Just think, Robert Byrd, the Congressman loved and respected by all of the Democrats like Pelosi, joined the KKK after NBF ordered it disbanded for ethical reasons. Byrd was a member of the new racist and radical KKK that Forrest wanted no part.

They need an Emanuel Goldstein.

More tragically, their followers need their regularly scheduled hate week to give their otherwise meaningless lives some purpose.

Recently bought my first Confederate flag and a State of Texas CBF, which I will proudly fly on my new 30-ft. flagpole. Not out of racism, but out of rebellion with our new form of government. The old US Government was felled in a coup by one un-elected SCOTUS. It has tetered since hope-and-change hit the masses in 2008. Now, our once great nation is in a death spiral.

WHY THE REGIME PICKED ON THE CONFEDERATE BATTLE FLAG
AND NOT ROOF’S MANIFESTO

Because it was under threat of questioning and possible impeachment proceedings by its so called political opposition the regime needed to defer or stop any movement toward this. It was necessary to use a political device usually atrributed to Saul Alinsky but used by the nazi and commie’s like Stalin with the “Kulacks” through racial division. It created persons engaged in felonious assults on authority who were black youths into; “Victims of an evil society” (thus approving their actions) out of whole cloth.

The regime began with the Zimmerman case which resulted in a series of assults by black youths on completely innocent whites,”hispanics”, and asians who were either targeted or wandered near or through black gang infested areas. The perpetators excuse; The reported “cold blood killing of Treyvon Martin because he was black”

It led to a score or more deaths and serious injuries which were treated as local news ignored and forgotten. And it was met with silence while this was happening. Neither the locqatious POTUS or his political opposition uttered as much as a “Now!,Now! or a “tsk!,tsk!”.

Those killings were referenced by the Charleston Church massacre perpetrator in his crazed manifesto.

Naturally when it was discovered that mention of those score of murders were used in this nut cases’s “manifesto” the reaction was....“Well we can’t let that out.

Oh ! His face book has him holding a Confederate battle flag, (Which to many is simply an ensign of protest and rebellion), that must be his excuse “The Confederates made him do this horrible act ! Let’s get them !” Well they’re doing a good job of perverting what that battle flag’s used for at the same time ignoring the regimes complicity in engendering those previous racial incidents.

I’d like to ask anyone here yankee or southern or whatever

What would they have done when the radical republicans and carpetbaggers ruled the south in Reconstruction?

And read about how it was before responding

You’ll have to dig past Mark Levin soundbites
