    So I can shout at you whenever I see you and however much I want to that your mother's "a c*ck sucking whore" lol. Come on. I don't think that that's what freedom of speech means...

    No, for that would be slander against a specific person. You are free to shout out though "women are whores and should locked in the kitchen"

    If the KKK influences an entire generation to become skinheads, then everyone else failed at their free speech at stopping it.

    That was an assumption that I didn't know that:).

    Yes, you can do that in Georgia. Then, whoever you have you yelled it to can invoke the "fighting words" law and beat the crap out of you.

    And if that person invokes the "fighting words" law and attacks me, and I fight him or her in self-defense and hospitalize the person, am I still punishable by law?

    And, am I responsible for the attackers medical bills?...

    If we let anti abortion scum protest in our streets and the god hates fags people then we should certainly le the Klan march.

    Yes, of course, no question about it. The most important aspect of Free Speech is protection of unpopular speech.

    YES!!! Funny link if you are really pro choice

    Well, mostly because they don't clearly condone violence, anymore. They were declared a terrorist organization back in the late 1800s.

    Now the Ku Klux Klan isn't really one organization. Most of them act legitimately. I've only heard of one Klan crime int he last two decades. That chapter of the Klan and the Klansmen were both prosecuted heavily.

    Well this sounds like terrorism to me: https://www.youtube.com/watch?v=21XWx7GCTmE (holding Black doll babies with nooses around their necks and "I don't have a problem with [the Klan's history of killing]" lol. How is the statement at 0:44 not a terroristic threat lol?:confused:...

    It's not a threat, he's speaking in a historical context. If he was talking about how he participates in such acts - then it would be a different story.

    Damn, your name is even tougher for me than my friend with African heritage. Olliwalli Olajdarin
    I'm not sure if the first one is spelt right =P

    How do you pronounce your last name?

    Sorry, my name and what followed it accidentally appeared because of technical problems. It's pronounced Ah-BEAK-Ooh.

    No sir. He was speaking in the present tense. "I don't have a problem with that," which equals "that type of stuff is OK in my book." That is a threatening statement to make.

    Do you disagree that holding a Black doll baby with a noose around it's neck is a terroristic threat?:peace:

    ... So? He hasn't admitted in participating in such things..
    Yes, I do disagree. The colleges near here hang effigies of King George III for some American holidays. I don't think it can be taken a legitimate threat to overthrow the king =P
    I think holding a Black doll with a noose is mean, hateful, and disgusting - but I can't take it alone as a legitimate threat to hang babies.

    A noose around an effigy is a threat to anyone who shares the ideas of the person who is in effigy. Those ideas may be good or evil but doing that publicly is threatening to those who share those ideas lol.

    But terroristic threats are threats against innocent people, who haven't done anything to anyone. Why does a Black doll baby need to be hung in effigy? That is a terroristic threat lol.

    You haven't explained how it is a threat - only said that it is.

    I say it's not a threat, because it doesn't show clear intent/could just be symbolic of their opinions, without any intent on acting on it.

    Well with their given history of actions, not opinion expressing, but noosing and lynching Blacks, that image is a terroristic threat.

    Some Muslim group in America making an effigy of airplanes crashing into buildings would be a terroristic threat, would it not lol?
