Confederate flag supporters, aka Republicans, indicted

They're just celebrating their heritage. The heritage of years of hatred and enslaving an entire race of people.
Again though, I'm in favor of individual people flying the confederate flag. Its better he have your bigotry out in the open, then hidden behind closed doors.

Oh shut the #$# Slenderson, you probably never even met a black person before. Go live in East St. Louis, and let's see how tolerant you are. You Slendy, wendy, little pendy butt pump.

I wonder if he's ever impersonated one on a message board before? I hear the impersonators understand what its like to black more than anyone else (even black people).

Yes if we would just all meet some black people I'm sure we would all hate them just like you right?

Or lack of hatred of black people comes from our general inexperience at having ever met or probably even seen them.

sigh...
 
According to the article the One doing the indicting is the republican and he is doing it improperly. Also according to the article if anyone should be arrested, it should be those who were actually assaulting others by throwing rocks at them.

Not the ones "traveling together as a group, intimidating and terrorizing people.” They are the REAL victims here.

Odd post from the least racist poster on the board. You have an organized group of flag lovers we should let the One know about?

Can't see from this article, or others on the first couple pages of google or bing, anybody know what is actually alleged to be the threat(s) made? I assume it is not the "we see you" on the video that caused the party-goer to yell to "stop that truck that's a threat." Again assuming, probably something much more threatening was done/said prior to the arrival of several police cars. Too bad the media again fails miserably in reporting facts in favor of attention grabbing headlines.

Not knowing more details, sure smells like a publicity seeking prosecutor trying to achieve name-recognition through overcharging. The statute provides a MINIMUM 5 years. Pretty harsh for buffoonish ignorant behavior of racist goons who no doubt would say they are just celebrating their heritage. Charge em for what they did (threatened/intimidated) and if you prove it have em sentenced to just punishment, fine well and good. But shoehorning these yahoos into being the Sopranos?

Exactly the response I was expecting. The point being is that the criticism an angst between white and black people is seen as being one sided. As if the only racists are the white people. NEVER have you EVER seen someone like Ciggy, Huey, Slendy, WWJD, etc, ever point out black racism towards white people.
How can you ever take those type seriously when you only ever hear them attack one side of the issue. That is what you call systematic indoctrination. Despite the very obvious and common sense understanding that people should understand about these matters, they simply allow themselves to play one side of the issue, because of a stubborn need to stay in conflict.

Where is your concern when the opposite is happening. Did you also ignore the part where bottles were being thrown at the truck?

You're automatically assuming that the truck started the conflict. You never even thought that it could be the other side of the argument, or just a flat out two way street going on here.

Indoctrinated and unable to think for yourself. Fight for all angles on racism, or just be a hypocrite.

Fred, always there when black people are supposedly being messed with. When black people are doing the messing around,...make jokes, ignore, be hypocritical, and...that's about it.

You'll never be taken seriously until you stop being so easily led, and make no mistake, you are. It's easy for us 'water' types(Natural), to understand the issues without having to attach our chose biased approach to them.

You'll never realize how foolish you all look.

"We will stand up against the racists!!!",.....the white ones that is. Because that is what the system taught us, and that is all we choose to believe...meanwhile.....

Oh there are black racists... Wasn't too fond of the guy that prayed at Obama's inauguration "when the white man will embrace what's right" That's a pretty racist statement.

That having been said I've never seen too many black people flying openly racist symbols and there is no long history of systematic oppression and lynchings behind those symbols.

Black racists may say racist things, and there may be hate crimes committed by individual blacks against whites (which arn't called that for political reasons) But I've never seen a picture of a whole crowd of black people holding a party while a white guy was hanging from a noose. I've never seen black people do something horribly violent and it being completely obvious that it was them and then being found not guilty by an all black jury.

I've never seen a black state house enact laws to make sure that the white people don't go to their schools which are clearly better in every single way.

The confederate flag was there for all of this organized societal oppression and much more. Created to symbolized a rebel group that was fighting to keep African Americans enslaved. It is therefore racist based on it's very history, no matter how many people think differently. And the fact that there are black racists that exist does not in any way make it ok to be a white racist or to fly racist symbols.

