Would you like the government to outlaw unpopular thought? How long will it take for you to formulate an unpopular belief?
Are you prepared to go to jail for your beliefs?
You can't legislate how someone should feel about another person. While racism "sucks" it is inherently protected by the first amendment.
Try to avoid the question of "why isn't the government doing anything about it...they love to take away freedoms rather than protect them.....so I would rather they stay out of it...and besides....free speech allows the civilized people to keep track of the crazies.

I am an African American female and I hate the idea of the KKK who blatantly prance around in white and announce their intentions. HOWEVER, there are those who do not belong ot any organizations and who are just as prejudiced as the KKK. If the government disbands organizations as such, should they also knock on individual's doors and have them fill out a survey to see if they can try to stop them from being racists also? AND, you know if that organization is forced by the government to cease, other people will complain and say they want clubs, groups, etc to be forced apart because they are personally offended by them. OF course I wish they would disappear, but if the gov't is the one who makes this happen, it then gives them the right to intefere with others who may not be doing as much harm.

OK. KKK is NOT the only "racist" organization in this country (or the world).
It is NOT the governments job to control our thoughts and feelings. Based on that notion, and our ideas about freedom and liberty, what do you propose is done? Simple fact is, that people in groups similar to the KKK are just people, most of whom do not break any laws.
Why are you so racist against the KKK?

Yes it does, and the world we now live in where everything has to be so PC, it's making it worse. It's time those so called people in power was to look more closely at all this and then they would see that all this PC stuff is making it worse. It makes everyone for more aware of racism for the wrong reasons, and because of it there is more of it.
One day I hope and pray that we will all look on each other and love each other for what we are, the colour of the skin is nothing, we are all the same beneath it. Let the world open their eyes and see each of us for what we are, let us all live together with no hate.
Love & Peace

kkk is not all about racism that's why they won't go away. racism stays around cause if it didn't people wouldn't be at peace knowing they have people they not willing to confront. government is doing something about it that's why people are hidden racists(for what reason they are hidden makes them chumps in my opinion,coming on line saying bull). not really cause why should this world be full of happiness, it's to to to many people that live on this planet which is why more species are becoming extinct

We are a group of ex-Muslims who have seen the face of the evil and have risen to warn the world. No matter how painful the truth may be, only truth can set us free. Why this much denial? Why so much obstinacy? How many more innocent lives should be lost before YOU open your eyes? A nuclear disaster is upon us. This will happen. It is not a question of "if" but "when". Oblivious of that, the world is digging its head deeper in the sand.
We urge the Muslims to leave Islam. Stop with excuses, justifications and rationalizations. Stop dividing mankind into "us" vs. "them" and Muslims vs. Kafirs. We are One people, One mankind! Muhammad was not a messenger of God. It is time that we end this insanity and face the truth. The terrorists take their moral support and the validation for their actions from you. Your very adherence to their cult of death is a nod of approval for their crimes against humanity.
We also urge the non-Muslims to stop being politically correct lest they hurt the sensitivities of the Muslims. To Hell with their sensitivities! Let us save their lives, and the lives of millions of innocent people.
Millions, if not billions of lives will be lost if we do nothing. Time is running out! "All it takes for evil to triumph is for good people to do nothing." Do something! Send this message to everyone in your address book and ask them to do the same. Defeat Islam and stop terrorism. This is your world, save it.

there are still alot of basket cases in this country, so the kkk still survives. makes you wonder what is wrong with some people, i just wonder if any member of the kkk has ever cheered on a black athelete or sang a song done by a black artist, somehow i am sure they have.

Everybody should have a right to express themselves as they feel. That being said you also have the right to disagree with anything that you want to. If you do disagree with the KKK then I would have to agree with you.

It is going to get alot worse with the war on terror, and all the illegals coming here. They have been around a long time. Freedom of speech and all.
