| Re: News thread I'm in total agreement. When the Klan make it out into public around here, they are typically ignored. But that's not always so easy though. The nazis were stoking the fires since the last rally in May (?). They bought and paid for the attention they got.

The point is that these knuckleheads are feeling a little bolder in the last year or so. I actually don't put this on the orange oaf. I put it in the lap of Stephen Bannon. These are his people. | |

Welp. It only took 48 hours and now pretty much every liberal in America is really scared of the nazis making a come back. Demonstrations of solidarity against nazis are the best medicine against the fear. |

I don't care what your stance is on the Confederate statues, but there is a process to get them removed. When citizens pull them down it is felony vandalism or destruction of government property. These people should be arrested. They are breaking the law. And the way they treat the statue afterwards shows that these people are mentally ill. These are the people I fear and why I support the right to own guns. |

Hear about the Panda shooting? Yeah, the thing walks into a bar, orders a burger and a beer. Finishes em. Pulls out a gun and open fires all over the place then takes off. Guy asks the bartender WTF was that? Bartender says, that's what pandas do. Don't believe me, go look it up on the internet. Guy looks it up and there it says, pandas eat shoots and leaves. Better told than typed because of a missing comma at the end there. |

Actually, the tax that they're so upset about was enacted before Lincoln was even sworn in as Pres. And it wasn't a general tax, it was a tariff on imports. Some of the states had already seceded before it was even enacted. Here's an excerpt from Texas' letter, dated March 1st 1845, 16 whole years before the war started... In all the non-slave-holding States, in violation of that good faith and comity which should exist between entirely distinct nations, the people have formed themselves into a great sectional party, now strong enough in numbers to control the affairs of each of those States, based upon the unnatural feeling of hostility to these Southern States and their beneficent and patriarchal system of African slavery, proclaiming the debasing doctrine of the equality of all men, irrespective of race or color--a doctrine at war with nature, in opposition to the experience of mankind, and in violation of the plainest revelations of the Divine Law. They demand the abolition of negro slavery throughout the confederacy, the recognition of political equality between the white and the negro races, and avow their determination to press on their crusade against us, so long as a negro slave remains in these States. |
