Well, here we are. You can't stop now. The unthinkable has been broached so you have nowhere else to go. Just keep digging. Now we're at the point where the Klan is just a bunch of good ol' boys exercising their first amendment rights. Bring the family! Bring the kids!* There'll be face painting and a jumping castle!

*Whites only, please.
I never said they're "good ol' boys", I'm just going by the facts that there isn’t a lot physical harm being done by the group these days, and that they seem to have shifted towards being a protest group, at least by the information I'm finding on the internet.

...Now compare that with the Crips, and see how many murders they've committed recently. You'll see an obvious imbalance in comparison.

Facts are facts!

Ok lets say i am a white photographer, who has a photography service photographing people.

Now i would not photograph two men or women who are together as a couple dating or married.

That does not mean i hate these people, that means i just do not want to see that and photograph these people.

I have the right to decide what i want to look at and to not look at.

I am not a racist. But to say people do not have the right to be so is as ignorant as being racist.
That's the opposite to being correct.

Ok looks like it is white pepole have segregated, themselves from others and liberals are upset about this. Really is there anymore to the story than this.
The good thing is that it keeps many of the local racists and Hitler enthusiasts out of circulation. I just hope a few years down the road they don't pull a Gilead.

Well no. They are still out there. It is just that perhaps they will be less militant since college campuses will hopefully curb them.

I don't think cross burning has anything to do with Christianity. Rather, it seems to be an ancient Gaelic tradition.

In Scotland, the fiery cross, known as the crann-tara, was used as a declaration of war.[3] The sight of it commanded all clan members to rally to the defence of the area. On other occasions, a small burning cross would be carried from town to town. During the War of 1812, burning crosses were used to mobilize the Canadian Militia's Glengarry Light Infantry when American forces invaded Canada

That's the opposite to being correct.

Also not sure anyone has said someone doesn't have the "right" to be racist. I mean, of course people have the right to be disgusting goblin creatures (aka racists), but what no one has a right to is the right to be free from scrutiny, free from criticism, or free from being called a disgusting goblin creature.

Someone has the right to be a racist.
And I have the right to call them a disgusting goblin creature, that their ideas are evil, poisonous, and indefensible, and that they are garbage people.

"You have to tolerate my bigotry" is a stupid argument. Because no I don't. I am under no obligation to tolerate the intolerable.

And that's before even getting into a serious conversation about the paradox of tolerance.

Really? So a person that has been ran down by a particular race of people most of their life doesn’t have the right to be prejudice against said race? Please…..
