Your facts are wrong lady! Your speaking of the second version of the Klan. As far as it original purpose? It was to promote white supremacy in the aftermath of the American Civil War. Get your facts straight. Geez. And a fraternal organization? Cmon liitle whip, your not that naive are you. haha.

@SanChonino....... Skinhit doen't have to do anything. I think your a "little-whipped" it sounds like haha.

Thank you also PDJ!

More like,.... whatever it takes to stay in the spotlight.

HIS-STORY: And it is so painfully obvious from this rather bias analogy that you don't have a single ounce of Black History in you!  Not a clue.  I knew you wouldn't attempt to read "Conclave From Kokomo," because had you done so, we wouldn't be here.  Thus you can believe what you want, but the truth is there.

Yet you have such insight about the plight of people you refuse to know.

Do you even know what the lyrics to "Wade In The Water" mean?  Ever hear of the "Midnight Raiders?"  Your chronology is distorted.

Study the truth and not someone else's bedtime story, because right about now, this is so disgusting, I'm going no further with this.

Blatant and willful ignorance is a shame, but attempting to open eyes which wants to remain shut is a bigger shame.  I guess terrorists don't exist until a plane knocks a tower down.

For Leauki and LittleWhip who knows US history better than anyone:  Ignorance is not bliss kids

Born poor in Chapel Hill, Tenn., in 1821, Forrest amassed a fortune as a plantation owner and slave trader, importing Africans long after the practice had been made illegal. At 40, he enlisted as a private in the Confederate army at the outset of the Civil War, rising to a cavalry general in a year.

Nah partner, what's hilarious is your inept ability to see no further than your own nose!  And it obvious they don't teach no better in Ireland, so you can keep your low opinion.  How in the world can you tell someone to study when you don't?  Your ignorance is comical.  Now go on and jump on another soapbox!

Oh, the above info was written by a white woman, so there goes your bias black history theory

May I suggest that you study further on subject matters that you have no clue about rather than speaking from stupidity

I find it hilarious how you completely ignore everything she says and then simply fall into a discussion about black studies.

It is your chronology that is distorted. She is talking about the reconstruction era, after the Civil War. Slavery was outlawed at that point.

"Wade In The Water" I understand is a 20th century song referring to Moses and his people. The urban legend about those songs being coded messages for fugitive slaves is perhaps what you are referring to. Is that what they teach in universities these days?

(Do you believe that fugitive slaves needed to be told that they should walk in water to escape hounds? It's not rocket science and slaves probably knew a lot more about blood hounds than those who later tried to find coded meaning in their songs.)

I think you studied black history too much and forgot about common sense. Studying anything that is specific to black or white people is stupid. Try studying history instead of black history.

Please don't swim in our toilet. We do not piss in your swimming pool...

thats just the problem with you fucking trolls. You have to continue your bullshit mouth time after time after time.

Yeah, Brad needs to get JU off of WC, on that I think we ALL agree. However that does NOT give you a gold card to bash the mentality of people that like to customize their PC's as opposed to waging a word war for fun now does it.

Little whip is harsh but she is right.  You are in their house now. If you don't like it, it's just a click to get out. Until Brad seperates the 2 sites this will always be an issue. I can understand them being sick of seeing skinning related stuff on their blogsite as is we get sick of listening to people ranting about absolutely nothing that matters.

Besides, WC is a little too goody goody. All the drama has been used and redone and so on. At least JU'ers offer fresh Drama.

It is the politically correct against the politically incorrect.

 Exactly so!

I find the politically incorrect more comfortable!

My 2 cents?

There's a growing community of users of "Phoney Umbrage", and folks just looking for a reason to be "offended". Most of it based on one "entitlement" or another. The main reason for it though is profit of one kind or another.

Who cares about silly Photoshopped crap on the net? Laugh at it or shake your head....but move on. No one's gonna apologize or worry about your hurt feelings. The world just doesn't spin that way anymore (if it ever did).

To conduct a discourse one has to respect the person on the other end. And, respect has to be earned by the tone of the responses: This is civility. It is the sine qua non.

Civility is not "Political Correctness" nor is it the "Thought Police". It has to do with manners.

Well, that's my 2 cents.

I dont think it was meant that way, but then the perfect revenge is to laugh at it that way.
