Do you think a monument to a KKK founder is a slap in the face?

    I'm not surprised at all. Anyone who has paid attention for the past 20yrs up to Obama being president can tell you that we haven't come far enough to say we are post-racial in this country. Most white folks just lied dormant dealing with the so-call change but the whole time KKK stayed in existance and new up-coming hate groups developed while other's conveintely sat back and allowed it. Now we have to prepare for this up-coming and final race war that has been long over due. It couldn't be cone with love and patience as Martin L. King suggested. Now it has to be done as Malcom X have famously stated. "By any means neccessary" After reading so many blogs and tweets about Obama I have come to the conclusions that we do need to cut the cancerous hate out in this country. Which started back in the very beginning with the so-call explorers who decided to kill, rape, steal instead of respecting the occupamts they encountered. This country will never have peace until all the wrongs that was done is righted. I am personally ready for this event.

    When are African Americans gonna wake up and know they're history!!!!! That confederate flag is an African symbol.. The 13 stars represent the 12 months in a year plus the sun which makes 13.. All concepts come from Africa that's why your discriminated against.. The clans dress code is a direct copy from the Negro Christian s of Sevilla which every year till this day they wear those clothes.. Hitler slastika is the African Grammadon which represents light!!! Its time to know thy self your ancestors created math with the pyramids, knew about electricity, agriculture , and the 1st to walk with an no who god is. Remember! Before there was light there was chaos.. Total darkness which is what god represents.. The carbon color for light is black so now u no why you were 1st . Know ya history, quit calling yourselves niggers and niggas and show sum knowledge and respect for ones self..

    Nathan Bedford Forrest did not serve as the first Grand Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan. Forrest stated while under oath of congress… ‘any information he had on the Klan was information given to him by others.’ When asked before a congress… ‘Did you take any steps in organizing an association or society under that prescript (Klan constitution)?’ Forrest replied : ‘I did not’ Forrest further stated that ‘..he thought the Organization (KKK) started in middle Tennessee, although he did not know where. It is said I started it.’ Forrest would latter say ‘It was a matter I knew very little about. All my efforts were addressed to stop it, disband it, and prevent it….I was trying to keep it down as much as possible.’ In the same hearing in congress (June 27th,1871) Forrest was found innocent of the accusations against him at the Battle of Fort Pillow. Forrest was allowed to go home and live out his life where he would become an advocate of civil rights. One of his best examples is found in his speech to the Independent Order of Pole-Bearers Association in 1875, where he is quoted.

    “Ladies and Gentlemen I accept the flowers as a memento of reconciliation between the white and colored races of the southern states. I accept it more particularly as it comes from a colored lady, for if there is any one on God’s earth who loves the ladies I believe it is myself. I came here with the jeers of some white people, who think that I am doing wrong. I believe I can exert some influence, and do much to assist the people in strengthening fraternal relations, and shall do all in my power to elevate every man to depress none.I want to elevate you to take positions in law offices, in stores, on farms, and wherever you are capable of going. I have not said anything about politics today. I don’t propose to say anything about politics. You have a right to elect whom you please; vote for the man you think best, and I think, when that is done, you and I are freemen. Do as you consider right and honest in electing men for office. I did not come here to make you a long speech, although invited to do so by you. I am not much of a speaker, and my business prevented me from preparing myself. I came to meet you as friends, and welcome you to the white people. I want you to come nearer to us. When I can serve you I will do so. We have but one flag, one country; let us stand together. We may differ in color, but not in sentiment Many things have been said about me which are wrong, and which white and black persons here, who stood by me through the war, can contradict. Go to work, be industrious, live honestly and act truly, and when you are oppressed I’ll come to your relief. I thank you, ladies and gentlemen, for this opportunity you have afforded me to be with you, and to assure you that I am with you in heart and in hand”

    As disappointing as it was watching the story we have to take a step back and not allow others hatred to fester in us. Pray for them and turn it over to God.

    Instead of progress this nation in in regress. At this rate before its all said and done we will be refugees in someone else's country. Racisim is still alive and festering in this country it was just silenced.

    The more we ask for equal rights and fairness the more the country gives rights to the true nigger - dictionary definition.

    I can not believe in this day and age that such an idea as this is even being considered. God help us all.

    This don't surprise me. White folks are new to the planet. Since they got here they been killing, lying, and deceiving. Question is what is anyone gonna do about it. These devils continue there agenda. Any society built on this kind of foundation will surely fall.

    God speed

    This is just the beginning of their world domination of the poor, minority, helpless, and ignorant. They are already claiming their stake, and the KKK is only one branch of this inevitable sick and twisted corruption. Watch and see!

    We are in the middle of the post-Missouri Compromise. We are not half way to an egalitarian society. Not one official in Alabama, elected or appointed, has spoken to what happened in Oak Creek, WI. Only because of the Southern Poverty Law Center did anything happen to shed light. Had it not been for the video tape the shills of Oak Creek would have played the deny card. They began lying early on that Sunday and kept it going until video evidence showed that Wade Michael Page committed suicide. Otherwise the lie being woven from Sunday until Thursday would have been the history.

    Do not expect the progenitors of America's nightmare to cease. In fact, EXPECT the progenitors to be unceasing in their effort to weave a spell of lies every chance they get. Not one of the liars in Oak Creek, WI has apologized for their dis-information campaign. Expect the lie, not the truth. How tall is the statue of the housewife from Detroit?
