forming a regional chapter of the violent alt-right FOAK organization along with fascist Austin Gillespie, aka Augustus Invictus.
Mark Rupprecht and fellow member of the Proud Boys hate group Ethan Nordean pose with Morgan Hutchins, who is also friends with Atomwaffen Division neo-Nazi Wade Mendisabal.
_Rupprecht makes use of “fash wave” to inveigh against degeneracy. Fash wave is an aesthetic developed by internet Nazis to make their hateful rhetoric seem cool.
Rupprecht takes a selfie at the women’s march in Seattle, WA in January of 2018. Patriot Prayer and their hate preacher friends stormed the march in order to yell misogynist abuse at participants.
Rupprecht nods along to Joey Gibsons platitudes with white nationalists Jake Von Ott, white nationalist hate preacher Allen Pucket, and sex offender Deme Cooper.
In October of 2017, Rupprecht almost hit a stopped car at 40 mph while driving drunk. While we don’t like to mock individuals’ issues with drugs or alcohol, this casual disregard for human life is endemic to the Proud Boys’ activities both in daily life and as a group. That Rupprecht refused to comply with a sobriety test, and yet at the end still managed to thank the officer “for his service” when he was picked up from the police station by fellow Proud Boy Ethan Nordean, is perhaps a perfect example of the combination of nationalist fervor and violence that makes the Proud Boys the danger they are.
