KKK marchers say they will be armed Saturday at Charlottesville rally

#Resist


It's worth noting that this article is about what will/might happen, and not what did happen.

What DID happen is about 50 Klansmen appeared to protest the removal of the statue, and about 2,000 counter-protestors showed up to protest the Klan.

It seems, then, that, if anything, anti-racism is alive and well...and growing...

Yes, MissBarbara; I thought it was pretty cool the way this worked out as well. I'm sure it's not what the Klan expected when they conceived of the whole thing. North Carolina is growing and morphing into something new, and its really neat to see. I could see myself living there. Twenty years ago I would have been aghast at the idea.

This is conjecture, but I wonder if the response to the KKK march was a backlash to the perceived support that Trump has given to racists?

There are three kinds of people in the world. Those who can count, and those who can't.

Nothing happens in a vacuum, so I don't see how Trump could not be a factor. But I would think the larger part would be residents of the place who don't want the state to be associated with old stereotypes of the South.

Yes, he was.

And the reaction to his election, as evidenced here (and this is one of many examples), is both effective and inspiring -- and hopeful.

Yes, that was my point.

It's not conjecture, as this is only one of many incidents that demonstrate that this backlash is happening -- and that it's effective.

Most important, this backlash is not solely occurring on the Left, as there are many mainstream (i.e. non-Conservative) Republicans who are joining in.

I think there have been a number of organic outpourings of resistance since Trump took office which were surprising because they seemed to spring up with little warning or coordination.

So I have no trouble accepting the point.

60 million people found racism an acceptable quality to be President of The United States.

"...60 million people found racism an acceptable quality to be President of The United States..."

Your word racism, but reality is every Vote for President Trump is "anyone but Hillary" vote, and in spite of his gaffs and the relentless attacks by leftist Media as well as RINO Republicans, and virtually all Democrats, he was elected, and his Voters are proud of the fact that we avoided the disaster of Hillary/Kaine that could have happened.

There was really NO pro-Hillary support of substance. Reliable Democrat States voted as they always vote, for the Dem Ticket, seemingly top to bottom, if they came out to vote at all.  The Dem Ticket swept their stronghold areas, they just did not have enough stronghold areas.

The rest of us, save some who like to throw away their votes no matter who is running, the Jill Stein and hard core Libertarians, and a few others, voted for the "non-Hillary" Candidate.

Donald Trump displaced 17 or whatever Republican Primary opponents, all with some claim to being qualified, only one or two will any real following, support for their personal positions, and even those came around to offer support to the man who was elected as our President, albeit grudgingly.

Good for ratings, keep the folks worked up, and hope it works for 2018, with nothing more to offer... desperate tactics, and will see how it turns out.

Some people are like the 'slinky'. Not really good for much,
but they bring a smile to your face as they fall down stairs.

You've always been a racist and your positions on this board validate that.

It's no surprise you'd find him acceptable.

Have you washed your white hood and rebel flag lately?

Hillary won the popular vote by nearly 3 million.  This is plenty of substance.  And before you say that our Presidents are not elected by the popular vote, I know that.  But that does not make the popular vote unimportant.  Trump cannot claim to have a "landslide" or a "mandate from the American People" without it.

The GOP put up a list of idiots and generally unelectable persons.  Rising to the top of that list did not mean so much.
