(CNN) –“All we wanna do is adopt a highway,” said April Chambers, secretary of the North Georgia chapter of the Ku Klux Klan. “We're not doing it for publicity. We're doing it to keep the mountains beautiful. People throwing trash out on the side of the road ... that ain't right."
For many Americans, the Ku Klux Klan has been a symbol for terrorism, racism and evil in America, synonymous with burning crosses, lynchings and hooded men.
Even today, the name evokes vociferous discussion about the rights of a local group to adopt a highway in North Georgia, which was recently denied.
Overheard on CNN.com: Reader 'feeling a bit dirty' for agreeing with KKK on litter pickup
But is the latest effort to adopt a highway an introduction of a new era of a kinder, gentler Klan or merely an effort to gain attention? After more than a century and a half, what is the Ku Klux Klan today?
"We're not racists," Chambers told CNN Monday. "We just want to be with white people. If that's a crime, then I don't know. It's all right to be black and Latino and proud, but you can't be white and proud. I don't understand it."
Harley Hanson, who filed the application to adopt the highway for the International Keystone Knights Realm of Georgia, concurred: “I love my race. Does that make me wrong? I’m proud to be white,” he told the Atlanta Journal-Constitution.
Georgia official: KKK won't be allowed to 'adopt' highway
Today, when speaking to leaders of the Klan, you won't hear racial epithets or a denunciation of any ethnic groups.
"We do not hate anyone,” said Frank Ancona, the imperial wizard of the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan. “The true Ku Klux Klan is an organization that is looking out for the interests of the white race. It is a fraternal organization, and we do good works.”
Ancona's words are a contrast to criminal acts historically associated with the Klan - a divergence from intimidating images of hooded figures with lit crosses cutting through a dark night.
"We look out for the interest of our family first, I feel that other races feel the same way - it's a natural instinct, " he adds.
After all, who can argue with anyone about taking care of one's loved ones or cleaning up a national highway?
"These groups are interested in the press they know they are going to get off this – it doesn’t have anything to do with improving the world," said Mark Potok, editor in chief of the Intelligence Report, which tracks hate groups and extremists for the Southern Poverty Law Center.
Potok concludes that it is not a kinder, gentler Ku Klux Klan but merely a sign of the times.
“Even the Klan recognizes there is no way that they can recreate America as an all-white country,” he said.
The group began as a fraternal organization, founded by Confederate veterans after the Civil War. At its height, Ku Klux Klan members were politicians, advertising gurus, journalists, businessmen and women with powerful political and social influence. In the 1920s, membership swelled to 4 million to 5 million, fueled in part by the popularity of "A Birth of a Nation," a 1915 silent film that extolled the virtues of the Klan. The civil rights era witnessed a resurgence of the group, and it still exists today with 4,000 to 5,000 members nationally.
"I wonder why they characterize us as a hate group? Who do we hate?" Ancona said. "I know what the perception is; people come up to us and they hate us."
When speaking to him via phone, Ancona insists that there is a not a "rebranding" of the KKK. Instead, there is a focus on the original values of the Klan that have been distorted by "rogue" members and a mischaracterization by media.
"We are doing all we can to dispel the negative images," said Ancona. "If we find out one of our members was charged with a crime, or immoral behavior, we might give them a warning first, but we try to keep a tight eye on that. We have a thorough screening process to weed out troublemakers. I can only speak for the Traditional Knights, but none of our members are criminals."
Ancona sends out Twitter messages, has a modest following and speaks earnestly about the traditions of the Klan. He speaks with special conviction when talking about the standard by which he strives to live.
"Jesus Christ is our criteria of character. If you look at Romans 12:1-2, that is how Klans are supposed to live, that is the standard, " he explained. "We do not burn the cross, we light the cross to show that Christ is the light of the world."
When pressed for how historical killings intersect with with Christian teachings of loving one another, he answers that the criticism the group faces is similar to the contempt directed at his example.
"We do this even though we know we will be hated and scorned, we sacrifice and serve for what's right - to uphold the principle that were taught by Jesus Christ of Nazareth and ensure that we give our children and their grandchildren America we had."
An independent contractor, Ancona says he is not paid for his work leading the Midwest chapter. He does the work "because I feel that I am doing something good for my fellow man."
He believes there is nothing hateful in the Klan bylaws and contends that while the organization has had "a dark past," it is not dissimilar to that of the action of some priests actions in the Catholic Church or a producer cutting misleading clips in on a story about George Zimmerman: you don't judge the whole for a few bad parts.
"I would want people to know that we are here, and we are not to be feared. The Klan is looking out for the white race, to preserve our rights and our history. The Klan looks out for America as our forefathers did."
Mark Pitcavage, the director of investigative research for the Anti-Defamation League, characterizes Ancona's group as "sort of the big dog" of the Ku Klux Klan now.
Pitcavage is a former military historian who began researching militia minutemen and later right-wing extremism. He characterizes the Klan as "group of hard-core white supremacists that are motivated by a belief that the white race is in danger of extinction."
He says white supremacy is composed of five main movements: Neo-Nazis, traditional white supremacist groups, racist skinheads, racist prison gangs and Christian Identity, whose religious adherents believe they are descended from lost tribes of Israel.
The current Klan is not one cohesive group, and is considered one of the traditional white supremacist groups, which emerged in the the civil rights era.
"The situation that existed in the 1950s and '60s simply does not exist. The white supremacists are no longer in charge. They are now fighting for the very survival of the white race, and they have to fight to protect," said Pitcavage. "This is a fundamental difference of the Ku Klux Klan in the 1950s and today in the 21st century.”
In the past 60 years, several chapters of the Klan have made efforts to be involved in more civic-minded projects, such as adopting highways.
The Knights of the Ku Klux Klan – the Arkansas group that David Duke once led - tried doing it. There was also a group in Missouri that won a lawsuit to adopt a highway, and most recently, the North Georgia group that was denied the permit.


