So that justifies stifiling their free speech rights under the Constitution? You don't like them so its ok to deny them basic Constitutional rights? I don't like them either, but I would defend their rights to speak and march, even if I would be in a countermarch against them!

No, 'these scum' did not do that. It was other 'scum' who did that. Do I think the KKK has any redeeming features? Not any that I've ever seen. But to make a blanket condemnation of all members of the KKK because some did terrible things is the way they think.
If you are white and had been born a half century ago, the odds are very good that you would have some cultural racism ingrained in you. Don't you see? Now is not then. You aren't the same as a lot of people a half century ago.
And the KKK today is not the same as that of a half century ago, though it is still racist, and it is still contemptible to most of us.
But in any situation, it is not reasonable to condemn the actions of the whole based on the actions of one or two or the few unless such actions are by the order, advice, consent, and/or approval of the whole.
.You can live in a twisted reality of yours were there there is good kkk members
My mother was born half a century ago and she is not racist.So was my aunt she is also not racist.So your assumption that everybody back then was racist is bullshit.That rehtoric that everybody is racist or a little racist is nonsense that the kkk scum have ingrained into idiots who buy that garbage.
Do you consider anyone who sees things from a broader persepctive as living in the fantasy land you envision?Live in fantasy land is you wish

jamesrage said:If you have a large rabid dog on a leash in your backyard barking at you and trying to get you.What are you going to do?
Do run away and hope the dog does not break his leash and starts running after you.
Do you stand there and hope that the dog will be nice to you after ahile so that when it breaks it lease it does not attack you and infect you with rabies.
Or do you put the animal out of it's misery so that it does not bite or kill someone?
The KKK is like that rabid dog that wants to bite the **** out of you and infect you with rabies.Law enforcement is like that lease,but the second the law enforcement becomes weak the KKK will be up to their old activities again.But unlike the rabid dog tied to a leash they do not have to bite in order to infect others.
Are you suggesting that all KKK members should be eliminated because you detest who they are and/or their point of view? You don't see a parallel between that notion and how the KKK thinks?
jamesrage said:Your logic would be like letting Al-qaeda or Hamas run around on the street freely.I don't give a **** if they are peaceful now as far as I am concerned these
KKK,Nazis,aryan Brother hood and the other inbreeding racist groups are the American version of Al Qaeda and Hamas with exception to the Nazis who are German's version of a inbreeding racist group.

fam said:I'm interested in the phenomenon of slavery and discrimination of afroamericans in the USA in the 19th century. Because America is known to be the country of freedom and human rights.But it allowed slavery. I would like to ask you to explain all this to me because I cannot find a reasonable explanation. But please, only americans. This is really something that impresses and at the same time horrifies me.
Thank you in advance.

can't they see that 'skin' color has nothing to do with superiority? , color is just color.. its something animals use to find a nice mate...am i saying the whole belief of the KKK is based on the reasoning level of an animal? Yes
AlbqOwl said:It was quite simple. African warlords ran lucrative businesses trafficking in slavery and found new markets among European shipowners who in turn found lucrative markets among American plantation owners who desperately needed laborers to work their fields and maintain their property holdings. Not only were slaves trafficked to America but also to Canada, Mexico, and South America and numerous Carribean islands. It was a different time, a different culture, and ran on ignorance--white people were taught that black people were inferior beings and it was perfectly moral to treat them as property.
But as all free people will do, we learned, improved, became educated, and came to our senses and only a few leftover bigots now consider black people as inferior in any way. Americans now are horrified at the concept of slavery, yet there is no people anywhere that did not descend from people who considered the existance of slaves to be the norm.
One of my personal heroes, a black economics professor, has agreed that slavery was a terrible thing and there is nothing to condone it. He however says he personally is infinitely better off because somebody dragged his ancestors over here. He knows he has prospered and enjoyed a free and happy life that likely would have been beyond his reach had it been born and grew up in Africa.
fam said:Thanks for the information but it did not help me.
I know all these historical facts. I'm interested in the psyhological aspect of this issue. What was the attitude of the people then, their values, etc? Because slavery in America is in the 18th-19th century. Slavery was something normal during the Ancient and Medieval times but in the 18th century!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!
