Absolutely.

For over a century, the Ku Klux Klan has ostensibly stood for Christian moral righteousness and the preservation of the white race. From what, exactly, the white race needs to be preserved, I do not know. And upright Christianity? Sure. OK. If that makes them feel better about hanging a black man from an oak tree. OK.

Fact is, the white man has never, and does not, need protection from anyone or anything, nor does he have a leg to stand on when he argues this point.

The KKK is a gaggle of inbred moronic bigots. Period. I have little respect for them. Why? Because rather than just come out and say, "We hate blacks, Catholics, Jews, Puerto Ricans...." and that's just the way it is, they hide behind phony benevolence - some kind of redneck crock-of-shit philosophy. Hey, guys, just come out and say you hate spooks, and don't bother telling me why, and I'll be OK with that. But don't place God in your corner, OK?

But the Nation of Islam is a different story. In many ways, they are much like the KKK, without well-publicized violence. But the Nation of Islam struggles against LEGITIMATE political, social, and economic repression. Call it what you want: "The Nation of Islam," "The Nation of Kill Whitey," "The Nation of Fuck You Honky"....it doesn't matter to me. They're pissed off, and there's a good fucking reason why.

Why should they stand back and absorb all of the bullshit about "getting along" and "equality" and "civil rights"? Why? Because it IS bullshit. SAYING a race is equal is FAR from actually BEING equal. Yes, it is a step in the right direction, but ask a black man who gets pulled over by three cop cars in East Bumblefuck, Tennessee how "equal" he is in 2003.