prove jesus christ is real (REAL NOW NOT THEN) and i will give your non profit 5 million dollars
mitt romney told all of his children they were not allowed to marry blacks...the romney family was very racist over the decades
"There is neither Jew nor Gentile, neither slave nor free, nor is there male and female, for you are all one in Christ Jesus." Galatians 3:28
If Klan members are supposed to follow the teachings of the Bible, maybe they should find another organization. All racial pride groups (KKK, Black Panthers, etc. ) do is create barriers between people where there shouldn't be any.
the bible has many many evil passages..no god would ever think of those kinda of evil things only man..jesus was a man and nothing more...no god involved in the bible whatsoever and only an idiot these days would think so..it onlt takes reading the first few pages to know its b.s.
I can't stand any member of the kkk. They are a symbol of hate. They are an uneducated group of bugs a disease upon the planet who think that what they have done in the past is ok. Well it's not, teaching a child to hate one race because they are not the same as you drives me nuts. I would never sit next to a member, have a meal with them, or have anything to do with them. They make me sick and the only reason I'm on this site is because I watched the movie Mississippi burning, so after that movie I'm shocked at how hateful one group can be. They say they have changed but can a leopard ever get rid of their spots, they can't so the kkk hasn't changed.
Does hate help at all?
Like to hate and beat straw men?
As in many so-called WN movements financing comes from CIA, FBI, ACLU, Southern Poverty Law because they need to keep the fear and hate going.
So with your hate of KKK are you really just rabidly anti-white.
How would you answer this...
ASIA FOR THE ASIANS, AFRICA FOR THE AFRICANS, WHITE COUNTRIES FOR EVERYBODY!
How is this not genocide:
White countries are being flooded by non-whites. Whites are told to be TOLERANT. Whites are forced to integrate.
With assimilation we see the extinction of one race only, the White race. Its not funny, not comedy, its white genocide.
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
I am white and I am not anti white at all..now isn't that something just because of my remark you assumed I wasn't white. Didn't know I had to include my race in with this article. I beleve in being proud of who you are and where you come from but you can do this without hurting anyone. To say that the KKK has had some great ideas would be like saying Hitler was right in killing all of the Jews. He wasn't right he was an exteme racist. Now I ask any member of the KKK what will do one day when you get to meet God and he isn't white. how will explain how your group is responsible for so much hate, how will you explain that you taugh your children to hate everything that isn't white, how will explain all the hate crimes your group has been involved in..........the answer is YOU CAN'T. They wish to be seen different well this is a pipe dream and will never happen. When I was in college I met a girl who's grandfather was a member and she was a racist still is. The KKK is poision and toxic should of never been made.
You can still be anti-white and white, it's called self hate, and under international law, destroying a race in whole or in part is genocide, so yes, they do have the right to protect it, of course, these days only non-whites are allowed to do so because of the brainwashed masses into feeling guilt for something they haven't done. Heck, the same thing is being done to the Tibet's by the Chinese, slowly being destroyed, it doesn't have to be bloody to do it.
This type of behavior is unbelieveable. We are ONE NATION under God. Dividing us by religious groups or race is radical in this day and age. When I was stationed in Louisiana in the early to mid nineties; we were warned not to go to certain areas; soldiers were found dead by white supremacists. Get over hatred. Learn to live with what is now. The facts are the facts. Only a RETARD would protect whatever race they believe they come. We are mostly Americans. Who the hell cares what the color of a person's skin is; or what religion they practice. God is our judge; NOT MAN...no matter what name you give to HIM. Get over the hate!
Antonia, one nation under god was invented as the northern war of aggression as propaganda and re-education for the children of those who had a loyalty to their own race, kindred, or locality.
It comes from Lincoln's successful communist revolution in NOrth America.
The goal is world empire and the obstacle is the White race. So White genocide is the object of those who support world empire.
Who can honestly be for White genocide? Only anti-whites.
Ironic that they're going through this "reform" at the same time that they're losing members like crazy.
As long as they're not hurting people and are obeying the law, I don't care what they do or don't believe, but I hate how much these morons who dress like clowns have damaged the image of the south.
i love how the comments on this article are like 5 times longer than the article itself
people i swear!
Sounds just like all the blacks today who work in the media. There is a war against white people. Oppose the enemy and do not turn on each other like they did in Iraq. All mass murders are caused by a cancerous parasite controlling a majority from jews in 2 European world wars to the USA being in Iraq to Israel existing in the Middle East to blacks causing the Civil War. All these wars were caused by jews and blacks or a cancerous minority being where it should not be creating hate in a country that turns on itself.

Why judge people so long in the past when there are so many things to look at today.
Most Americans today support slavery. All the foreign goods we consume are produced by modern slaves, so don't be so self righteous, brothers.

You forgot USA for the American Indians.
Amerinds in N America are very secure. Stopping mass# of non-white invaders of US secures them further. Does anyone believe that a Mexican run US govt would care at all about Amerinds in N. America? Would they honor treaties or provide the food and $s Whites do now?
Its the Whites who are currently endangered.
I notice you totally skipped over the White genocide issue, to find fault with the message.

Let's stop White genocide.
Let us not forget how much publicity the black panthers get and we see them doing nothing to stop hating and do something good for their race or others.
Agreed. Those that condemn the past need to look at their own conduct in the present.
AND the big AND is most part supporting White genocide today and justifying it in various ways.
We need to stop White genocide today and free ourselves from the anti-whites who support the end of the White race.
The United States of America is not, nor has ever been a "white" country as nonwhites were here first. Also, genocide is the systematic and FORCEFUL destruction or elimination of a specific ethnicity, race, religion, etc. The key word is FORCEFUL. If the "white" race is indeed being eliminated, it is not by force. No one is forcing whites and nonwhites to mate. That is a choice made by the individuals.
Bio-archaeology has established that Whites were in N Am 10,000 yrs or so before the Asians.
So, since your history is false, what is your purpose in expressing such anti-white feelings?
The point is we have an ongoing genocide of the White race. Pro-whites are fighting this human rights violation. You are opposing that work.
That makes you anti-white. Are you proud of that or might you want to join us in our work to stop White genocide?
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
Dogmatic assertion of an anti-white
Forcing children to another group is apart of the UN Law of prevention of genocide btw, we're forced to be diverse and have no say about it, yet they do not so much as lift a finger to make the Detroit city council more diverse, to them full color is diverse, diversity is white genocide.
What's interesting is that force is used in UN Resolution 260 with regard to children otherwise "committing" certain acts is genocide.
When anti-whites stress FORCE what they fall to admit is that coercion is force. Any fear of physical or MENTAL harm is force. Fraud used to create certain mental states goes along with coerce and force.
Fifty years of demoralization of White people has set up conditions that facility the working out of this White genocide program.
I grew up in Georgia.. My Grandfather was a 'Good ol boy' from Ceder town GA. He hung around with Herman Talmadge and a few other greats! My Grandfather was never a member of the Klan, but he had friends who were and as a little girl they were my friends also. i have loved all people with out prejudice and i have tried to raise my White sons that way.
BUT! I am sad to say that we are in trouble if we are White, male, Christian! I don't actually think we are racist,, from what I'v experienced, the black man is! We are under attack for our skin color now! They are not! I can't say i agree with the Klan on every level, but, for the first time in this country, I'm afraid for my White, male children ! We must organize with out the hate! We have been forced into this. We have a president that is very racist and now that he's in power again, the prejudice against, White, Christian, Males will worsen. I'm sad to be writing this.
I'm a brother from Miami,FL and I don't see nothing wrong with you being "white and proud".That's your prerogative and I have no argument about that not even dismissing the history of the Klan and to Blacks and Latinos as well as Whites.However not everyone isn't like that
Forrest city school district has a bus that goes to widner. About a month ago my next door nieghbor got on the bus and threatened to kill all the white kids on the bus. Every day since then his wife has been allowed to ride on the bus. You think the klan will stand up in this case? My granpa and his for fathers were all klans men. It is a travisty that even my grandpa 83 by the way has little faith that they will. They city nor the state seem very concerned, But then all the people you get to talk to are black, I know I called my self along with sevral conserned parents.
Thanks for finally talking about >A kinder, gentler Ku

