Looking at the boards here (and for the last several months), 1 in every 4 threads seem to be asking or presenting some 'anti black' or 'anti-immigrant/anti mexican question (ex-what do you think of the bell curve...are blacks bad tippers...why black parents are inferior...why you shouldnt support interracial marriage..) OR anti-obama comments (do you regret voting for obama....obamas taxing me...obama wants illegals to take over..etc).
The trend is not limited to this forum. Its all over the internet. When Obama was elected, White Nationalist sites were shut down with people seeking to join. There have been more threats to this president than to any since Kennedy. Pro-Christian advocates, Extremists and Conservatives are on TV every day asking america to revolt, to 'lone wolf', and every month there are new arrests for some extremists trying.
Things are changing, and the 'old guard' does not like that. Black president, hispanic female supreme court member, growing Hispanic population, rising black middle class, increasing in pro-white hate crimes, increasing in interracial marriages...all things which the radical right abhors. And you dont have to look on this sites posts to be able to tell.
If this were 3 years ago, and we were all talking about the crazy left making threats against people, bringing guns to rallies, attacking demographics who didnt agree with them and essentially flooding the airwaves with reasons why everyone else should hate the other side and all groups affiliated with them, I would be first in line making this same comment. We all remember the anti-bush whacky antics from the left, but for whatever reason, they did not seem as violent and aggressive as they are here. Annoying, yes, but no one was advocating assassinations, killing droves of nonwhites or jews or muslims, or touting racial superiority on a daily basis, and somehow tying that claim to 'capitolism' (which makes no sense whatsoever).
Now, we all know about trolls. Its HIGHLY likely that at least a few of the 'hate-flooders' online are actually the same person with different handles. Such is the price of having free registration. But the underlying theme shows a trend.
IS the radical right wing becoming more than just annoying, to the point of being DANGEROUS? And if so, what precautions should everyone else take not to be victimized or intimidated by such people?
I suppose if one makes a concerted effort to pick out certain remarks, you could find enough posts to support any slanted view.
If you're particularly sensitive to a subject, it would be even easier.
I see alot of "right-wing" bashing, Christian bashing, etc...
I would like to point out that, just because he is a "black" (more white than black, actually) man, an Obama thread isn't necessarily a 'racial' conversation.
Speaking of 'race-baiting' and 'troll' threads.........

I can assure you, we see 90% of the racist comments and race baiting coming from the left. You might also pay attention to the liberals who seem to always be hanging out on a website called Stormfront. I have yet to see a conservative say they have been there. hussein obama has also made it clear he is a racist.
For decades after gunmen shot down his brothers, Sen. Edward Kennedy lived under constant assassination threats of his own, sometimes chillingly specific, as he became a target for extremist rage, previously private FBI documents disclosed Monday.
Five years after President John F. Kennedy was killed and shortly after Sen. Robert F. Kennedy was shot, one letter warned that the third brother was next: "Ted Kennedy number three to be assassinated on Oct. 25, 1968. The Kennedy residence must be well protected on that date."
Nearly two decades later, in 1985, the threats continued, this time including the Republican president as well as the liberal Democratic senator: "Brass tacks, I'm gonna kill Kennedy and (President Ronald) [COLOR=#366388! important][COLOR=#366388! important]Reagan[/color][/color], and I really mean it."
Releasing 2,352 pages from Kennedy's FBI file, many of them concerning threats over the years, the agency said on its website: "These threats originated from multiple sources, including individuals, anonymous persons and members of radical groups such as the Ku Klux Klan, 'Minutemen' organizations and the National Socialist White People's Party."
Obama is half white.
He is not doing a very good job as President.
We are stuck with another bad President and people don't know what to do.
It has nothing to do with race but rather than admit he is a slacker, people like to pull the race card.
Nothing to do with race, he is a Chicago politician and seems detached from the American people. He does what he wants and that is pretty sad.
