They put the 'Rad' in Radical.

So you know that feeling you get when you see all that footage of the Tea party people, or when Sarah Palin earns a place on a network that considers itself a 'news organization', or when said so-called 'news organization' is the top rated news network in the country? Yeah well prepare thine vomit bags (or really just the nearest garbage receptacle will suffice) and feast your eyes on these folks...

The Southern Poverty Law Center lists hate groups such as 'neo-Nazis, white nationalists, neo-Confederates, racist skinheads, Klansmen and black separatists' as being on the rise in America - corresponding so nicely with news that the supreme court is reconsidering the ability of the state to place limits on individual gun ownership.

As the song from the movie Hustle and Flow reminds us... 'Its hard out there for a rationally-minded-individual-who-is-just-trying-to-get-by-in-America-without-having-to-live-gripped-by-fear-of-persecution-and/or-sudden-death' At least we think thats how that song goes?

- Ian Kershaw

"First they came for the Jews
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Jew.

Then they came for the Communists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a Communist.

Then they came for the trade unionists
and I did not speak out
because I was not a trade unionist.

Then they came for me
and there was no one left
to speak out for me."

- Martin Niemöller

Hate groups must be opposed at every turn. They should never be able to have the streets. In Europe, when fascism actually had a foothold there, there was a strong antifascist resistance everywhere that still is felt even to this day.

Black supremacist groups are no different coming out of the same ideological pseudo-scientific bullshit that the white supremacists/racialists/white nationalists/what separatists adhere to.

The anti-fascist and anti-racist movement is still alive and kicking now more than ever nationally and abroad.

Comment by dwoyne nash on March 10, 2010 at 5:06pm: the only reason i think why there are hate groups, cause those white racist fkers have nothing better to do with their fking time.

Comment by G.I.A.G. on March 10, 2010 at 11:20am: Oh okay. So can hate be outlawed? We talking about banning a human emotion. Crime is crime so why is a hate crime different why can't it just be a crime? Also can we fight hate with hate? What about combatting hate with love? Is that realistic? Can someone express there opinion about something or someone they dislike without being called a "hater"?

Comment by angie1340 on March 10, 2010 at 5:52am: There also other issues than direct violence, like Jane Elliott's experience.It should be in school programs.

Comment by angie1340 on March 10, 2010 at 2:10am: Well it's a tradition, when a punk see a racist to smash him, and kick him with bike chain...

Comment by angie1340 on March 10, 2010 at 2:07am: I just said, that racist organization should be forbidden. It's against human rights. A new propaganda must start, like against communism. I think, America is wared, banding communism and not nazi organizations, it should have been treated since the 50's.
I was just speaking about a time in Paris when extreme right movement tried to take control on the youth. Like in UK. Skeanheads movement

So it is a must when a punk see a skin, to fight, like cat&dog.
It's a permanent open war since late 70's.
It's even not a black people problem, most of those punks are local people, so You first have to keep on your mind that all good will is good to take, it's not a black against white fight, but a good against evil kind of war.

Comment by angie1340 on March 10, 2010 at 1:43am: hating racists is self defense.

Comment by G.I.A.G. on March 9, 2010 at 6:37pm: So are you considered part of a hate group if you hate racist people?

Comment by King Moravian on March 9, 2010 at 6:32pm: Im telling you people of all races should rise up and woop some racist ass
Or protest cause our country allowing all this bullshit is stupid