Consider this:
There are things to hate more than KKK. For starters how about the anti-white program of White genocide?
Focusing on KKK is selective history. I like a true history that is balanced and not blatantly anti-white.
I grew up in winner GA and moved to VA when I was 12 I knew a few klan members they were like family to me they were hard working respectable people my dad told me that they stood for what was right if a man didn't take care of his family or abused his wife a and kids the klan would convince him to do better.ether white or.black he also told me that the klan would speak up for the little man.there is good and bad every where you look schools, government a few bad seeds can make any organization look bad.I heard that 2011 was the first timer in us history that white babies were born as an minority so I say we need the klan who else will stick up for us
You sound very intolerant. That is not the diversity way, the politically correct way.
When we have: Africa for Africans, Asia for Asians, White Countries for Everybody, what do we have overtime?
We have more and more non-whites in White countries since the right of Whites to exclusive territory is denied them.
We have fewer and fewer White people.
When we mix more non-whites and fewer Whites in the same living space, what do we get?
In time, White extinction. Its called White genocide because this does not happen by chance. It is being forced upon Whites just like a rapist does not take no for an answer.
How is this not so? How is this not White genocide?
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
Don't be ridiculous. You think Asia is only for Asians, and Africa only for Africa? and White countries for white people? First thing first, we live in a globalized world. Go to Asia, you'll see asians in Majority, go to Africa, the africans will be in the majority and in "white countries", whites are the majority. But there will always be other races! It is only natural to diverse ourselves. And if you want to actually be in a "white country", go to Europe. America was meant for the Native Americans anyway.
Actually were being taken over by Muslims -.-
This message is about White genocide.
The low world-wide White birthrate of perhaps 1.4 children per couple is in large part a result of demoralization and insecurity. When Whites once again feel in possession of their own societies and lives, births rate will go up.
Being taught since the first grade that one's own race is bad has an inevitable effect on a person's natural desire to have children, whether that connection is consciously felt or not.
If African countries suddenly had low birth rates, would you insist on flooding those African countries with non-Africans and forcing Africans to integrate with the non-Africans so as to "assimilate," i.e. intermarry and be blended out of existence?
And if any African objected to that genocide of his people, would you tell him that the genocide of his people was justified because of history, karma or choice of low birth rate?
Why are Whites only targeted for this race replacement?
Its White genocide.
You are just making a psychopaths argument in favor of White genocide, that is, that there is no White race, so the extinction of the White race by various means is not genocide. So silly for the UN to hold and write the Convention on the Prevention of Genocide. Just a bunch of deluded people I guess.

May the creator of all have mercy on us all, since I did not create my self, or you create the color that you have, then only He the creator should have a say...no KKK.
So God did not create the KKK? You speaking with and for God now? KKK could be founded in religious or other fanaticism. You have something in common with these people. you should be a little easier on them, I feel.
Always a good look! She is always an isoiiratpnn.. though I have to admit I recorded my track where I sang through my nose, before hearing Sweaters' by Laurie.. Great minds eh! lol
Do you also say no NAACP? or NO to the other seven main organizations out there? You should
Please explain to me what "THE WHITE RACE" is exactly?
Ling, are you looking for a scholarly exposition? Can you tell us what the Asian or Blacks races are? Maybe I should be responsible for figuring that out myself. You could exercise some responsibility also.

Who took the africans from africa to be slaves to America? White people blame the white people for what you call genocide of their own race. American Indians were here before white people and many other ethnic groups called the united states their home years ago. America has been diverse for a long time. Are you for real? If you are so afraid of white genocide preach to "whites" to go make more babies. I do not know what you definition of white is. I would be considered "white" but have tons of different backgrounds a little bit Russian a little bit Scottish a little bit Irish Swedish, european, probably sometime in my family history I have a asian, african, hispanic, indian family member I will never know. Are you talking about people stickly european. you are weird.
Of course having more peoples when a genocide is occurring is not the answer to genocide.
Are you trying to use history to justify White genocide today? What is your idea of justice? Punish the children for what the parents or someone elses parents are alleged to have done?
Why would you not try to stop White genocide today? Perhaps you are to be examined for your justification of White genocide.
You get the point: We see an endangered White race (not having enough babies for replacement) on top we see large #s of non-whites herded into White countries, sort of overlaying the Whites. These non-whites being highly fertile, displace Whites. its White race replacement. Its White genocide.
What part of these 2 points are you unable to grasp?
That Whites are endangered and/or they are being race replaced by non-whites without mercy by anti-whites like you who support this genocide?
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
No I'm not looking for a scholarly eposition. I think your views are the most asinine thoughts I have ever heard.
Asinine? What you mean is that you are anti-white, that you are possessed by that other anti0white side.
When you have an endangered White race and then mass#s of non-whites are forced into all White countries endangering the majority White pop, and making them persecuted minorities in their own homelands, yes, this becomes White genocide.
We are not talking about a few immigrants. Also we see racial preference shown to immigrants – its anti-white pro-white genocide behavior we see.
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
There is not one person on earth that is purely of the "white race". When you finally figure that out maybe some light will be shed for yourself. I am half white. Does that mean you disagree with the choices my parents made? That I am some kind of abomination? They blended two races together. What is so wrong with that? and FYI preach your own beliefs to your family and friends. They are the ones you need in order for you to continue your beliefs. There is nothing wrong with other races reproducing biracial children. Look down your family tree.
Diversity is the happy face word to mask the culture of White genocide. White genocide is normalized by 10s of thousands of pro-diversity ads pushed on White people from early childhood into old age.
Nobody is saying that Africa needs diversity.
Nobody is saying that Asia needs diversity.
They are already 100% diverse.
People are only telling white children in white countries that they need diversity.
White countries will be 100% diverse when there are no white people left.
Diversity is a code-word for the genocide of white people.
Every white country on earth is supposed to become multicultural and multiracial.
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
allyrunning forever, you mentioned who brought up who brought the africans over to america.That is valid, but who sold their own people out? Who knowingly sent their people of the same tribe,of the same race of the same ethnicity to a foreign country to do hard labor. The africans that did that did not stand up for their own people. The kkk stands up for its own people and yet it is hated for it. I go to a public school and they have latino club, African american club and arabic club, but not one for white people, not one for the founders of this country. That doesn't make any sense to me. I know many who were mocked for trying to make a club, and they were ridiculed and called racists but why does it not work vice-versa?
A people, in this case the White race, who are not allowed to advocate for itself as you point out, is headed for extinction.
There are systemic policies that are leading to the decline and extinction of the White race in the not so distant future.
We need to fight this White genocide:

