If I wanted to get a soapbox and go to a park and preach about the apocolypse and the coming armegeddon i could. I might need to be sure I had the correct permits to do so but I could.
just because we allow gatherings does not mean we condone it. That is a huge fallacy you have going on there.

That is like me saying, "hey sin you help run a porn website so you must condone child porn." I know you do not but its all the same ballpark.
First of all I'm offended at your statement re: porn. I do not "help" run a porn site, I -do- run a porn site & any idiot in the adult industry will tell you that the people who are IN the adult industry who have BY FAR more access to the "online porn world" are the ones who report the CP that is out there. However, anybody who *isn't* in the porn industry probably doesnt' realize that, so that part of your statement I will acknowledge & take in fair stride.

Further, that particular group didn't get any permits at all, as was posted in another link... in this instance I am more inclined to believe CNN over the other links.

Preaching about the apocalypse & armageddon, is considerably different than you & a grouup of your friends walking around informing those around you that you a: are better than people who aren't of your skin color and therefore b: have more right to be there. That's what White supremacy is, which is what the original 2 links focused on the most. The CNN article did not & shed an entirely different light on the whole issue. While I still don't think that crime should be categorized & singled out by skin color, if the only gangs in the area are black skinned people, I suppose I can understand --its stuff like "black gang" crimes which perpetuate & breed racism amongst people
