Hate Speech - or Joke?

Hate Speech - or Joke?

Just recently, San Cho posted this Photoshop picture of Sarah Palin in a KKK uniform in the comment section of my blog.

-

I personally condemn the picture and I can't find any humor in it.  My question is simple. Does anyone else condemn this?

And who supports it? I have joked around with photoshop pictures before, but I have never put anyone in a Hitler or KKK uniform because that goes beyond being a joke and crosses over into the realms of full blown hate speech.

It's because of cartoons and satires like these that make me love America! LONG LIVE FREEDOM! (Even if it is in poor taste every once in awhile)

If I were boss-hog, er, president I'd have them all round up and shot....Soylent Green for the less discerning palate...

 

In that case, I would have them deported to OZ. *_*

We're all convicts....not KKK fuckwits....;)

With our acute water shortage we'd accept their fluid content....but you can keep the lumpy bits...;)

:rofl:   You've got my vote Jafo, Zubaz for Vice Pres, HG_Eliminator Secretary Of Defense and Bebi Bulma Secretary Of State (Rice wouldn't stand a chance against her in a debate) Of course this leaves FrogBoy as Prime Minister Of The United Nations, which means that if it can't be skinned, it will be disposed! k1

Soylent Green for the less discerning palate

I refuse to stand in this line on distribution day!

Ewwwwwwww!

It was probably posted from JU, and not ALL the topics are confined to skinning alone, there are a bunch of other non skinning-related sections.

I think she looks kinda cute in white...

Your break will come at the same time OURS does, when Brad gets enough complaints about the forced crossposting between sites to seperate these disparate communties like they used to be.

It is already too late for the skinning community, it is already dead. When I look at the WinCustomize messageboard it is almost 50% support requests and 50% cross posting. Community posts, or posts about skinning are almost non existent.

You all have my sympathy, but by now you must have realized any complaints have fallen on deaf ears.

My choice (as suggested in #35) is click on the close button (a white x on a blue background in my case). Like so many skinners before me I'm no longer active on the site. What I do find annoying is when people comment 'where have all the skinners gone' like they don't know the reason.

Why did you click here?

People 'click here' because people know it's a cross post and wish to vent their anger. It's pointed in the wrong direction of course, but then the real culprits are not accessible, so everyone else gets it instead.

I am glad you continue to stop by however as I am sure are many others who think of you fondly.  Sadly, I fear you are correct.

The hood is far too tall, it looks more like a medieval-type thingy than a real klan hood.

That's about the strength of it... her outfit looks like it'd be more at home in a fairy tale than a KKK clubhouse

Rapunzel, Rapunzel... let down your hair that I may climb and kiss your ruby red lips

O:)

I find Palin immensely offensive regardless of what she is wearing.

If that vacuous waste of estrogen gets elected we deserve what we'll get. The first hubby trying to find a corner in the oval office to piss in.

Then what you 'all know' is wrong. The Klan was originally created as a merely fraternal organization. It later became militant during the reconstruction era after the civil war, led by an ex Confederate General named Nathan Bedford Forrest.

I find that as time passes, HISTORY has slowly eroded into HIS-STORY.

Classic example of HIS-STORY I'm afraid:

Ku Klux Klan (KKK) is the name of several past and present secret domestic terrorist[2] organizations in the United States, generally in the southern states, that are best known for advocating white supremacy and acting as vigilantes while hidden behind conical masks and white robes. The KKK has a record of terrorism, violence, and lynching to intimidate and oppress African Americans, Jews, and Roman Catholics during periods of turmoil.

I'm sorry little-whip, no matter what you feel the origin's purpose was you can't sugar-coat the fact of the matter!  And I know damn well who and what Nathan B. Forrest was, meaning there is absolutely no honor remaining for you to defend.

I have plenty of photos of this fraternal organization's extra curricular activities during and after the Civil War.  You may try reading "Conclave From Kokomo" which will enrich your current chronological beliefs of time-span and events.

Being 88 years old, someone should have told you the entire truth by now.

Care to sugar-coat more? http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku_klux_klan

I have no hatred for Obama or Biden, but I sure disagree with their political philosophy & positions.  The hatred for Palin, not simply disagreements with her past actions or positions, is so over-the-top, exposing the intellectual arrogance of the left.  Biden is a much bigger bufoon than Palin if you ask me - he's uninformed, makes gaffe after gaffe after gaffe, is wrong on his history half the time (and not just fuzzy little details), and he's the one the Dems tout as the experienced, knowledgeable, level-headed mentor BO can turn to when his inexperience requires it.  He's shown me that despite all his years in politics & in DC, he hasn't cared enough to learn squat, not even about the Constitution under which he serves.

The 'good' beginnings of kkk still doesn't make kkk just fine and dandy club to be in. In this case, history doesn't matter, kk is still truly hateful group of people.

"Conclave From Kokomo"

 

yeap! Kokomo, Indiana. 21 miles south of here on US31. i was there for 12 hours today and will be for 12 hours again tomorrow. at one time, inidiana was openly run by the klan. it was a sad time in our history. sadly, there are a few cities just a short drive from here that are still active klan enclaves. luckily, they aren't active as much as they were just a few short years ago. it was only 11 or 12 years ago, the klan had a rally in my hometown. i did find it fun to pull a few hoods from their heads, though. there's no need to hide under a hood, is there?

That's alright dude because beneath all that shit, I found a brother in you!

This membership stat might cheer you up some:

Anything before this is approximate:

Hey that sounds hilarious!  Did they chase you?

Trust me, those of us who enjoy discussing politics are as sick of being force-fed your skinning crap as you are of being involuntarily exposed to our political debates.
Thats funny Little whip until yesterday, Ive never seen you here other than for participating in a skinning community...So if you are sick of all of us shoving our "skinning crap" down your throat then take a walk and go somewhere that you can talk about your Political issues until your cuckoo twitches...Funny thing is I actually used to like you, until this...No need to be a bitch! x_x

Nope!  Anyone who finds it necessary to hide behind a mask/hood (excluding actors) has serious image issues and is usually up to no good... both of which the KKK are well known for.

Secret/clandestine societies that have to resort to such extremes obviously don't have a set of balls among them

Hey Skinhit, calm down.  This article was posted on JoeUser, and Whip is exclusively a JoeUser poster.  You're the one who's playing on the other side of the fence because it cross-posts on WC.

That's a fact, but he still gets six from me because what he said is the truth!

In the meantime, might I suggest the little red X in the upper right hand corner of your browser as the nearest convenient exit? (Unless of course you've changed it into a fuzzy pink unicorn icon or something equally silly. If that's the case, you're on your own.)

cplair, they didn't chase me at all. they weren't happy with me, though. i was called a few names i had never heard before :) . the really funny thing is the guy they were supposedly in town to scare was actually walking amongst them. donnie was walking amongst them talking to numerous members of the klan asking whey they hated blacks. remember, donnie is black.....has been all his life. it seems the bunch that was here that day backed down when they were confronted with a crowd of citizens that let them know they weren't welcome. they tried to put up a cross on the courthouse lawn but it was taken from them. i'm sure that doesn't happen everywhere but it sure did here. i was proud of my fellow citizens of the town.
