I would just remind all that the over sensitivity about race exists from more than black race toward the white race. The same is true in reverse. Just read a bit of the more radical right wing propaganda. From such reading one just might conclude that most every black persons who have ever spoken out is, or was, a "racist." |

Not sure it is a fair assumption to refer to "white supremist groups" as radical right wing. They are better classified as a "hate group". |

I didn't mean to be referring to "white supremest groups." Maybe I should know more about the posters on another forum which I frequent. |

Dictionary.com: 1. The belief that race accounts for differences in human character or ability and that a particular race is superior to others. 2. Discrimination or prejudice based on race. It doesn't say black or white now does it? Wikipedia: "The term PC is often used to mock either the idea that carefully chosen language can encourage, promote, or establish certain social outcomes and relationships, or the belief that the resulting changes benefit society. This mocking usage often targets certain forms of identity politics, including gay rights, feminism, multiculturalism and the disability rights movement." To that while others add liberalism I would definitely add social conservatism and fundamentalism. |

Point taken - but ya gotta admit, they sure ain't "liberals".... One can be a small part of a larger group, WITHOUT the larger group being the same as the small one. |

That's very true, as "white supremist groups", neonazis and such are remnants of the KKK which grew out of an earlier Christian Identity movement, but that in no way implies such radical renegade groups are even any longer Christian. Of course though, we do know for a fact that all liberals, and by implication, all Democrats, are socialist commie pigs, don't we? |
