It's getting insane.
If a white person is protesting for their 1st and 2nd Amendment rights, then that is not racist.
They're making it to the point where if you are a Constitutionalist, you are racist. And this is not new, or recent. They've been at it for years.
Sure they are Constitutionalists, but a white guy doing the same is a racist.

Anyone travelling to Africa, Asia or even Europe knows that full well those two groups are the main reason America is still racist. You can keep protecting them all you want, makes no difference on what you say that is why America is a divided country. Even neighbour up North don't have these moronic groups causing racist fights.

Weren't the swastikas on signs implying the government are fascists, and acting like nazis? Is it possible the legislator was too dumb to understand it? Either that or just a really over-confident spin doctor. Anyone should be able to see thru this.

I have to disagree with you here, those two groups are not the reason racism is still prevalent, but the unwillingness of a significant part of the white population to see Blacks and others as equal participants in this nation, America could have dealth with this issue as far back as it's official split from the British empire, they wrote a brilliant document, but failed to live up to it.
The 2nd great chance, was following the closing of the uncivil war and the era of reconstruction, thwarted by racist reactionaries for another 90 yrs rolling back 12 yrs of progress and promise, through the terror of the Klan, over turning laws that guaranteed rights of the recently enfranchised and enacting the Black Codes.
other possibilities included post WWI and WWII, especially WWII if the G.I bill was not subjected to tampering by racist reactionaries through redlining, so here we are push backs and setbacks the constant
struggle, the new Nazis and the old Klan is simply an open manifestation of it , not the cause.

Don't wave the Confederate flag at a protest and no one will call you racist. Not that hard.

You read and not even comprehend both what you quoted from me and text books in general.
btw stop making it look like the Blacks on the western side if the Atlantic did not took up their own fight for liberation from both within or outside of the confines of the U.S..you get a clue!
And if you think I'm one to shy away from the subject matter of African or African American involvement in industrial Slavery, then you missed my thread on it some time back.

Black white, slavery was destroyed in Western society starting in the 1800's. That anyone talks like people in America look down on others for skin color is wrong. It is about right and wrong and we are color blind as to whom is right or wrong. THAT is how Dr Martin Luther King believed and I do too.
Its a fringe/wedge issues for insecure losers who have nothing better to do than obsess about their "identity" which garbage liberal media (the actual racists) have conned them into believing somehow matters
