Where is the outrage? The KKK is not responsible for the beheadings of late.
Excuse me, but are the beheadings the topic of this particular thread? If not, why try to hijack the thread?

<< Haley is right of course,
but I still do not want them
given permission to set up their booth. >>
Why not? As ol' Tom Jefferson said, "I may fight you to the death over your opinion; but I will defend to the death your right to express it."
Much as I despise the Klan, Aryan Nation, Christian Identity, and all such racist groups(it's right-wing kooks like them that give right-wing kooks like me a bad name) I support their right to publicly express their odious and unintellegent opinions.
Who are you to judge who has the right to be heard?
When referring to the KKK, I prefer to put it like this:
I may fight you to the death over your bumper sticker, but I will defend to the death your right to stick it.
I can attest that WKB is pissed off plenty at the beheadings.
Actually the KKK and the democrats are the ones with so much in common. Both use fear and hatred as their primary weapons.
In the immortal words of Ronald Reagan, "I don't know who you are or how you got in here but you've got it wrong."
In my words...Piss off and go to hell!
I smell troll...
La Raza is simply the Latino equivalent of today's version of the KKK.
"I can attest that WKB is pissed off plenty at the beheadings."
Then as the spokesperson for WKB, why is WKB not focussed?

Awwwww ... somebody stuned its little beeber.
Everything race based should be banned if anything race based is banned ---- why would a business run by someone of one color be better than one run by someone of another color?
Rats, I was too late. :) Oh well, can't say I'm sorry to see him go. Prolly slunk back to DU.
I imagine that a White Chamber of Commerce should and would be banned.
Somewhat contrary to two Freepers on this thread whom I admire very much, I am of the opinion that any racist group of any colour has the right to set up in a public place if everyone else gets to and that bad white folks should not be held to a higher standard.
However, I fail to see what any of that has to do about whether or not WKB dislikes the Moon Rock Head Choppers....I assure you he does.
One can prefer to limit white supremists access to public events and loathe the Islamists at the same time.
It's not a mutual admiration society by default.
Who are YOU to criticize somebody calling a racist doofus a racist doofus? You might have the right to spew the intellectual equivalent of dog excrement, but we have the equal right to verbally scrape it off our shoes.

Some trolls require just a little electricity, while others need a swimming pool full of Lysol.
Okay. . .
Let's put it another way.
If the Mississippi State Fair Board is allowed to stop this bunch from setting up a booth, what's to stop them from denying any group the right to pay their $300 and set up a booth at this public event? Suppose someone were trying to set up a Freeper chapter in ole Miss, and the fair board decided this was a right-wing organization and refused to let them set up a booth? Hey, no matter how bad these guys are, it's still political speech we're talking about.
Political and religious freedom; if you don't protect it for everyone, you haven't protected it for anyone.
Meantime, stay the heck out of our lives.
Because at this juncture in our state of affairs I could care less what the insignifcant KKK is up to. Moreover, I beleive any thread not dedicated to the destruction of terrorism is for the time being irrevelant.
I made the mistake of viewing the beheading of Armstrong on the internet from a link posted on freerepublic. This image consumes me.
I shall not rest till all terrorists are dead. Then I could consider the KKK activities. Others not so focussed are confused and irrevelent as is this thread.
I am glad to have hijacked this thread if that is the least I could do in the name of Armstrong and Hensley. Such a small sacrifice based on their sacrifice.
The KKK has become such a minority anymore, that they usually require police protection to keep the KKK members safe when they have a rally somewhere. Stone Mountain, Georgia, the former headquarter city for the Georgia Klansmen is now a predominantly black city. Times have really changed since when my parents moved me down to the metro Atlanta, Georgia area in the mid sixties. It was even a very tough time for a yankee kid to move south at that time, some serious culture shock for someone at the age of 13 thrown into a huge High School full of proud Southern Rednecks at that point in time. I must say that the Metro Atlanta area rapidly changed since it became the Capital City of the deep south with many Yankees moving south in the 1960's.
I hated it when we first moved to Georgia back then, now I just call it good ole home.