Agreed?
I am really surprised that the kkk. However at the same time I am not. Even if everyone was the same color people would find something to hate about the somebody or people either their personalities, looks beliefs whatever. Race is not the problem its humans "sinful" nature that is. People will always treat others wrongly its sad but its true that's why this world is so full of corruption. Some people might think that they have never been racist but I bet anything that they have been mean to someone different than them.
Everyone deserves to have their own opinions and their own voice, but how is this group legally allowed to still be active? They have murdered, tortured, and tormented countless innocent people. It's not a crime to come from somewhere else or to have a different pigmentation. We are all humans, all brothers and sisters, and (Hello!) we share this planet. Oh, and I'm sorry (not sorry) the things in the Klan's past are unforgivable. A kinder, gentler klan? BS! There is no place for this hate if our species is to have any kind of productive future. Let them adopt a highway in the heart of Africa
Countless? Such violence by this group hardly compares to current black on white violence.
Let's look at a much larger issue in terms of crimes against humanity: white genocide.
When you force upon a declining white race (whites are not having enough babies to replace themselves), massive numbers of non-whites, to share the same homeland/living space, the end result is the elimination of the declining white race. Its inevitable (what will change?)

How is this not genocide?
When the R word is used, you can bet its just an attack against white people for being white and wanting to remain white. Is that not so?
The big taboo is that whites are not able to talk about what is good for whites.
And the strawman used to suppress discussion is slurring whites with labels, such as, KKK, white supremacists, nazi-who-want-to-kill-six-million-jews. Tell me this is not so.

