Richard Spencer is probably the most famous white supremacist in America (who hasn't worked in the White House). He's made a name for himself by dressing up his views in a costume of respectability. But just because there have been some media outlets who have occasionally treated Spencer like he's a reasonable person worth being listened to, Poland, apparently isn't here for that.
Poland has banned Spencer from entering any of the 26 countries in the EU. Because of the EU's open-borders policy, one country can ban someone from entering all of the EU countries that participate in the passport-free travel zone called the Schengen Area. From the Associated Press:
Poland's state-run news agency PAP says Polish authorities banned Richard Spencer from entering 26 countries in Europe's visa-free Schengen area for five years. The news agency cited unnamed sources close to Poland's Foreign Ministry.
A source close to the Polish Foreign Ministry confirmed to the Associated Press that the ban has taken effect. He spoke on condition of anonymity because he is not authorized to speak on the ministry's behalf.
What this means is, Richard Spencer, a man who loves his European heritage so much, he has built his entire life and persona around it, will no longer be allowed to go the land of the heritage. Nope, instead, Spencer will be stuck in countries that are notable for their ethnic diversity. I think I speak for all people who enjoy seeing Richard Spencer upset when I say, "Thanks, Poland!"
