Wait, what? Those things are a great threat to society! @syskatine, get in here. Why do these fools not know how dangerous those statues are? This is a priority! Our country is a barren racist land with those things out and about. Immediate removal (provided that they didn't renounce their Klanhood like Hillary's mentor Klan chapter founder Exalted Cyclops Robert Burning Cross Byrd) is paramount. Man the phones!

By the way @syskatine, this is good mockery. I've taken your screeching of the Party talking points, exaggerated them (only a little), and made you look even dumber. People will read this post thinking about how utterly dumb your screeching has been. And they'll chuckle and smile because they get it. It's similar, familiar, and anyone here (besides davidallen and that guy who isn't a former poster...lol) will easily relate it back to you.

That's how you mock, Rookie.

Don't have to have monuments to rally round, I remember during the Blues Brither the neo-Nazis were on a bridge.

You can watch dukes of Hazzard but the car had to be blurred out!

Not surprising twice as many democrats than republicans agree with the views of the klu klux klan.

The KKK was a democrat organization.

You're right! Build some more! If we leave the statutes then all racism will be eradicated! More statutes, they're working so well! A bond issue! We must have a bond issue to put them up and then all of our racism issues will go away and we can finally hold hands and live in harmony! To the phones!

Note the blending of confederate and nazi imagery. Why do these people borrow ideology and imagery from movements that lost wars?

1. Because they're simple minded morons
2. To provoke outrage
