    Yeah, let ‘em parade around in their white sheets and hoods. Let ‘em burn some crosses (oops, fire laws in the park!) Then let the neo-nazis parade around in goosestepping brown shirts with swasticas…let them have rallies, wave flags, shout hate speech, then let ‘em walk around with “open carry” cannons strapped to their legs, Let ‘em carry bats and axe handles just in case they’re “attacked” while expressing their constitutionaly protected garbage and we will have such a happy and peaceful country.
    Well, that’s how Hitler started and that didn’t turn out half-bad, eh???

    Allowing an event is not the same as supporting an event. Under the constitution, every one has freedom of speach. I may not like what the KKK says, does, or the way they live or think, but I recognize that to withhold their voices is getting on the fast track to backlash by withholding their constitutional rights. Let’s not allow the KKK to be right.

    You people are all hypocrites. I dislike racism as much as the next guy. However, you guys are all for equal rights when it comes to racial minorities. Then when racist minorities do something. Oh no, we have to strip them from their rights. Equal rights for ALL!
