Well what do you expect from a bunch of Nth generation, incest lovin', Ozark mountain Hillbillies A.K.A the KKK. Every time I hear or see something associated with the KKK I get a mental image of those two morons from the Bugs Bunny cartoon hitting each other with the frying pan because they do whatever the fiddler says ;)

<< Hmmmm, hatred towards a group of people (kkk) without complete knowledge of them. Isn't that the definitian of Bigotry? >>


Way back when, my family lived in a nice part of Atlanta, Georgia in the mid 60s. They bought a house across the street from a park (back before drug dealers discovered them) so us kiddies had a place to play close by. They were a little shocked when they found out that was the favorite monthly gathering point for the local Klan chapter. So once a month they were treated to some right nice church hymns accompanied by some ?mood lighting? when the sun went down. That was when the A-Hole with the bullhorn would start up; great person this, jew that. My parents were less than impressed. There are many beautiful parts of Southern culture, but that is not one of them.

Huh? I don't see how it is bigotry to hold disdain for a group oriented around white supremacy without "complete knowledge of them." They, not their detractors, are the ones who created their agenda, and it seems more than fair to judge them based on their commonly-held views. Black people, for example, have no choice in whether or not they are black, and have wildly disparate lifestyles, opinions, educational backgrounds, and values that transcend their race; as such, each deserves to be judged on his or her own merits. Klansmen are united by their hatred of others, and I don't need to sit down to tea with each one to know what I think of them as a whole.

I agree with you, Don_Vito, its a choice, and it is comparing apples to oranges.

I don't respect the KKK because of thier beliefs. I, like so many others, am disgusted by the propaganda. This is not a trait they are born with, they choose to hate. Nobody chooses thier race before being born.

This is why I can justify looking down on a drug addict, and thinking i am better than he, but I wouldn't disrespect a retarded kid. See the difference?

hmm, I couldn't read anything on that site because that vile background MIDI and those blinding colours made me nauseous.

Apparently, they don't teach spelling to clan members.

People people it's alright. Anyone who actually tries to read that site will go blind. Blind KKK aren't much to worry about. ;)

Seriously though, for those that actually clicked the links, do you feel pain? The colours were bloody awful.
