This is what emboldened white supremacists look like

[ok doser]

I just read today that a local chapter of the KKK is planning a cross burning in my area. Could be the largest gathering in years. lain:

are they strapping black people to it before lighting it on fire?


'cause otherwise, i don't see how that's racist :idunno:

I'd say that since these are protests at Confederate Monuments that are being torn down that this is what racism defeated looks like.

That's one to look at it.
Although I doubt tearing down a historical monument will have any effect of eliminating racism.
No telling how much it's gonna cost the taxpayers to have those historical monuments torn down.
A rather petty excuse to waste money, if you ask me.

I don't see them out busting windows and looting stores either.
But of course, they are not liberals.

 

[ok doser]

as long as they're not burning crosses that are on the top of black churches... :idunno:

They got all 6 members in one place at one time? Are the Clintons going?

Maybe. :idunno: The article didn't say who was going. The person who spoke to the paper didn't even give their own identity.

 

[ok doser]

do you spose they burn store bought crosses or do they make them in their garages?

You would think they get more satisfaction by buying something meaningful from Christians from a Christian book store, and other place that such things, and burn it. I could care less if he goes to Homo Depot and buys the lumber then lights it on fire.

I don't have any real reason to suspect that degree of prejudice, but I would ask you to consider seriously why a flag that flew over one of the darker practices in our nation's history represents the South to you. What is there in that symbol to like?

:yawn:

yeah, i agree, you dont owe him an explanation for what you like.

This?

Ku Klux Klan cross burning, rally scheduled in Lancaster County this weekend

The East Coast Knights of the True Invisible Empire is planning to have rally sometime this Saturday somewhere in Quarryville. The KKK chapter -- based in Rising Sun, Md. -- posted about the event on Stormfront, an online forum for white nationalists and other racial extremists.
"This is a family event," the post said, "most Klans and [white nationalists] are invited."​

Breaking from my normal course of not commenting on his posts outside of remarks aimed at or relating to me, even the dictionary Sod quoted had this as the primary: "[FONT=noto_serif_devanagari]Prejudice, discrimination, or antagonism directed against someone of a different race based on the belief that one's own race is superior."

What he quoted was the 1.1 subject to the primary.

And Websters has it: "[/FONT]a belief that race is the primary determinant of human traits and capacities and that racial differences produce an inherent superiority of a particular race."

Both of those definitions sum Spencer in a rotten nutshell.

Yeah. Racists gotta hate.

And then say something about the Clintons. lain:

And dr reminded me why it's largely a waste of time attempting to get people to think about a position they never came to by that faculty.

:yawn:

That'll do.

I never asked him anything at all. lain:

I didn't even ask you why you like the standard. I suggested that you consider why it is you feel any warm connection to the symbol for a barbaric expression of racism. I'm fairly proud of the South for any number of reasons, but find the misplaced romanticism and regard some have on that point a point of personal curiosity and more than a bit baffling. I asked, more broadly, what's to like about it?

 

[patrick jane]

About what I've come to expect from the brighter people entangled in that nonsense.


Nothing like the intellectual courage of your convictions...which both of your comments and methodologies in response to reason amply demonstrate.

I didn't ask you for an explanation of what you like that odious standard. I suggested that you consider why it is you feel any warm connection to the symbol for a barbaric expression of racism.
