http://www.beaumontenterprise.com/news/us/article/Police-2-stabbed-at-KKK-gathering-in-Southern-6858281.php
ANAHEIM, Calif. (AP) — Three people were stabbed at a Ku Klux Klan gathering Saturday in Southern California, police said. At least one person was in critical condition.

An altercation between a group of KKK members and counter-protesters erupted at a Klan rally in Anaheim, with both sides involved in violent attacks, Sgt. Daron Wyatt with the Anaheim Police Department told The Associated Press.

Three people, all initially believed to be counter-protesters, were stabbed. One person was in custody.

Wyatt said a Klan member was stomped on by counter-protesters during another altercation. Three people have been detained.

The KKK has a long history in Southern California, with Klansmen holding elected office in Anaheim in the 1920s. Nationwide, the number of active KKK groups increased to 190 in 2015 after falling in 2013 and 2014, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center.

Gary...

Your hate-filled attacks against people who are Republicans (Most Republicans are not Racist, of course).

Show why the hate-filled Ideologues, KKK, Progressives, Marxists, Nazis, etc., should never be allowed to obtain power.

KKK hate non-whites.
Nazi's hate Jewish people (and non-whites)

Who is that Progressives and Marxists hate?

BTW: Marxists are included. Over 1 Billion murdered, enslaved, etc. over the past 100 years.

Are you confusing Marxism with Stalinism?

Progressives? Not a good foundation. Eliminatist Theory regarding Jews in the mid-nineteenth century. The NAZI's used the same excuses as these Progressives.

IE: Jews are Rats and Vermin - 'The Eternal Jew' NAZI Movie later on.

Margret Sanger's belief in birth control. In order to control the 'Inferior' Populations growth.

Hopefully the Progressive Beliefs have evolved into something civilized.

Margarat Sanger did some astounding work that did so much to prevent suffering and misery amongst people of all races. Her views were not those of Nazi's and although unpalatable to many now, they were hardly her defining world view and could hardly be said to come from a place of hatred. I suspect her views have been exaggerated by anti-abortionists to push their own agenda.

Her main support for birth control was to prevent suffering. There are still people out there that don't think people should have more children than they can afford to raise, or that drug addicts, or severely mentally ill people should have children. Misguided as those views are, I wouldn't put her up there with the KKK and the Nazi's and wonder why you think they are equivalent.

Perhaps there is an explanation, not one that will be admitted to however.

At the same time, numerous studies have shown that the white working class in America is under increasing pressure. Real wages have been declining for years, suicide and drug overdose deaths are way up, less educated workers increasingly are finding it difficult to earn a living, and income inequality is at near historic levels. Of course, all that and more is true for most racial minorities, but the pressures on whites who have historically been more privileged is fueling real fury.
...
In the second half of the year, a new factor came into play: a presidential race that grew more ugly by the month, beginning with Donald Trump’s description of undocumented Mexican immigrants as rapists and drug dealers and culminating, arguably, with his call for a temporary ban on Muslim immigration. Even as more establishment Republicans held back from most criticism, Trump and other candidates increasingly injected real hate into the electoral contest.
...
It’s time for others to speak up, too. As our country grows increasingly polarized and angry, politicians, pundits, preachers and other leaders should be working to bring us together — and to battle the anger and hate that surrounds us.

Mr. Trump has made expressing vitriolic discriminatory racist hate, which has no basis in fact, acceptable.

Religion and "ism"
http://phys.org/news/2016-04-ritual-human-sacrifice-unequal-societies.html
[quote]A new study finds that ritual human sacrifice played a central role in helping those at the top of the social hierarchy maintain power over those at the bottom.

"Religion has traditionally been seen as a key driver of morality and cooperation, but our study finds religious rituals also had a more sinister role in the evolution of modern societies," says lead author of the study Joseph Watts.

Researchers from the University of Auckland's School of Psychology, the Max Planck Institute for the Science of human History in Germany and Victoria University, wanted to test the link between how unequal or hierarchical a culture was – called social stratification – and human sacrifice.[/url]

Rather obvious Trump is a racist ...

Get Ready For Racial Profiling Under President Donald Trump
Donald Trump said Sunday that although he hates the idea of racial profiling, it might just be time to start implementing it anyway.

“I think profiling is something that we’re going to have to start thinking about as a country,” Trump said in an interview on CBS’ “Face the Nation.” “And other countries do it; you look at Israel and you look at others and they do it, and they do it successfully.”

“You know, I hate the concept of profiling,” he added. “But we have to start using common sense and we have to use, you know, we have to use our heads. We really have to look at profiling. We have to look at it seriously. And other countries do it, and it’s not the worst thing to do. I hate the concept of profiling, but we have to use common sense. We’re not using common sense.”
...
“I think there can be profiling,” Trump said. “If they thought there was something wrong with that group and they saw what was happening, and they didn’t want to call the police because they didn’t want to be profiling, I think that’s pretty bad. People are dead. A lot of people are dead right now. So everybody wants to be politically correct, and that’s part of the problem that we have with our country.”

While I respect your question, I don't think it requires an answer since I did not see anything in the quote mentioning Muslims. He could be referring to Hispanics, which was the first group he came out swinging against. Were Muslims mentioned in a larger article of which Gary only quoted a part or not?

Has been addressed back in the thread. The ISM word covers more than DNA differences now as it is the thought process of the discrimination is what the ISM word has become. So it now covers ethnicity in addition of DNA or skin pigmentation.

We went back and forth on who they 'profiled' as a terrorist. It was fascinating. And contrary to what I (and most others) would think it was.

It is very different. They don't profile on skin color. They profile on observation of traits, at least that is what my friend who has also talked to a few alleged Mossad. They have lists of things people should do or should not do. Missing the should and have should not and you get a talking to. They don't like the answers and you aren't getting on an airplane.

One item might be wearing a bulky jacket on a hot day.

I have seen the jacket remain on for several minutes after getting off the motorcycle. So, what if the motorcycle was left in the airport parking lot because that's how the person transported himself or herself to the airport?

BIRMINGHAM, Ala. (AP) -- Born in the ashes of the smoldering South after the Civil War, the Ku Klux Klan died and was reborn before losing the fight against civil rights in the 1960s. Membership dwindled, a unified group fractured, and one-time members went to prison for a string of murderous attacks against blacks. Many assumed the group was dead, a white-robed ghost of hate and violence.

Yet today, the KKK is still alive and dreams of restoring itself to what it once was: an invisible white supremacist empire spreading its tentacles throughout society. As it marks 150 years of existence, the Klan is trying to reshape itself for a new era

Klan members still gather by the dozens under starry Southern skies to set fire to crosses in the dead of night, and KKK leaflets have shown up in suburban neighborhoods from the Deep South to the Northeast in recent months. Perhaps most unwelcome to opponents, some independent Klan organizations say they are merging with larger groups to build strength.

"We will work on a unified Klan and/or alliance this summer," said Brent Waller, imperial wizard of the United Dixie White Knights in Mississippi.
