they claim that they aren't racists, but this will bring them out if nothing else will.

we'll see if they remember to leave their white hoods at home.

1. Yes, each person should be identified and investigated.
And exposed.

2. Didn't you hear - the people at the Glen Beck rally aren't racists either

because Ms King was invited to speak and was brave enough to do that and go against 90% of the do nothing, know nothing blacks that just voted for Obama for his skin color, not because they even knew what his policies were.

Yup. A friend's mom said exactly that this weekend while we were sitting at the pool keeping an eye on our kids. I'm glad our girls can be friends but she's a loon. She had started out asking me what I thought of the impressive turn out over last weekend in DC (apparently half her family went down). I knew it was downhill from there.

I could have said a lot to her, but didn't because our daughters were sitting right there and there were about 400 people trying to have fun at the pool in our development. I just made sure I didn't let the convo stray toward politics after that. Although when she came back to our house for a bbq, she had to sit there with a Democratic Underground bumper sticker and an Obama/Biden campaign sign staring her in the face :evilgrin:

I told her having a handful of token people of the opposite race doesn't mean they're not racist - whether black, white, pink, green, brown or purple. It just means they're trying to look good and covering their butts.

3. Maybe repost this in the Florida group?
I agree re: pics of this. Our nation and the world needs to see and know that there are those who call themselves "patriots" and "christians", yet have no concept/understanding of the First Amendment, and that there is only hate from the hearts from those who claim to love all per the christian teachings they purport to follow.

Somewhere soon, along the way things are now headed, the hate, this naked racism, has to be seen for what it is...ugly, unproductive, vile, and more destructive to our nation, to forwarding democracy here at home and abroad, than can be foretold.
Appealing to emotion is what drives politics. There has to be some of those who appear to support this outward act of hatred are ready to distance themselves should they be exposed for fostering this, and even more so, those who know it is wrong and just looking for an out as they don't really believe in hating, really do want to forward the all accepting love they have been taught through their basic belief systems, but are currently cowed by the isolation created by those they have chosen to follow.
