Good to know you speak for the KKK, what your member number?

While you're at it, tell us when the confederate flag came around and when the KKK came around.....

After all the post on this forum and all the stories discussions about the Civil War do I really have to repeat the story line?

Is it really necessary at this point for me to recite the South Carolina, Georgia, or Mississippi ordinance of secession?

Do we really need another discussion about what parts of the South were fighting for?

Do I need to draw a direct line from former confederate soldiers, statesmen leaders who established the Klan and all sorts of other groups for the specific purpose of terrorizing newly freed slaves?

Do I need to once again point out that it was this flag that was waved prolifically by white southerns, some in the Klan some not, to demonstrate their opposition to Civil Rights?

Is that really necessary at this point in the discussion?

Well, their little parade is only going to cement the image of the confederate flag being the flag of racists.

Can't wait to see this "Boyz in Hoods" parade!

It's pretty funny that we have a bunch of 21st century republicans vociferously standing up for the emblem of a bunch of 19th century democrats..............

I have read, and I can't confirm this, that many of the Klan members prefer to wear a garter belt and stockings under their sheets, and a comfortable pair of flats. Heels will kill you if it's a long rally.

Except for the part where the people who displayed it as a symbol of their society were white supremacists who owned blacks. Other than that part you conveniently whitewash out of the picture, sure.. it had nothing more to do with race.

It is remarkable, the lies you people tell yourselves. I guess if you repeat it enough times, you begin to actually believe it has something to do with reality.
