I took you up on your invitation to look at the website. Ray is the state chairman for Georgia.

Please explain how this comparison to anyone who is black, not a Christian, or a supporter of the league of the south is not a member “government sponsored victim group?” It’s very poorly written if that is not it’s intent. I would have wrote something like, “laws should be based on individual responsibility and consequences of actions. We do not see any citizen in terms of race, regardless of if they are black, white, or other.” But then again, I wouldn’t join a group that has a primary purpose of seceding from the USA.

“Q: What is the LS position regarding blacks in the South?
A: The LS disavows a spirit of malice and extends an offer of good will and cooperation to Southern blacks in areas where we can work together as Christians to make life better for all people in the South. We affirm that, while historically the interests of Southern blacks and whites have been in part antagonistic, true Constitutional government would provide protection to all law-abiding citizens — not just to government-sponsored victim groups. “

What is supposedly so scandalous about the League website? (www.dixienet.org) I am well aware of the site. We blogroll to it at my blog. I blogged about my attendance at the annual League National Convention earlier this year.

I more than welcome people to check out the site.

And, as a favor, jump to the bottom for any additional comments. This arguing 50 comments apart from top to bottom is getting more annoying than the subject matter.

The current leadership of the League of the South include:

Michael Hill, Jack Kershaw, Ray McBerry, Franklin Sanders, Rev. Eugene Cas, Mark Thomey, and Mike Tuggle.

Here is a link to a story about Michael Hill where he is quoted as saying:
http://www.splcenter.org/intel/intelreport/article.jsp?aid=250

“Moreover, it is time we demand that respectable members of the ‘minority community’ control their debased ‘brothers and sisters.’ If they refuse, then we can only believe that they secretly condone such behavior. Let us not flinch when our enemies call us ‘racists’; rather, just reply with, ‘So, what’s your point?’”

Read the full article, it’s a laugh riot.

Further, look up some of the quotes that these notorious men has plastered about the internet, and tell me that this is not the Klan rebranding itself. Further, look at the League of the South website. Unfortunately, the PP in with too many links, so I will let the reader do his own research.

If you support this crap, Red, any respect that I have for you is long gone, and you need to expand the size of the eyehole in your sheet and take a look at what is really going on around you.

Men full of hatred for those around them have no place in my world.

And Doug I am sad to see that you played the “white hood” card. The first refuge of an “anti-extremist” (for lack of a better term) is to go PC and accuse the opposition of wrong think.

GOPGeorgia, this is why we need divided sovereignty. This is what the voluntary union the Founders left us provided. So the sovereigns check each other. The Union that Lincoln left us by force of arms established a unitary sovereign.

Doug, treason is a CAPITAL offense. Perhaps before you accuse someone of it you should back up your case with historical evidence. Make the historical case that nullification, interposition and secession were not options left open to the States by the Founders or else you are just ranting.

By the way, if there are only 5 or 6 of us, why do you even care?

Good point, I do not care about the chances of this weirdo extremist getting elected governor. I do care about that you guys have decided to take off the white hoods and operate under a new name, but other than that, good luck.

Thanks for the clarification. The states do have a roll to play, but it is smaller unless there is a new constitutional convention; which I consider a nuclear option. States ratify amendments, but I can’t quickly think of a case other than Alabama and the ten commandments where a state told the federal government it was wrong and the federal government backed off. And that changed with a new Gov. of Alabama. We need a system that works regardless of which party or person is in power.

I, like many others, do consider ourselves to be Georgians first. This is what the Founding Fathers intended. But again, you probably don’t care about that or that old document the Constitution.

By the way, if there are only 5 or 6 of us, why do you even care?

I did not say that the discussion of nullification or any other topic was treason. I was saying that the discussion of secession and then taking action to achieve that goal (running for governor) is conspiracy to commit treason.

The actually act of making war against the US is the treasonable act. Siezing Federal property by force is such an act, and if the Christ figure you follow goes that route, I hope he rots in a Federal prison with the rest of his supporters.

Luckily for him, and doubly lucky for his supports, the people of Georgia recognize crazy and 2% in a crowded primary, maybe 5% in a less crowded one is about the best this smiling zealot can hope for.

You can also look to Federalist 78, written by Alexander Hamilton. Judicial review was a very ingrained part of the understanding of the judiciary at the time. These modern day revisionists do nothing more than spit on the founding father’s grave.
