Are we to believe any of these folks never heard of the CCC and what they represent?
I guess I didn’t watch enough news about this. I wasn’t under the impression that this “lone wolf” was associated with any group.
A thicket of lookalike, soundalike names and he’s supposed to react like a crystal ball. Yeah that’s the ticket.
And even so he still sounds like a madman who tagged along.
I didn’t know what the CCC was until I read Roof’s manifesto.
So smart as shit Ted is incapable of figuring out who he’s getting paid to speak to? BS - these guys have been around for years and are not much more than a white supremacist group.
Don't be a pollyanna Ted, our "society" is steeped in racism. We even have a Racist In Chief. Unilateral disarmament only results in you being defenseless and soon enough dead.
Good move.
Will other candidates return money from CAIR.
I looked at their mission statement I just skimmed it but I did not think they seemed racists to me. The Southern Poverty Law Center also put Dr. Ben Carson on an Extremist list because of his stance on Same Sex marriage. They did apologize to him after it was on Fox.
He donated as an individual, not as the CofCC.
Hard to vet every single donation.
the leader of a group that influenced the man accused of killing nine people in a South Carolina church last week donated $3,500 to Wisconsin Gov. Scott Walker and thousands more to other Republicans running for the presidency, campaign finance records show.
Walker, who could announce his presidential bid as early as July 13, will give to charity the donations he received from Earl P. Holt III, the president of the Council of Conservative Citizens. Others who received money from Holt are taking similar steps.
Holt donated tens of thousands of dollars to Republicans across the country, who scrambled Monday to decide how to dispose of the funds. Among those receiving money from him were U.S. Sen. Ron Johnson (R-Wis.) and the leadership committee run by U.S. Rep. Paul Ryan of Janesville.
They (the CofCC) are racist white supremacists closely allied with the American Renaissance movement and StormFront.
Don’t be taken in by flowery speech and lofty language.
Are we to believe any of these folks never heard of the CCC and what they represent?....I never did. Why should he?
Oh. Like I said earlier I just skimmed their mission statement and it what I saw I did not see anything bad.
Their mission statement says they opposes all efforts to mix the races of mankind...
Must have missed that when I skimmed through it. Maybe it was another site I was looking at.
wikipedia cuts to the chase some:
“Columnist Ann Coulter has defended the group against charges of racism, stating on the basis of a viewing of their website that there is “no evidence” that the CofCC supports segregation.[23] Coulter and Pat Buchanan are listed as being recommended columnists on the organization’s official website.
Mass murderer Dylann Roof searched the internet for information on “black on White crime”, and the first website he found was the CofCC website. He cited its portrayal of “black on White murders” as something that radically changed him (”I have never been the same since that day”).[24][25] The CofCC issued a statement on its website “unequivocally condemn[ing]” the attack, but that Roof has some legitimate positions.[26] An additional statement from Earl Holt III, President of the CofCC, disavowed responsibility for the crime and stated that the group’s website “accurately and honestly report[s] black-on-white violent crime”.[27] In the days following Roof’s arrest and subsequent investigation it was revealed that Holt had made campaign contributions to several conservative politicians including 2016 presidential candidates Ted Cruz, Rick Santorum and Rand Paul; all three subsequently announced that they would be donating Holt’s contributions to the families of Roof’s victims.[28][29]”

If that stupid mixed up kid merely looked at the website, is that some big sin?? I guess even reporting on black on white crime is racist.
Yes, that is bad, #2: http://conservative-headlines.com/introduction/statement-of-principles/
Ann is wrong.
CofCC is allied with Amren ... The American Renaissance movement, and StormFront.
Check the picture on their principles page. Amren 2004.
All speakers at that conference.
All WS.
All racists.
