    Do you have evidence Russia has actually influenced a single vote in the country? We both know you have none but nice try.

    I'm saying "Igor" that he left the KKK 60 years ago and disavowed them. I'm saying he's been dead for a while.

    I'm saying we don't need to hear what Russian trolls think

    Ku Klux Klan[edit]
    In the early 1940s, Byrd recruited 150 of his friends and associates to create a new chapter of the Ku Klux Klan in Sophia, West Virginia.[10][11]

    According to Byrd, a Klan official told him, "You have a talent for leadership, Bob ... The country needs young men like you in the leadership of the nation." Byrd later recalled, "Suddenly lights flashed in my mind! Someone important had recognized my abilities! I was only 23 or 24 years old, and the thought of a political career had never really hit me. But strike me that night, it did."[17] Byrd became a recruiter and leader of his chapter.[11]When it came time to elect the top officer (Exalted Cyclops) in the local Klan unit, Byrd won unanimously.[11]

    In December 1944, Byrd wrote to segregationist Mississippi Senator Theodore G. Bilbo:

    I shall never fight in the armed forces with a negro by my side ... Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.

    — Robert C. Byrd, in a letter to Sen. Theodore Bilbo (D-MS), 1944[11][18]
    In 1946, Byrd wrote a letter to a Grand Wizard stating, "The Klan is needed today as never before, and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia and in every state in the nation."[19] However, when running for the United States House of Representatives in 1952, he announced "After about a year, I became disinterested, quit paying my dues, and dropped my membership in the organization. During the nine years that have followed, I have never been interested in the Klan." He said he had joined the Klan because he felt it offered excitement and was anti-communist.[11]

    Byrd later called joining the KKK "the greatest mistake I ever made."[20] In 1997, he told an interviewer he would encourage young people to become involved in politics but also warned, "Be sure you avoid the Ku Klux Klan. Don't get that albatross around your neck. Once you've made that mistake, you inhibit your operations in the political arena."[21] In his last autobiography, Byrd explained that he was a KKK member because he "was sorely afflicted with tunnel vision—a jejune and immature outlook—seeing only what I wanted to see because I thought the Klan could provide an outlet for my talents and ambitions."[22] Byrd also said in 2005, "I know now I was wrong. Intolerance had no place in America. I apologized a thousand times ... and I don't mind apologizing over and over again. I can't erase what happened."[11]

    I am now saying you have ZERO credibility. You don't know truth.
    And now there's no reason to hold any honest debate with you.

    Why would a group he joined as a young adult and quit, be something to give a damn about?

    You forgot about the assassination of at least 8 police officers, dragging white people out of cars and beating them (Milwaukee), burning down local businesses wherever they protest (many of them black owned businesses), increasing the number of black deaths in some communities like Boston because the police are so terrified of being the next cop on the news that they are no longer doing active protection. This has directly led to more black kids being killed in Boston.

    I forgot nothing.

    Attributing any action by any black person to BLM is dishonest. Are you going to accept responsibility for the white couple that left the Bundy protest and assasinated the cops in Vegas?

    Or any of the thousands of hate crimes perpetrated by white people on people of color?

    no?

    Oh...

    Outside of the few people at the Bundy protest no one was calling for violence against officers. Meanwhile tens of thousand march for BLM and thousands of them don't just call for violence but commit it on large scales in cities where the protests are held. Point to a BLM protest and you will find violence and arson all over the place. We saw it in Chicago, Milwaukee, Washington DC and others. BLM is a organization of whiny little bitches that run around blaming police for all their problems but refuse to take any blame themselves. Its not their fault that blacks commit crimes at around 7 times any other race its all the police fault.


    They pretend to care about criminals getting shot by police but don't give one damn about blacks killing other blacks as seen by their reaction to the increase in homicides in Boston by the police pulling back. BLM applauded the reduced police activity even if it meant more murders of blacks by other blacks.

    At least the OP's title is only slightly askew. "Here's another mob" being a more accurate appraisal. Maybe Hildebeast et al. presume only liberal attack dogs will respond to their whistles? Anyway, MLK says it all very eloquently, particularly his reference to what scripture teaches.

    Sorry, but he was KKK all the way. When they join, they vow to always be KKK. Once KKK always KKK and Byrd was the mentor for Hillary. Both she and Slick Willie eulogized him at his funeral. Don't be disingenuous.

    You are being disingenuous. Around 30 Proud Boys were at a lecture in NY. About 50 ANTIFA showed up outside. They were yelling "Kill more Nazis." Some Proud Boys came out and Antifa took one of their MAGA hats. A fight ensued, and I guess ANTIFA got the worse of it. The article I read said that the Proud Boys were not arrested. Can YOU condemn ANTIFA or are you justifying their behavior? Why is the Left so hot and bothered over the word "mob"? That's what these groups are, you know.

    I'll condemn the violence. It's wrong ... no matter what Holders says about kicking. Good thing the speech wasn't held in Portland. The victims would still be getting stomped if they had to rely on Portland police to restore order.

    They are two sides of the same coin. I condemn them both.

    ANTIFA however sees itself as a bulwark against these creeps

    :roflol: No worries ... Zero chance liberal teachers unions will ever allow the DNC's checkered past to become part of student curriculum. A couple more generations of omission and revisions should wash away any remaing traces on blood stained hands like Robert Byrd's. Google will eventually remove all photographic evidence of the 1924 DNC Klanbake convention too. :;):

    All you have demonstrated is a complete ignorance of American political history. The RW still clings to the "the KKK was democrats" like a drowning man grabbing an anchor. Go get educated. Start by looking up "Dixiecrats." Truth isn't given to you on silver platter by Trump. Get busy.

    The answer to your question is No, a Progressive led by the nose via the Progressive Machine will rarely, if ever, admit they were duped.

    They will simply slip away and move on to promoting the next lie.

    Good post, thanks. In the Time Magazine dated Oct. 2nd, 2017, Philip Elliott wrote an article about how the democrat party is now at the same level of power as they were in 1929, and what they can do to change that. But obviously dems ignored that article to continue their current agenda.

    It was already well known throughout conservative media long before that article. The MSM is shades of Orwell's 1984.

    Let's START with the fact that you're "mob" consisted of 80 people from both sides and that both groups were there to confront each other.

    Hardly the "roving gangs and mobs" being portrayed in right wing media.

    And don't even TALK about "led by the nose" when you are doing exactly that by Trump

    Let's END the conversation with, . . .

    Dems want POWER, and they don't get power with mob actions!

    Unfortunately your definition of "mob" is peaceful protest (even if it is loud).

    When you talk about actual violence you're talking about events like what is mentioned in the OP...clashes between the violent extreme right and those who oppose them.

    Events that have nothing to do with "Dems wanting power" which actually refers to ELECTIONS not street violence

    Assaulting someone in a restaurant, in front of their home on private property, or in a work place, is not peaceful protest.

    The NDP is reeling from the publics response, and sending out the propaganda troops to try and change the extremely damaging messaging.

    In these "assaults"...was there physical confrontation?

    Or was it voters letting their representatives know how they feel about their performance...
