  • Amid the Neo-Nazis and Ku Klu Klan, the Black Separatists stand out. They seem to want to found their own Black Muslim nation, so that might count towards hating America...maybe.
  • That was an interesting map. I was surprised the KluKluxKlan was still going. What clowns. I knew about the Aryan nation because I've met a few. Do they always have to be the most ignorant, illiterate, low-class white people around? Since Texas went Republican and has for some time, I would be surprised if they hate Republicans. But who knows, people hate anything for no reason. +5
  • It'd be nice to know what their membership numbers are. But the fact that so many of them are in Texas... All facetiousness aside, Texas should secede.
  • Difficult to say... Interestingly, there are even more active hate groups in California. Further information: http://www.splcenter.org/intel/map/hate.jsp "There are 66 documented hate groups in Texas alone.The Southern Poverty Law Center has been tracking hate groups for almost 30 years. In its spring 2009 Intelligence Report, they found that 926 hate groups are currently operating in the U.S., an all-time high. These groups include the Ku Klux Klan, neo-Nazis, racist skinheads and Black separatists. All hate groups have beliefs or practices that attack or malign an entire class of people, typically for their immutable characteristics. This list was compiled using hate group publications and websites, citizen and law enforcement reports, field sources and news reports. In St. Louis several weeks ago members of the National Socialist Movement (NSM) gathered, dressed in combat boots, wearing all black clothing and sporting signs and flags of hate. While you and I condemn these types of groups, they see nothing wrong in their message. They innocently claim to be a "Civil Rights Group for Whites". Now, I'm white and the only time my civil rights have ever been violated were in cases of homophobia, and sexual discrimination. I'm White so shouldn't the NSM defend those civil rights of mine, to be a lesbian, a woman? Hardly. As usual, these groups claim one thing and do another. They are growing rapidly due to the state of the economy which these groups blame on President Obama. They are also growing because a lot of jobs have been lost and they have nothing better to do with their time. In Texas, Arizona, & California they are growing even faster because of immigration. We all know that the Dept. of Homeland Security issued a report last month on right-wing Conservative extremists. We heard protests from everyone on the right. Even if they were not extremists they screamed they were being picked on because Obama was black and they oppose him. I do have to give props. to Shep Smith of Faux News for admitting there was validity to these reports. But that in itself, is not going to win the battle. Not when you have insane claims by other members of the press that James von Brunn was a leftist! Even more troubling, there's several million people that believe this preposterous claim."

  • No wonder I have such a tough time in Charleston, WV they have neo-nazi's here & well I am red.
  • I'm surprised that we still keep Texas as a state. Not only do they have 66 hate organizations they gave us two hateful presidents. Regardless of Johnson's civil rights record, he tried to have me and thousands of others killed in Viet Nam. Bush took great delight in killing pretty near everybody. There should at least be an amendment making Texans ineligible to run for president.
