WE STAND FOR WHITE SUPREMACY. Distinction among the races is not accidental but designed. This is clearly brought out in the one book that tells authoritatively of the origin of the races. This distinction is not incidental, but is of the vastest import and indicates the wisdom of the divine mind. It is not temporary but is as abiding as the ages that have not yet ceased to roll. The supremacy of the White Race must be maintained, or be overwhelmed by the rising tide of color.

I have no love for the Republican Party, but even I'll admit they don't preach garbage like this.

The pressing question I have is what kind of candy are they giving out?

Probably some peppermints they stole from Applebees on the way out, but wouldn't it be ironic if it was watermelon Jolly Ranchers (because stereotypes)?

Well, I wasn't planning on being a racist but they totally hooked me up when I was jonesing for some Skittles...

That would arguably make them the 2nd largest racist organization in the US....after the Nation of Islam.

That is because the KKK was founded by Democrats.

I just went over to the KKK webpage. They're not about hate, they're about celebrating "heritage."

The KKK promises to "Bring a Message of Hope and Deliverance to White Christian America! A Message of Love NOT Hate!"

Attacking the KKK just shows you to be a christianaphobe.

Hitler claimed to be a Christian also.

Hitler and the KKK have nothing to do with Christianity

No, you mean "this is an example of speech you don't like, so people shouldn't be free to say it"

You either support freedom of speech, or you don't.

You clearly do not.

Harrier would be more impressed with free beer - but it still wouldn't cause him to join that pathetic organization.
