Racist groups make racism more palatable by using innocuous names. Trouble.

I came across this hate group website and thought it important to point out one simple thing common to bigots and morons.

They engage in conflation so as to gain the benefits of ticking people off while denying what they're doing. Bunch of pussies if you ask me.

Specifically, this group calls itself the innocuous sounding Council of Conservative Citizens. The Southern Poverty Law Center keeps tabs on them, especially since Obama was elected.

Sounds benign until you read their racist bullshit. They're entitled to their opinion, but there's no escaping the racist aspects of their views. It's even worse if you go to their state Chapters, viz., Alabama.

Their view is that all problems stem from Marxists, Left-wing, elitist (read: educated) whites and the non-whites who support them.

Despite the obvious conflation of Communism with Liberalism (They're not the same unless you're trying to deceive people..), these bozos, do everything but wear white robes and salute Hitler.

Everything but open association with traditional racist groups is what distinguishes these groups. By a process of gradual habituation, they make racism more palatable.

If that weren't the case, then they'd have the balls to be honest with their name and their agenda.

Glad to be in America with an expansive view of liberty

When I read articles like this one I thank the stars that be that I live in America.

Why?

In America, wing nuts have the burden of proving why something should be banned. Those of us who advocate for an expansive view of freedom as opposed to some moral watchdog's limited notion of free speech breathe a sigh of relief.

America, despite all her faults, requires that wingnuts expose themselves to the public square and potential ridicule in order to push their agenda.

Transparency can never be underestimated as a valuable tool for freedom.

Video reminds us how we lose our freedom, in small increments and not in major steps.

Here's a video that provides food for thought. Good points for us all to remember.
