Confederate rally tests diminished kkk

Whites were also hanged, or did you forget about that?

They actually make up 26% of all terrorist acts in the US.

 

Not sure where you're getting your info, but left-wing extremist groups are responsible for 0% of terrorist acts (or deaths) since Reagan.

But I'll give you a chance to name a left-wing group that is responsible for a terrorist act, let alone a death in America.

 

I consider Al Qaeda left wing. They blindly cling to their ideology as well.

That is because Stalin was efficient in killing anyone who spoke against him.

 

Are left-wing hate groups dangerous too?

 

Actually they were and arw all about racism and anti-semitism/anti-Israel and anti-big business/pro-union get the rich guys and support the working man things.

 

The Loyal White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan were only acknowledging the flag's place in history - their own as well as that of Dylann Roof.

​

 

June 2006: The Animal Liberation Front targets UCLA professor Lynn Fairbanks with a firebomb due to her research on animals. The bomb was placed on the doorstep of a house occupied by her neighbor and a tenant. According to the FBI, the device was lit but failed to ignite and was powerful enough to have killed the occupants.

And a litany of other eco-terrorism.

 

So 300 showed up to support the flag, not KKK members that's how many showed up to support the flag.

Versus 400 on the otherwise who proceeded to attack those supporting the flags steal their property and burn it.

So two points. The KKK in a state claimed to have one of the largest more active groups surrounded by other Southern states and that is all they could muster.

It was the black side that engaged in violence and criminality.

 

So just because some nut case holds an object it represents whatever you choose to assign to it? Oh well, how long before the American flag is labelled a symbol of "racism":



The lefties are resorting to lies and deception.

 

No, not unless the symbol by repeated appropriation is thereby rendered noxious to the the public and their elected representatives that determine its propriety.



.

 

Well I will take that as a "yes" from you. The KKK uses the American flag as much if not more that the Confederate flag. Many things have been hijacked by those who are haters. And I guess since we have had terrorist attacks in the country you are ready to ban Islam.

 

Are you unfamiliar with the concept of similies?

What's pathetic is the "stormfronters" and other racists and bigots constantly try to hide the fact that they are exactly that. Apparently they don't have the courage of their convictions attempting to window dress them while projecting their bigotry on the people who call them out.

Well, I readily admit to my bigotry of bigots and I am not at all afraid to call the Proverbial "spade a spade". (ironic humor intended).

There is zero evidence of that outside of Progressive propaganda.[/QUOTE]

No what is pathetic is the Progressive witch hunt labeling anyone that disagrees with them as "Racist"... Even you are better then this.

 

If you need to misconstrue my "No" as a "Yes" I suppose you must.

As I noted, any symbol that is rendered sufficiently repugnant through usage is an inappropriate one to persist in displaying on the public's behalf.

If you find the flag of the United States to be objectionable because someone with noxious agenda employed it, it is your right to petition your elected leaders to abandon it as a unifying symbol. If enough Americans agree with you, the people's will shall prevail.

I don't call everyone who disagrees with me a racist.
There has to be a reason for me calling them a racist and that reason is ALWAYS to be found in their own words and expressed attitudes.

Adult discussions about race that include recognition that anecdotes, generalizations, misrepresentations and lies do not actually substantiate one's personal perspective, but merely reinforce them, do no result in me calling those that disagree with me racists or bigots.

 

Unfortunately, that'll never happen. Folks on the right are too busy whining about how Islamic folks should deal with Islamic extremists, black people should do something about their neighborhoods, etc to spend time fixing their own internal issues.

Hypocrisy, after all, appears to be a conservative trait.

 

I read that the KKK group was out of Michigan and the black group was from Florida.

I can't figure out why South Carolina gave these 2 groups permits in the first place ....... and at the same place with overlapping times.

Seems almost like someone was trying for more headlines.

 

If there's a "litany of other eco-terrorism", you might want to build a stronger case than a single incident of a single residential address being threatened by an explosive device that never detonated... Just sayin'

Given that this earth-shaking event happened just over 9 years ago, would you like me to list some of the right-wing arsons/bombings from that timeframe, just for comparison?

 

I think the KKK has lost it's luster to the ignorant white racists. I believe they're joining other groups. I believe they said there was an upswing in the recruitment into white supremacist groups since Obama got elected. I know there has been an upswing in far right terrorism and membership in militia type groups. Law enforcement is seeing a lot more threats from the right wing these days.

 

I take issue with that statement. The vast majority of blacks are good, law abiding people. They go to work or get their pensions and you don't hear a peep about these people on the news. Only the maybe 2% that are violent criminals seem to define what a lot of ignorant people think about blacks in America. Why are people always saying that it's the responsibility of the blacks to solve the criminal issue? In America whites have a bad violent crime rate in many areas. In some white neighborhoods you see a bad meth problem along with violent crime but you don't hear anyone complaining about whites cleaning up their bad neighborhoods. Whites have like 4000 white on white murders each year and that is second only to blacks. This white murder rate is bad but you don't hear anyone asking why white leaders aren't doing anything about it.

The real issue here is that people are made fools of by the press and other media. They let images on TV, stories in newspapers, Internet bloggers and radio talk show hosts dictate what they think about other races and ethnic groups.

 

Nobody watches MSNBC, or so I'm told by all loyal Fox viewers, so why would it matter? That's probably why it was essentially a non-story (I never watch MSNBC or Fox either) which I had to Google to find anything - all I got was the usual right wing sources once again trying to make a mountain out of a molehill (and failing because as a news item, it didn't amount to a bunny fart in a blizzard).

 

Somehow if the same things were said on Fox news i think you would deeply care about the comments...

 

I don't really care because all I need do is consider the source. I listen to enough minutes of right wing rant radio to get the outrage of the day and let it go at that. As I said, I don't watch Fox having found their lies by omission far from "balanced" reporting. It's worse than reading Pravda back in the day.

 

Yet again you miss the point....

 

Thanks for exposing the hypocrisy in writing. If you really were against racists you would be calling them all out. One last chance to admit the msnbc people made racist comments? Agree? Please say something other than yes to prove me correct.