What exactly would be horrible if the white race were in fact blended out as you say? Human beings will still exist until the Lord decides otherwise, whether they are "blended" or not. Skin color does not change or establish one human being from another. Ignorance does.
Well, the third world would be severely hurt. US exports 38% of worlds food. Probably most of the surplus food is produced by white people. since you seem to care more for non-whites than for white survival, that should give you a practical and ethical reason to help stop white genocide.
Does anyone here contribute to white race survival? What's wrong with white race survival? If not, how is that not anti-white behavior, deviant anti-white behavior? If you have any white children you love, why are you not defending them by opposing white genocide? Any white women you love? May not defending their wonderful beauty and uniqueness?
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
To anyone who really believes that the KKK are not a hate group all I have to say is that I have a bridge to sell you. Real cheap!
The problem is that who cares?? What if any race gets extinct or not? What makes you so special being a white race? IN a few thousand years, it will neither be black or white – but a brown race of human kind. It is a natural progression.
What you are saying is that you are a supporter of white genocide. Have you been so abused and dumbed down emotionally and spiritually that you actually believe in what you have said?
what has the white race done to lose its right to exist?
Could someone define "white" for me? If you are Italian, I guess you are white. What if you are from Greece, right next door to Italy? Are you white by the white-only definition? Some Greeks are pretty dark skinned. What about Turkey? It is very close to Greece. Are you still white if you are from Turkey? Which if the ex-Soviet Union countries are white, and which are consider "Arab" by the KKK?
I guess the new KKK needs to come up with a map or guide book that lets us know which "nationalities" are considered white. Truth is, over 1/2 the KKK members today probably have some non-white blood in their backgrounds. They just don't know it. The whole concept of a "pure race" is non-sense. There is no such thing.
That's funny that you mention that. They actually do have guidebooks and websites as well. Their definition of white is essentially of European descent. By that definition, I have to agree, the population of those who are strictly of European descent is thankfully reducing every year.
Maybe a better solution would be for these people of so called "pure" European descent to move to a European country..? And what gets me is they claim their mission is to stand up for the white race, yet.. immigrants, women, FREED slaves and even WHITE people were hung, murdered and beaten for not following the rules of the KKK...and now after decades of hearing nothing but bad things about them, they say, oh btw, this is our REAL mission, the ORIGINAL KKK had it ALL wrong...RIGHT, ok..whatever you say...
Have you always been antiwhite or just as a result of misspending of tax dollars on your public education?
Whites were here long before your non-white ancestors.
Its a good day to fight White genocide:
The WHITE GENOCIDE Mantra is a rebellion against the wholesale nonwhite invasion of white lands, a rebellion against the brutal attack on the political rights of white people,a rebellion against the theft of the inheritances of white people, and a rebellion against the cruel assault on the posterity of white people.
How is this not genocide:White countries flooded by non-whites.Whites are told be TOLERANT.Whites are forced to integrate.With assimilation we see the extinction of the White race.
Is there anything better to do than fight?
We all get paraniod jealousy who has more just like in the bible Kane /Abel seems like the kkk are men who can not control there emotions of violence towards people that are different .A problem that will never be solved a few years ago one of Adolf hitlers living family here in the USA a reporter found out he had Jewish blood and northen african blood DNA old fury had Jewish and African DNA .
You hit the nail on the head nikki. Great post!
Whites are not having enough babies to replace themselves. Yes or No?? Non-whites who are having lots of babies are being forced into white homelands/living space. Yes or no? Add these two statements together and what do you get? Its okay for a farmer to blend his flock as he pleases. When anti-white elites/political rulers/leaders do it, its called genocide. Whites are targeted making this a case of white genocide.
“Genocide involves the attempt to achieve the disappearance of a group by whatever means. It does not have to be violent, it could be a combination of policies that would lead to a certain group dying out.” Fraser-PM Australia ‘75-83
M Fraser-PM of Australia 1975-83
When considering the issue of white extinction, the issue of KKK seems rather minor.
Oh yeah, right! The end of the world is near. First, the NAACP supports the gay agenda and now the KKK says they do not hate anyone. Lord, take me now!
You seem to be under the impression that only white people can be racists. "Anti- racist is codeword for anti-white." How bout black people that don't like the Chinese? Anti racism isn't just limited to white people.
Nikki, what are you talking about "blacks don't like the Chinese." I have never heard that one. I tell you what if we black people start trusting the KKK we'd be fools. The KKK spells EVIL to me, I for one will never forget how the KKK tried to wipe out the black race by hanging, burning, raping them at will. Just a bunch of nasty punks hiding behind their white sheets. I guess they've dropped the sheets but, still can't be trusted!
Nobody is saying that Africa needs diversity.
Nobody is saying that Asia needs diversity.
They are already 100% diverse.
People are only telling white children in white countries that they need diversity.
White countries will be 100% diverse when there are no white people left.
Diversity is a code-word for the genocide of white people.
Its still:
Africa for Africans, Asia for Asians, White Countries for Everyone
Annihilation by Assimilation
How is this not so?
First of all, I'm black, and I don't have anything against Chinese people. I was just giving an example of a person from another race that doesn't like someone else because they are of a different race. When I used the example of what if there are some blacks out there that don't like Chinese people, I was straining the point that anti racism does not equate to hatred of white people, because white people aren't the only race of people that can be racists. I'm not saying all blacks don't like Chinese people
Do you or yours face a threat from the KKK today? Its beating a dead horse. Its about complaining about something to enhance one's victimhood. I understand that but don't like it done at the expense of another group.
The real danger today is the ongoing genocide of the white race. Anti-white bias and hatred causes danger to the white race.
whites are not having enough babies to replacement themselves in white homelands, THEN massive numbers of non-whites are pushed into these white homelands against the wishes of the whites. Integration, tolerance and assimilation are then used to blend the whites out of existence. The end result is obvious and inevitable. This is what is known as white genocide.
Well-said.
Granted, however lest we forget that the KKK also hated and acted upon that hatred toward the Jewish peoples as well? It is not BLACK/WHITE it is the hatred of race and religion that is encompassed within the ideals of the KKK
Black people, or any minority cannot be racist as they do not have a instifutional power. That is prejudice, everyone is prejudice. Next time you decide to call the kettle black, please do your research.
Since you say blacks cannot be racist, then anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white. You have just supported what is meant by the phrase, "ANTI-RACIST IS A CODEWORD FOR ANTI-WHITE."
"Everybody says the final solution to the RACE problem is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries to bring in the third world and assimilate with them.
Immigration, tolerance, and especially assimilation are being used against the white race.
All this immigration and intermarriage is for EVERY white country and ONLY white countries.
Anti-white is called anti-racist, but it leads to the disappearance of one race and only one race, the white race. The real aim of anti-racism is to wipe out the white race or make it a minority anywhere it exists.
It is genocide."
let's all join hands and sing Kumbaya.
let's all join hands and sing Kumbaya.
What you are doing simply is justifying white genocide. I am simply stating what it is. You are arguing why its not a problem and assigning blame to the victim.
What does fewer white people (they are not having babies) and highly fertile non-whites being forced into the same living space do? What is the logical result. Perhaps few can understand this. Maybe you can? What is the end result for white people? Once blended with non-whites, can it be said whites are still white? I AM CALLING THIS WHITE GENOCIDE, HOW IS IT NOT? anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
If you were an investigator and not an inquisitor, you might want to dig a little deeper into this so as to prevent a human rights abuse (white genocide) rather than justify it. Agreed?
White genocide? Are you kidding me? Shall I go and list the countless countries, peoples and societies that "the white man" has damaged and destroyed? White genocide. Gimme a break.
That Guy, you are correct. One of the things that is worse than being a racist is a racist in denial. It seems go me that the white man is always at the scene of a crime, but always says it wasn't me, wow!
In white countries when you force/coerce/ socially engineer IMMIGRATION, integration, tolerance & blending of races, in the end you have a non-white population left.just a matter of time. Its white genocide.

Another thing: What does it matter what the color of your skin is? Does it make you any better or worse than me? A person should be judged by their character, morality and personality. You can't lump people together by one over-simplified ethic characteristic. Is the proportion of white people in America decreasing in America? Yes. Does it matter? No. It doesn't matter if a certain skin color disappears from the world. What is a travesty is the fact that chivalry, compassion and simple decency are going extinct.
"A person should be judged by their character, morality and personality."
Well, what does that mean about someone who supports white genocide then? Those people are usually loyal to ideas rather than flesh and blood and hate those who value their own kind. Its bizarre for sure.

Savethechildren just one question: Are you a racists? In other words, do you believe white people are superior to blacks? I don't want your genocide ramblings, I don't want a repeat of your argument. Just straight up answer the question
I don't know. Am I? How do you judge such a thing? Is an orange superior to an apple? If you love orange juice, do you have the right to having it not mixed with apple juice? Am I a racist if I try to keep orange trees unmixed with apple trees?
I take it that you justify white genocide then.
In white countries when you force/coerce/ socially engineer IMMIGRATION, integration, tolerance & blending of races, in the end you have a non-white population left.just a matter of time. Its white genocide.

