The KKK hates us too. Not just African Americans, Native Americans, Jews, Catholics, and women. Now, the KKK would do well to remember that we hate them too, and some of us are armed. So, if their "protests" turn into actual violence against people, the community should respond in kind. ~ Adrienne
I grew up near the Gulf coast, so this doesn't really surprise me, haters gotta hate. What was more shocking was some of the article titles to the right of the main one, like "GOP lawmaker calls women "a lessor cut of meat" WTF? My mind went to images of Hannibal Lecker :icon_sad:
I've heard some hopefully wrong rumors that there might be gay lynchings if SCOTUS rules "yes". I'm afraid these guys will be at the forefront.
Like I tell everybody, if they want a war... let's not disappoint them. If the KKK want to get violent, then we shouldn't allow them push us around. For all of you down south, be safe and be ready to fight back at a moments notice.
Hmm, doesn't surprise me either. In my experience, most people in the south don't support the KKK. But there are enclaves where they just take over areas. In the 90s there was a town near us where you just didn't go driving through at night if you weren't white. I'm moving to a very rural area in east Texas for a job this year. I lived there before, but I'm not looking forward to that aspect of it.
Dawson Springs, Kentucky, houses the first or second (depending on the source) largest congregation of Klansmen -- and it's about a 40 minute drive away from me.
Because simply saying, "This is wrong," has stopped the KKK in the past? I'm usually all for the peaceful, diplomatic solution, but in cases like this, with a group that actively threatens the lives of innocent people, I can't say I'd have any sympathy.
I'm not too worried about the Klan, exactly. But there are still plenty of other various far right groups like militia and sovereign citizens etc that are like the new updated klan. Really it just takes one bigoted asshat with a violent streak anyway. America has got plenty of those.
Between you and Adrienne they'll be running for the hills! But seriously though, this doesn't surprise me one bit. Let them spread their fear and hate though. They don't intimidate me one bit.
It's all hot air. They act like big shots but reality is bigger than fact. If they even tried violence, they'd be shut down by the Us attorney general and ran off the face of the earth. It's all talk. Just like 12 year olds act in grade school. Someone needs to take a ruler to their fanny. And someone just might do exactly that.
