A Lesson in American Hypocrisy

California has the largest population of affirmed hate groups, mostly being "white power", KKK, and Neo-Nazi based..

And Los Angeles County, my home, has the most of any other place in the state, and nation...

Get Your Credit Cards Ready!

The KKK is out to reshape its image, and you to can take part in this "transformation" by sporting any of the "lovely" items produced in the good 'ol U.S. of A..

Terrorism within the United States remains something relegated to the backburner, something spoken of for a short period of time, labeled and marginalized as "quack"-work, and then largely forgotten...substituted with the "greater" danger that foreign terrorists pose...

Many of the images you see on this site can be purchased on t-shirts through a link on the KKK site that I have posted in the sources section of this article...and while I don't support the purchasing of their products, I hope that readers here can take the time to take a look at what wares are being sold, and what ideas are being expressed...

It is interesting, however, that the link from the KKK.com site is "Christian Books and Things."

Indeed.....

I suppose Osama Bin Ladin should be able to open up an online store called "Qurans and Stuff"......

While I am all about equal opportunity whether economically, socially, or politically, I do believe that there are limits...

If the KKK can market itself bringing a "A Message of Love NOT Hate!" (KKK.com in their own words and writing stylistics) than Al Qaeda should be able to sell their products, and claim that they are offer "A Path Towards the Brotherhood and Sisterhood of all Mankind!"

Right?

Well, I believe that both of these groups need to be treated the same way...and that KKK members need to be exposed and shamed, or killed by guided missiles, the same that other terrorist group members are......

It is time for equal treatment under the law.....

The Myth of the "New" KKK

What of Reality? (Warning: Some Graphic Imagery not for the Faint Hearted)

Contrary to the "friendly" imagery...the Ku Klux Klan has a real story..

Combat 18......You can buy their music and merchandise, which are very popular amongst American white supremacists...and if they can...why can't Al Qaeda?

I'm sure they will sell some products to some of the posters on HubPages.

Thanks for writing about this, pretty sad stuff.

BRAVO Mike! Unfortunately, there's a very fine and strong thread weaved so deeply and illusively in this country that most don't realize who or what exactly they're standing for when supporting certain State Reps., Governors, sheriffs, professors and on and on.

Funny to think that every single hater, whether it be of Jews, blacks, Native Americans, Asians, Latinos, etc..., has in their line of heritage one or more of those they are hating - it is an inescapable fact.

Thanks for this sardonic, yet truthful look into an American blight.

Actually, since it's worldwide, it's a societal blight...

This is the militia movement growing in America. It's all very scary. I don't even know what can be done to stop it. It's like people get drunk on hate.

Read "Camp of the Saints"....then you'll have some real fun...

I believe that those of us with more understanding minds can persevere, but we have to be ready, able, and willing to stand up for ourselves when push comes to shove..

I'm sorry the Combat 18 links are no longer working. If you search them out on Youtube and Google you will gain great perspective...they have quite and influence and connection with their American counterparts..

I particularly liked the pictures comparing Islamic terrorists with the dixicrat hoodie guys.

"Robert Byrd, democrat Sr. senator from WV." is the answer to your trivia question. Do I get a prize?

And NO, I don't want anything from the KKK shopping network.

Excellent hub.

Josh, thanks for outing yourself as a person who makes baseless assumptions without any information whatsoever.

Are you a fan of "Christian Books and Things"?