M Fraser-PM of Australia 1975-83
Would you like to minimize the strength of the argument by calling me a racist? or trying to pin that label on me or this cause?
Don't forget that right wing movements are heavily manned by govt agents. I wouldn't want to judge anything that is controlled and/or manipulated by govt forces. False flags and all that stuff. But for those who want the occasion to blame white people, KKK and others serve as a useful strawman and scapegoat.
A simple definition of genocide is: The deliberate destruction, in whole or IN PART, of an ethnic, racial, religious or national group.Genocide has also been called the attempt to disappear a people. Do we need to add anything to that?
Do you not see the disappearing of the white race? Are you looking?
Birth rate too low to replace itself. Coupled with immigrants with high birth rate. When you add those together, what do you get?
How is this not white genocide?
False. Genocide is murdering a huge number of people, actively and for one of their characteristics. Whites will survive, and what if we don't? Worst-case scenario: we hate others so much that we end up wiping them and us out at the same time. With all due respect, you are wrong.
The 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article II states:
In the present Convention, genocide means any of the following acts committed with the intent to destroy, in whole or in part, a national, ethnic, racial, or religious group as such: (a) Killing members of the group; (b) Causing serious bodily or mental harm to members of the group; (c) Deliberately inflicting on the group conditions of life calculated to bring about its physical destruction in whole or in part; (d) Imposing measures intended to prevent births within the group; (e) Forcibly transferring children of the group to another group.
By changing the meaning of GENOCIDE as set forth by The 1948 United Nations Convention on the Prevention and Punishment of the Crime of Genocide, Article II, WHITE GENOCIDE DENIERS try to deny GENOCIDE and thus become accomplices to GENOCIDE.
No matter how indignant or outraged a person acts, GENOCIDE is still GENOCIDE.
Anti-racist is a codeword for anti-white.
No ones is deliberately destroying or intentionally plotting the complete eradication of the white race on a large or systematic scale, as is the case in actual genocide.
And you are basing your opinion upon what?
Give me honest answrs: whites are not having enough babies to replace themselves, meaning fewer whites. highly fertile non-whites are being brought into white living space, meaning more non-whites in the future. Social conditions set up for whites today pushes towards assimilation. Assimilation rates are? high now. Overtime, what is the inevitable future? BE HONEST. It's white extinction. Agreed?
This is happening in all white countries. What is the likelihood this would happen in all white countries at the same time?
Unless you're suggesting that white people are being slowly sterilized without their permission, white people having low birth rates and less children sounds like a decision that those people make. So, you just pretty much said that white people are causing their own "genocide". What is your definition saying...Intent, right? Genocide is intentionally wiping out a race? So...if white people chose not to have a lot of children, thereby that causing genocide, which has to be intentional....sounds like white people are doing this on purpose. It sounds like you're your own worst enemy, then.
Its just a statement of fact. Whites are not having babies. Highly fertile non-whites are being brought into white living spaces. The end result is the blending of whites out of existence. Do you dispute that logical conclusion? Instead of being concerned for the white race, as a creation of the universe, you seem to want to justify what is happening. That is the genocide of the white race. Why is that? Are you anti-white and pro-white genocide? That's the conclusion I am making. Agreed?
maybe it is simple ? Bad economy less jobs = less children. why does everything have to have a evil undertone.
We got a bunch of those where I live. They ain't very bright.
At least they aren't carjacking anyone, raping anyone, robbing a gas station, flash-mobing, ec.
They love to sterotype oher races. They act and talk like their race is some kind of God and does no wrong. Let's keep it real.....all human beings walk evey day with good and evil inside of them. It is about making the chose to do good instead of evil. In my opinion the KKK is the epitome of what evil and vile is all about. I have nothing agains white pride, but why use the KKK to set the example of what white pride stand for?
I in no way align myself with these fools and could really care less about all this racial pride and ethnic nonsense on either side of the house whether you are white or you are a minority. In the past 20yrs of this country's history however it has become evident that being "white" is a bad thing while being loud obnoxious or aggressive about being something else is "good" and "just". I cannot understand this. Yes minorities have suffered at the hands of white peoples a long time ago. That is over now but people feel the need to continue to drudge up the past or create and ongoing idea of oppression especially young people who themselves have never suffered at the hands of violent racism nor did their parents. And before any of you go and start making claims that I am some sort of racist I would just like to say I have been happily married to a minority for over 6yrs now and I am white. Everyone needs to stop with the nonsense and come together. When people "identify" themselves as separate or "special" from all others they are the racists. When they want to have their own college, or their own magazine, or their own holiday they are the racists, minority or white.
Africa isnt trying to make itself nonblack via a policy of mass non-black immigration and assimilation
Asia isnt trying to make itself non-Asian via a policy of mass non-Asian immigration and assimilation
But EVERY white country has the policy of mass non-white immigration and
assimilation, yet no white country ever voted to become a non-white
country
Anti-whites want all white countries to be blended, brown countries: white genocide via mass non-white immigration and assimilation.
Anti-racist is a code word for anti-White.
Is there anyway to justify the current policy of white genocide effected all white countries?
one race-the human race
Human species. A specie is divided into races. That's science.
In 1970, 90% of the US was of the white race. Today closer to 65%. By about 2040 whites will be less than 50% of the US.
The definition of genocide:
The deliberate destruction, in whole or IN PART, of an ethnic, racial, religious or national group.
This is happening in all white countries and only in white countries. We see the declining populations being a result of immigration, integration and assimilation. This is forced by policy. How is this not white genocide?
you do know that america is not the native home to whites right? native Americans have been here long before white Europeans showed up. so listing statistics about America's white population percentage is pure bs, if you want race segregation go back to Europe where whites came from.
Actually race is a social construct not science.
I think you are just about the only intelligent person here.
Evil, evil group of humans.
Naw, just dumb. They think they are right, and also that the world is flat.
Are you pro-white or pro-white genocide?
Yes, anti-racist who are just covertly anti-white could be considered evil.
Because anti-white support white genocide in one way or another.
Yeah sure and I've got them some bridge property in Arizona. What a bunch of hypocritical manure!
No other groups you'v mentioned had a consistent history of killing, raping, hanging people on a tree, or dragging people behind a car. Heck, this country used to discriminate against Irish. For what? Not being white enough? Go figure.
The difference is that the NAACP, etc. don't have a history of killing people and leaders that have publically declared their hate for, and intent to wipe out, other races.
Not agreeing with the KKK here, but if you look at society today you're encouraged to be proud of who you are, everyone that is except for whites. If you're black and proud, that's awesome. If you're Hispanic and proud, that's awesome. If you're white and proud, that's racist. Whites are quickly becoming the minority in this country, and any attempt to be proud of who we are is considered offensive and racist.
I can only assume that you have mental issues because comparing 'national pride' with the KKK and its history of hate, murder and violence otherwise would simply be evil.
"What history of murder does the KKK have in YOUR LIFETIME?" I live in Georgia, dummy. I can think of at least five men killed by those people in my long lifetime, two shot down on the street and the cops refused to act because a white man killed a black one. Wow, you are really naive.
Anti-whites like the occasion of blaming whites for whatever............its a de-construction of white society and a great harvest for anti-whites, anti-white global elites, their minions and non-whites.
Its about white genocide as the predatory program aimed at whites gradually erodes the numbers of whites and increases the number of non-whites in white living space.