You've never seen any of that in these current times either Hoosier. The past does not justify the present. The fact is, that all those things you listed, which we've had crammed down our throats since grade school, is simply history that is atrocious, but shouldn't ever be used to undermine the progress that has been made since.
It's time for generations of folks, to quit using something they were never even close to being part of as an excuse to tear down peaceful society.[/QUOTE]

The American flag and Christian cross were there too. In that video there is an American flag on all those trucks as well.

If you bigots didn't want to see people rally around a the flag, then you probably should have left it alone.

And which party did all these horrible things?

I find it interesting that the Confederate-flag-defending "least racist person on this board" is so quick to point to the completely unsubstantiated claims of the white men in the idiot convoy as a defense.

Everyone's claims in that article are unsubstantiated.

I'm just going by the old grade school rhyme. "Sticks and stones..."

Could you PLEASE try and refrain from using "idiot." There are people here who have special needs relatives and children. Idiot has a very abrasive and insulting connotation. Show some compassion. I know that's your favorite word... almost your trademark/signature word... but, pretty please? I'll give you a big hug and a kiss if you can stop hurling the idiot insult in almost every post. I mean, I know when you resort to name-calling you automatically win your argument, but, you can refrain from offending certain people, I'm sure. This isn't England, after all.

Idiot. Were you truly offended, you should have used "i-word".

I had never heard of the term "mome" before. Thank you for expanding my words for "someone who acts in a self-defeating or significantly counterproductive way." Lets all try to use that 3 times in conversation today.

Yep...you just chose to highlight one group over the other and suggest that it was the complaining group that should face arrest.
No, I said the idea of charging people for flying a flag is improper. It's actually asinine. flying a flag is not a crime. throwing rocks at people is. It has nothing to do with any groups. Frankly, if I was the DA, I wouldn't charge anyone, as there doesn't appear to be any evidence other than unsubstantiated claims, however, if I'm going to arrest someone based on such claims, I will treat the claims equally, and not play favorites. I'm certainly not going to use a BS terror/gang law in a case where it clearly should not apply.

So you just skipped over the part where the group having the party said there were threats made and at least one weapon brandished? You sure didn't mention it. Curious for someone so latently NOT racist.

I'll assume (at the risk) that the Repubber DA might have more info than you.

I haven't either. The post was to reveal how using idiot, moron, retard, imbecile, etc., are not always meant to malign actual clinically-diagnosed intellectually-impaired people. Especially when the people using it are referring to people who aren't. When you pick and choose one as being "offensive" but continue to use the others, you sort of prove why choosing just one as always being offensive is, actually... stupid, dare I say.
 
I'm surprised this happened. Didn't they remove the Rebel Flag from the General Lee car? I mean, look at all the racial hatred THAT CAR brought into the world. Those Dukes were some of the most racist people ever.
 
THANK you! I knew you didn't have it in you.

But, here's a big hug anyway. No kiss, since you seem uptight about that.

It's just a word...no idea why you're so upset. You can't even discern my intent, yet here you are.

But do please refrain from entering my personal space without permission, thanks very much.

I'm absolutely NOT upset by it. I love it! I love that you reveal how you're identical to all of these people you love to feign superiority over. You CAN'T offend me with your words! It's literally impossible!

No matter how much you want me to be racist, I will never hold a candle to you. I don't care about a persons race. It's that simple. Apparently it's a big deal to you.

As for brandishing a weapon. If you are going to arrest someone based on that claim, then you should also arrest those who were claimed to throw rocks. That's one thing. You certainly don't arrest a dozen other people who did nothing but display a flag.

As I said in my last post, I wouldn't have arrested anyone. Now maybe the DAnhas some other info, but for now we only have the article to go on, so that's what I'm going on.

Yet, you were compelled to respond. Methinks thou protest too much...but, then, you and hypocrisy are bosom buddies. (I hope "bosom" doesn't offend you.)

Once again...and try to follow here...YOU made a point of pushing one group's unsubstantiated claims and ignored the claims of the other group in your rush to defend your flag. It certainly seems to call your professions of being post-racial into question. I haven't commented either way except to defer to the DA.

You gave me a perfect opportunity to show what a fraud the whole "offensive word" crap really is. I was compelled, absolutely. The "protest" was anything but! You helped to prove the point that they are JUST WORDS. And, we, as listeners/readers, do have a responsibility to pay attention to intent. Thank you! I'll give you that kiss after all! Try and carry this attitude over into all aspects of debate, conversation and awareness of dialogue. Or, keep pretending you're the most superior, I don't care.
