It looks like there have been high profile racists "incidents" in Arizona lately, which included "Kill Obama" signs and even an actual killing of a person walking in a park because her boyfriend was black! The KKK and neo-nazi groups are alive and well and continuing to be violent as they cling to their hatred.

"PHOENIX, AZ -- "Kill Obama" was spray painted in purple on campaign signs at two locations in Cave Creek, a suburb of Phoenix, according to the Maricopa County Sheriff's Office (MCSO)....

"The Phoenix area has had a run of high-profile racist incidents recently. Last weekend, an interracial couple was gunned down while walking through a park last weekend after a stranger with a shaved head and tattoos asked the African-American man why he was "with a white woman." Residents of Fountain Hills, another Phoenix suburb, were terrorized recently by racist vandalism that included anti-Semitic and pro-KKK imagery.

Hate is a cancer that will eat you alive and kill you slowly.
"The Clansman" and "The Birth of A Nation" contributed to cross burning as a means of intimidation against their targets.

Ku Klux Klan - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Ku Klux Klan (KKK), informally known as The Klan, is the name of several past and present hate group organizations in the United States whose avowed purpose was to protect the rights of and further the interests of white Americans by violence and intimidation

The second Klan adopted a burning Christian cross as its symbol, using it as a rallying point and a means of intimidation against their targets. No such crosses had been used by the first Klan.
The practice of cross burning had been loosely based on ancient Scottish clans' practice of burning a St. Andrew's cross (an X-shaped cross) as a beacon to muster their forces for war. In The Clansman (see above), Dixon had falsely claimed that the first Klan had used fiery crosses when rallying its men to fight against Reconstruction. Griffith brought this image to the screen in The Birth of a Nation, adding to the confusion by mistakenly portraying the burning cross as an upright Latin cross rather than the St. Andrew's cross that the Highland clans had actually used. Simmons adopted the burning Latin cross wholesale from the movie, prominently displaying it at the 1915 Stone Mountain meeting, and the incendiary symbol has been indelibly associated with the Ku Klux Klan ever since.[67]

More info on KKK cross burnings. Interesting how it "evolved" isn't it?

In America, the Burning Cross is considered one of the hallmarks of the Ku Klux Klan (KKK). Their regalia includes badges such as the Celtic Cross and St. John's Cross. As self-confessed ultra-right nationalists, they use the Burning Cross symbol to terrorise their intended victims. This is completely different from the use by ancient Scottish or Swedish clans.

Burning Cross
In 312 AD, Constantine is reputed to have seen a Fiery Cross in the sky before an important battle. (See Chi Rho Cross.)
In 1547, Scottish clansmen used the Fiery Cross (Crann Tara) as a symbol of unity and loyalty. Whenever an emergency arose, such as an attack or attempted invasion by rivals, the clan chieftain would dispatch runners carrying Fiery Crosses to assemble the warriors for the battle. The last recorded use of the Fiery Cross was during the Jacobite Rising in 1745. Swedish clansmen had a similar communications system (Buþkafle).

Burning Cross
Not realy ,
A bunch of grown men running around with their mommy's bed sheet on their backs and hideing their faces, acting like children and calling it a christian act. If thats what they call showing love in the eyes of the All Mighty, then I'd rather not be christian.

The Declaration of Independence says nothing about being owed anything!
That's right, the gov. owes us nothing. You have the right to start your own business, go to work, change jobs. You do not have the right to a FREE check. NO FREE payday. And Nobody owes you nothing.

Stop this Socialism NOW.

You keep posting this crap and I will keep debunking your point over and over.

So was the hate by the left of GW Bush racism then? Must have been.

Here is what the left did for 8 years.

To make it fair. And do not forget the thugs with nightsticks who wanted to intimidate the voting in the last election.

Black Panther Party - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

The Black Panther Party (originally the Black Panther Party for Self-Defense) was an African-American revolutionary organization established to promote Black Power, and by extension self-defense for blacks. It was active in the United States from the mid-1960s into the 1970s. The Black Panther Party achieved national and international fame through their deep involvement in the Black Power movement and in US politics of the 1960s and 70s. The Black Power movement is considered to be one of the most significant social, political and cultural movements in US history. "The movement [had] provocative rhetoric, militant posture, and cultural and political flourishes permanently altered the contours of American Identity."[1]


So being dressed up in military garb pretending like you are a military person is just as bad as someone dressing up in any sheet.

Fact is anyone who dresses in a military outfits should be arrested just like anyone who dresses and acts like a policeman would.

The Black Panthers ultimately condemned black nationalism as "black racism". They became more focused on socialism without racial exclusivity.[8]

What's to debunk in Austin's post? Are you denying the reality of the articles she posted?

Do you consider news reporting "crap"?

No matter how many photos of black people carrying signs of GWB, you simply have no credibility when you try to say that people disliked GWB because of racism. You're just not credible on that point.

Please explain to us exactly what you think was "crap" about the news reports of signs saying "Kill Obama" and the killing of the white woman because she was with a black man.
