  • CF has always been a site that welcomes people from different backgrounds and beliefs to participate in discussion and even debate. That is the nature of its ministry. In view of recent events emotions are running very high. We need to remind people of some basic principles in debating on this site. We need to be civil when we express differences in opinion. No personal attacks. Avoid you, your statements. Don't characterize an entire political party with comparisons to Fascism or Communism or other extreme movements that committed atrocities. CF is not the place for broad brush or blanket statements about groups and political parties. Put the broad brushes and blankets away when you come to CF, better yet, put them in the incinerator. Debate had no place for them. We need to remember that people that commit acts of violence represent themselves or a small extreme faction.

Fury and disbelief as Alabama newspaper editor Goodloe Sutton calls for Ku Klux Klan to ride again and start lynching

I don't know if this is racist, white nationalist, or just weird rhetoric. He seems to be advocating some kind of class warfare, either way, it looks like he is out of the News business.

The KKK is being used as a psychological prop to allude to the time when the South (i.e. "real patriots") was afforded sovereignty from the "North". The ideology has shifted from direction to class - using the KKK to trigger the emotion needed to make people fall for the same claptrap of which the author accuses the "socialist communists."

It's ignorant and bigoted; the argument is similar to the one given to blacks about how the democratic party were their enemies in a time they don't even acknowledge.