"Africa for Africans, Asia for Asians, White Countries for Everybody

Every white country on earth is supposed to become multicultural and multiracial. EVERY white country is expected to end its own race and end its own culture. No one asks that of ANY non-white country............."
Nothing wrong with proud of being white or any color. However, being proud of the KKK, which had an ugly and violent history, is mentally deranged and shall be treated as such.
Brekka,
For almost 400 years most whites in this country have been proud that they're superior, not proud of what they are. When exactly did that change.
How is that true? Have you done an interview with a good number of those whites to actually back that up?
Would be nice if any of the other responses addressed your question. That said, if white's had a pride day it would imply two things, first it would take away from the other groups sense of accomplishment and being special; second, it would imply that all groups are on equal footing, which weakens the arguement that minorities need special programs and treatment to accomplish those things that mainstream society considers valuable. I find it interesting of all the miniorities you don't see the Asian community need parades and pride days. They find pride in themselves and have out paced everyone in the US – kudos to them for taking on a victim mentality.
sorry for the typo. Should have been "...not taking on a victim mentality."
KKK is a strawman making it always timely to attack white people, at least those who have not embraced their own genocide.
----
We see the declining populations being a result of immigration, integration and assimilation. This is forced by policy.
don't forget the tea-party and ron paul
I would bet good money that there are plenty of KKK members who root for, attend, and help finance the Atlanta Falcons, Braves and Hawks. Aah, the irony.
What you are trying to do is justify the ongoing genocide of the white race by some ridiculous argument. You don't want to response to this observation:
"In white countries when you force/coerce/ socially engineer IMMIGRATION, integration, tolerance & blending of races, in the end you have a non-white population left.just a matter of time. Its white genocide.

