Neo-nazis are right wing extremists, just like skinheads and other white supremacists.


The national socialist party is right wing? BWAHAHHAHAHAAAA.

Okay, I've seen this at least twice on this thread, so I assume that at least one poster is really confused. The National Socialist German Worker's party was NOT a socialist or Communist group. You know them better as the Nazis. Modern white supremacists like to refer back to Hitler and the Nazis.

Um, no, idiot. Just because they have "socialist" in their name, does not mean they're socialists. I know it's confusing, but try reading some history sometime.

What was Hitler's goal? His party's rule - one party rule. What is progressive democrat's goal? One party rule. What is the conservative Tea Party's goal. Less government rule

Modern White Supremacists are not far right wing. They do not want less government.

I'm glad the Republicans are showing some leadership here.


"Now all that has changed." It has? Suddenly it all changed for you?

Let me get this strait: you were fine with the flag three weeks ago. You were fine with it when MLK was shot. You were fine with it throughout the civil rights movement.

But now you are not. Because of a single racist loser with a very twisted sense of African history over the last 35 years, you are suddenly opposed to the confederate flag.

Got it. Makes perfect sense.

A female republican governor of color. Enjoy the irony.

At this point it's the Republicans who are responsible for taking it down - but then again, Republicans dominate the SC legislature so it's on them to do it.

Interesting point. I can tell you that in at least a couple of states that I am very familiar with...there are those born and raised, or moved in at a very young age...there are Yankees who have moved there and haven't lived there long...and naturalized. Now, how do you know they have gone from Yankees to being naturalized? At least 10 years residency, twice the Federal requirement, and they don't say could you guys, or youse, get me a pop...it's can one of y'all grab me a soda, or Coke. All soda's are Cokes...so when someone says...can you, or y'all if plural, grab me a Coke...they will ask...what kind? LOL

As for Hillary...she might be an intellectual and economic elitist but I would be shocked to see proof of her being a racist.


Conservative here - she's not. Neither is Bill, despite their actions in Arkansas, and despite the fact he played golf at an all-white club. That's what makes this hilarious, when y'all call republicans racist for supporting the very piece of history that Bill and Hillary did. Either they, as well as the republicans you accuse, are racist, or neither are.

I will give you the KKK. THEY are racist. And are historically democratic. And Lord knows Johnson was!! https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=r1rIDmDWSms

Now? I think they are more likely to put up their own candidate that we can all ignore.





We've already been through the whole "KKK/Democrat" thing. The KKK "Democrats" were Dixiecrats who split off from the mainstream Democrats, and who are basically the Tea Party of today. Their ideology has virtually nothing to do with Democrats of today.


We are doing it again, until you get it right. The FACT is, the KKK overwhelmingly supported democrats back in the day, and for good reason. The Tea Party is not even remotely associated with the KKK - that is simply the progressive wet dream.


Again, you are suffering from mental dysfunction. The Dixiecrats that dominated southern politics and who were involved in the KKK SPLIT OFF from the Democrats and had far more ideology in common with the Tea Party of today than they do with liberals of today. The "Democrat" label is meaningless no matter how desperate you are to try and make the case. As for the Tea Party "not even remotely associated" - again you are either delusional or in deep denial of the facts. The typical Tea Party rally would quite frequently have confederate flags and racist epithets featured in its midst.


No, they did not. I've been to many Tea Party rallies and these signs did not exist. It was atypical in some areas and they were usually asked to leave - firmly - if they showed up. And how would you know a photoshopped image from one that's not? Do you just believe everything you see in a still photo, given technological advances today?

Would it be fair if I said the typical Occupy Wall Street protester shit on police cars or raped women in tents? I think we can both agree it would not be. That's the difference between us - I deal in reality.

Robert Byrd stayed in Congress for how long? Long past "Dixiecrat" timeframe as you call it. I would say 2010 was pretty late in the game for a 'dixiecrat' no? Clinton was an apologist for him no less. Were this was a republican, he would immediately be shamed into leaving, and rightfully so. Instead y'all forgive him. For being a KKK member, and to just a low-level member.

You just know so much history about that flag- did jimmy carter feel it was a symbol of hatred and worse towards blacks?


And if not, then when did it become one?


When did the flag become a symbol of hatred and worse toward blacks?

How about looking at what its designer, William Tappan Thompson, said about what it meant as a symbol:

As a people, we are fighting to maintain the Heaven-ordained supremacy of the white man over the inferior or colored race; a white flag would thus be emblematical of our cause.

Such a flag…would soon take rank among the proudest ensigns of the nations, and be hailed by the civilized world as THE WHITE MAN'S FLAG.

As a national emblem, it is significant of our higher cause, the cause of a superior race, and a higher civilization contending against ignorance, infidelity, and barbarism. Another merit in the new flag is, that it bears no resemblance to the now infamous banner of the Yankee vandals.


When did it become a symbol of hatred and worse toward blacks? It was a symbol of hatred and worse from the day it was designed.


The flag referred to here that has been flying in South Carolina (Stars and Bars) and you claim was designed by Thompson was not designed by him. He designed a flag that was adopted as the flag in 1863 that was known as the Stainless Banner because it had a pure field of white with the battle flag in the upper left hand corner. The flag in question (Stars and Bars) was designed by William Porcher Miles and was rejected as the national flag in 1861 but went on to be the battle flag of the Army of Northern Virginia. Since that time it has been commonly called the Confederate Flag but it never was.

So, your quote by Thompson does not apply to the commonly called Stars and Bars flag.


The intent remains and is crystal clear.


What a COS...small minds have a hard time admitting that they are wrong.
