Ku Klux Klan Coming to Midland Public Television

"The Klan," a video news program distributed by the Ku Klux Klan will be airing on MCTV in Midland, TX. The first airing of the program will be on Saturday, October 22nd at 11:30 pm.

(They should have Bush as its first 'star.' Ok, I see a three options here: disabling their satellite dish, taking switcher black (or, programming an alternate source into the automation) in Master Control, or suppressing the signal in Transmission.)

1. So, hate speech becomes free speech.

Video news? How about a recruiting video.

5. Yes, for we all must tolerate the views of others, civil rights be damned.

2. I don't get it. nt

3. I am by no means defending this speech. The Christian Taliban has

numerous shows on all week and I consider that hate speech.

12. As much as I'd like to blame it on TX

this is happening in my own fucked up state. It's Midland, MI.

13. We have no choice but to tolerate it....

freedom of speech must continue, even with scum like this.

17. True

"freedom of speech must continue, even with scum like this."

True. However, a black group with the kind of history that the Klan has would never be allowed on television and no one would be talking about freedom of speech. Some excuse would be found to keep them off the air.

14. Police knew gangs would target Nazi march

Sunday, October 16, 2005; Posted: 4:17 p.m. EDT (20:17 GMT)

TOLEDO, Ohio (AP) -- Police began receiving word midweek that gangs were going to descend on a neighborhood where a riot erupted over a planned march by a white supremacist group, but the resulting disturbance was worse than expected, the police chief said Sunday.

The riot broke out Saturday when protesters confronted members of the National Socialist Movement who had gathered at a city park.

Rioters threw baseball-sized rocks at police, vandalized vehicles and stores, and set fire to a neighborhood bar, authorities said. More than 100 people were arrested and one officer was seriously injured. <snip>