How is this not genocide??"
If you are so worried about it then read up on william peirce and get up off your but and press the multiply button. Do things that will make you become better off. We need skilled tradesmen and innovative artisans. If you are in the top 10% in productivity then everything else that is being done to you doesn't matter.
What are you? You're neighborhood's local grand wizard?
You did not honestly respond to the question. Instead you attacked me personally. That is the lowest form of human discourse.
"In white countries when you force/coerce/ socially engineer IMMIGRATION, integration, tolerance & blending of races, in the end you have a non-white population left.just a matter of time. Its white genocide."
Genocide: the deliberate and systematic destruction of a racial, political, or cultural group
Deliberate: characterized by or resulting from careful and thorough consideration
characterized by awareness of the consequences
The meaning of genocide doesn't fit your description of what you perceive to be happening to the "white race". Genocide must be a conscious and willful practice of eliminating a specific race or culture. And a full acknowledgement internal or external of the consequences of doing so.
An example of this is what was done to the Jewish people in the late 1930's into the mid 1940's. That was deliberate, willful and those who perpetrated it did so with full understanding of the consequences. As far as your claim... it holds no substance. I may agree with you that your race is being unintentionally changed, but so are all races. Members of every race are now intermixing. In a few dozen generations I can imagine that there will be almost no so called "pure" races left. Which in my opinion is a VERY good thing, in fact my children are mixed race. Native American and White. Although white is a bit misleading since my wife is Irish, Italian, English, and French. In the end none of this matters because we all breath the same air and bleed the same red blood. Its time to move into the future as humanity, not stay trapped in the dark ages as clans and racial groups.
Educate yourself on genocide. See UN Resolution 260.
“Genocide involves the attempt to achieve the disappearance of a group by whatever means. It does not have to be violent, it could be a combination of policies that would lead to a certain group dying out.” Fraser-PM Australia ‘75-83
Aren't Whites being disappeared by organized govt programs in all White countries. Massive immigration, laws to integrate, coerced tolerance, social engineering efforts to increase interracial mating and offspring?
what do all these things add up to? Fewer Whites, more nonwhites, more mixed race and with time no white people.
Its White genocide.
Do you have a better description aside from denial that any of this exists?
So White genocide doesn't matter?
Aren't you justifying White genocide?
Its happening but nothing wrong with White genocide?
How you can be proud of something that isn't your achievement, that you had absolutely no influence on is beyond me. But maybe that's the point? To be proud of something that didn't require any effort of your own.
We have the NAACP, scholarships for "African Americans"' Jesse Jackson, Al Sharpeton, etc., which is acceptable. But, you name one thing that pertains to whites "only" and it is called racists. Give me a friggin break. I was born in Texas to white parents. My father is British, my mother is South African. All my Mother's family for the past 300 years was born in South Africa. Let me make mention, my mothers family is white as white can be. Does this make me African American? Um...hell no. I am white, white, white by U.S. census and any application pertaining to race. I cannot claim African American without getting some serious looks and flak. I can even trace my ancestors to the Maasai.
I think any organization or person that teaches that someone else is less then them is crazy. But I do agree, it is becoming that to be a White Christian Straight Male is almost shamefull. Were is White male months? Were is Straight month? June is GLBT month. We have hispanic and african-american appreciation months. Were is Irish appreciation month or English Appreciation month? I think all the creeds, colors, or ethnicities have a right to show their pride, but ALL. Not just "minorities." KKK though is not a "white pride" group. It is a hate everyone but white group.
You say give you a break, have a break, it is called White Privilege. You mention the U.S. census, this census was plain Racism. Understand Racism is a practice put into law against other groups. I can talk about someone all day, but until talk is put into law then that law put into practice it does not affect anyone. The founders of this country knew this all too well. Walter Ashby Plecker helped with one of the biggest racial law of all. The Racial Integrity Act. required that a racial description of every person be recorded at birth and divided society into only two classifications: white and colored (all other, essentially, which included numerous American Indians). It defined race by the "one-drop rule", defining as "colored" persons with any African or Indian ancestry. This is Racism put into law and practiced ever since this country was founded. Oh and you speak of naming one thing that pertains to whites "only” and it is called racists, well The Racial Integrity Act is just that, a racist law to protect White Privilege.
There is so much unnecessary ugliness going on in the world. We need to start treating each other with respect. We are the same species. We are brothers and sisters living on the same planet. We are in this together. Everything that separates us from each other should be reconsidered.
... Oh sorry, I misse the point of the Norse thing: that was around the time frame of 857 AD to about 911AD....
The ACLU coming to the defense of the KKK...only in America! Unbelievable!
They have before and won.
Never knew that. Thanks for the info. Any link to the case?
Nope. Hannibal was Carthaginian, which means he was descended from Phonicians (Puni to Ancient Rome – thus the Punic Wars). Also, the concepts of slavery were significantly different back then. Personally owned slaves could generally earn enough money to buy their freedom and citizenship. State owned slaves were the equivalent of prisoners with life sentences. However, some had it better than others, with literate and numerate slaves being put in charge of accounting for the state, while the illiterate were assigned grunt duties. However, unlike the idiocy of most "sword and sandal" movies, the concept of galley slaves rowing the boats did not exist until the wars between the Turks and the Venetians in the 14th Century.
But the Crips or the Bloods aren't trying to adopt a highway!
So the Midwest Chapter of Al-Qaeda is requesting to sponsor a bake sale for the local elementary school. I mean, they no longer hate Americans, they just want the West to get out of the business of regular Middle-Eastern affairs. I mean, that not wrong, right?
In other words, a terrorist organization should not be able to sponsor anything.
Amen!
My mom told me that when she was a little girl around 7 or 8 she saw a bunch of white men burn her uncle up alive in his house because they feared him. She said that he was a very large man (6.4” tall and weight around 240 lbs. he was her favorite uncle and she watched them burn him up alive because he would not bow down to them. Yet she always taught us to never hate anyone. She always said that I love everything and everybody. Thank you mom for teaching me how to love even when I am faced with unkindness, evil and spitefulness.
In my opinion hate is an emotional combination of anger and fear. These idiots arent displaying any fear. I would say their feelings are more based on self hyperpride rather than hate. Just an observation.
Then you discount the countless murders that the KKK has committed in it's existence. That is exaclty what this Adopt-a-Highway effort is attempting to do. Revise the history of the KKK as a "White Pride" group who wants to clean up the community, as opposed to the actuall murdering terrorist organization that they have always been.
He's worried about being "feared"? LOL.. he should worry more about being the laughing stock of the neighborhood.
I'm thinking that Clayton Bigsby will not approve of this...IJS
The KKK is such a discredited name and organization (for all the right reasons) that if these guys want to just hang out with their kindred racial social set and clean highways of litter on the weekend, they should just form another organization with a new completely different name or join some already existing Polish, Irish, German, Ukranian, Scottish, Anglophile, Francophile, Italian American, Hellenic, Norwegian, Swenska, Chinese, Korean, Hawaiian, or Native American association.
No such animal as a kinder, gentler KKK...
There's a difference between the Klan and the organizations you named.
Those organizations are about coming together and uplifting their communities, education etc... The Klan's about white people becoming the 'SUPERIOR' race!
Republicans, tell your followers that the robes and crosses and stuff doesn't mean anything anymore. Its over, tell them to let it go.
Although they have democratic roots, one thing people don't know is that the parties flip flopped in the 50's/60's, maybe even earlier than that. So the modern day democrats would have been Republicans in the 1860's and the other way around. KKK does have democratic roots, but if they lived today, they would be Republicans. So the democrats back in those days would have identified more with modern day Republicans, so technically, yeah, KKK members would mostly belong to the Republican party these days. Certainly after Obama's election.
They'll just get De Mint to yell 'You Lie".
Republicans? You must not realize the the KKK was founded by, has been led by and consists almost entirely of DEMOCRATS?!?!?! Check your history before you spout off about things you have no knowledge of!
It was mentioned that Missouri had to give the KKK a stretch of highway to adopt. All court appeals were exhausted the Klan was committed and the State of MO was stuck with them. They did not however have to like it. They named that interstate running through "The Rosa Parks Highway" in her lifetime too! Ha!
Not that many years ago the KKK came to our family's neighborhood at night and burned crosses and pointed out the Jewish and black families homes. Given the historical significance of those actions I took them to be direct threats to our safety and lives. I want to hear the KKK denounce killing, denounce what the KKK has always stood for, say they were terrorists and wrong and then maybe they will have a tiny shred of believability in their claim to be non-violent racists instead of violent racists. They are dinosaurs on the way out. This country's younger generation has no tolerance for bigots and racists. Go hang out with other like-minded racists. Another generation or two and you won't exist anymore and the world will be better for it. And I don't mean whites won't exist anymore but the KKK will not.
Brava!
You sound like a loyal member.
The fact is that many gangs would engage in the activities you described but you chose to mention only black gangs.
The first step in fixing a problem is recognizing it's existance. You're a racist, now go get help.
Prejudice is defined as "an unfounded hatred, fear, or mistrust of a person or group, especially one of a particular religion, ethnicity, nationality or social status."
As a person who actually grow up in Tennessee during the late 50's and early 60's. My single parent mom born and raised in South Carolina during the great depression in the late 20's. I would hear the real life stories she experienced being in a community that lived with and talk prejudice each and every day. One event in her house was when a housekeeper they had for many years was working one day in the home. My mom wanted to use the indoor bathroom to clean up. She surprisingly found the women (she described as black as night), was taking a bath in he family tube (a very white one at that). This was unheard of and forbidden at that time and place. My mom had other stories living in such a vile climate. Some were actually happy memories with black kids she played with. See children are not born prejudice, they are taught or live with examples how others are treated (or mistreated).
In these uncertain economic and socially divisive times, we adults must change our culture on person at a time. Starting with ourselves and then reaching out to others in our circle of influence.
Be Brave and of Good Courage. We are still the "United States of America". Let us prove it to this and future generations we will change.
"DO or DO NOT. There is no try." quote from Joda.
Let us unite under a banner of "Equality is the absence of prejudice."
KKK is one of Americas Oldest Terrorist Organization...I dont understand why they are still allowed to function. They should be taken apart and arrested.
As should all racial organizations and special interest groups. They only do one thing, seperate us from each other. There is definately a double standard in play. I would agree with the KKK spokesman on that topic.
Same Klan, different day. IF they truly wish to be taken seriously, IF they really mean what they say about "not hating anyone", they they would be wise to "repackage" the group and separate themselves from the HISTORY of the KKK at all costs. There is no point in trying to white wash (sorry for the pun) the KKK's torrid history. Anything else and they will be fighting an uphill battle. But seriously, can anyone imagine that someone who belongs to the KKK DOESN'T hate others? What would be the point of joining that group otherwise? I don't have any qualms about "white pride", we should be able to express ourselves as much as all other walks of life are allowed, but PEOPLE!, let's get away from the KKK stigma if any of you want to be taken seriously. I'm white and to me, the KKK is an embarrassment to my culture; like Nazis to Germany, like extremists to Islam. I would not be able to give any credence to their claims of being "kinder and gentler".
It's the robe people! That KKK robe! It's the robe that reminds everyone what they represent! The same KKK robe worn in the 1800's is still worn in 2012! That is why people have a problem with this!
Its not the robes , its the ORGANIZATION itself and what it truly stands for, the hatred of people of Ethnicity.
