Why are people who call themselves “christians” burning the symbol of their religion. Its a bit like the Taliban having a Koran barbeque

Come on.
At least the KKK had funny hats.
If you’re gonna be racist at least do It in style.

(For those of you without brains I’m joking. I don’t condone any form of discriminating.)

Reading this article makes me wonder if the social aspect of mankinds journey through time hasn’t retarded by 40 years!

When I was a teenager the US was trying to grapple with the issues of civil rights and true justice and acceptance of blacks as equal to whites in society.

Then in 1969 when man landed on the Moon I thought…… thats it….. mankind has no excuses now. I thought if we as a species have the wherewithall to send men to the moon and home again then there can be no man made problem that we cannot solve! Little did I realise that we would find it easier to send people into space then live in harmony with each. What a shame.

i wonder what would happen if jesus (dark skinned, bearded, middle eastern) arrived at the rally and announced to his chosen people (white, deep south, rednecks) that he was back to save them all? how would that play out?

Don’t get me wrong, this lot are sickos. But why are they given the airtime on US television. It only helps further their cause. Take away their oxygen which is publicity. The animal kingdom is more civilised than this lot

Religion and extremism is a bad combination. We condem exrtemist muslims who fly planes into buildings and want to kill infidels who are’nt muslims, and they in turn hate Jews with a vengence because they have a wee book that tells them to do so. There’s always one lot who don’t like another lot, its usually got something to do with someone’s god telling them so, giving one lot a superiority complex.
Its complete and utter sh1te, we are all related, we are, every man woman and child on the planet genetically related and descended from an ape like ancestor. Nobody waved a magic wand, parted a sea or got jiggy in a fantasy garden, we are all descended from a common ancestor, so being racist towards a group based purely on skin colour or geography is complete lunacy. To do so because they don’t believe in the same magic being you do, well, even children grow up eventually.

Ah for fcuk sake, I just booked my flights an’ all

white supremicist christian groups are horribly ironic since Jesus was not white

It’s mad that stuff like this is still happening in so called the 1st world countries…

Alabama… I rest my case.

There are always people like this that want to live in the 18th century….

kkk-oo
same shit, different countries

Has the Oireachtas invited them to Dublin yet? Will Drew Nelson be there?

Yes Genius because that will solve everything, maybe then we’ll gas all the Jews for what they’re doing on the Gaza strip. Then it would all be solved once and for all. We could call it the final solution.

Thank God for atheism!

We’re all gods children…..except anyone different to our little group and ESPECIALLY if they aren’t White inbred rednecks who still believe someone who does homeopathy is a witch…..
But it don’t matter cause god will forgive them for absolutely anything they do just as long as they ask.

Amazing how it’s usually the most religious people who are also the most closed minded people

The burning of this cross has nothing to do with god, it has to do with racism, based on the colour of your skin, plain and simple.

Sounds like a script for a Night Shalthingy movie,

Pure mental.

Pastors …. Here we go again. Religious zealots are at it again.

I’m kinda pinkish with a few very dark freckles. Do I qualify or not?
I’ve never actually seen a “white” person……

White Anglo Saxon Protestant Bigots where have I seen that before ……..

Disgusting, they should all be ashamed of themselves

Land of the free my arse.

Do they really think Jesus is gonna come back when they keep putting up crucifixes to remind him of how he got murdered, then burning them lol wtf

Burning crosses why don’t they throw in hangings as well. Rednecks

how is this legal?

Why bring god into their intolerance freak show ‘there is neither slave nor free rich or poor black or white for we are all one under Christ ‘

All war and hate has its foundations in religion. Unfortunately this is the big bad world we live in.

Well said colm and Jewish thought they hated them too

“people who want it” ye cause you couldnt possible believe in god if your not white.. small narrow minded people ugggghhhh

Intolerant Fools… Now back to watching the BET Awards and reruns of the MOBOs :)

I agree with ya Paddy but judging by the Red thumbs. The KKK has a sect here too

You just don’t see good old fashioned fascist rallies like these anymore. (still waiting on the sarcasm button).nnAlso wondered what burning the cross meant?

Even God is smart enough to know that he doesn’t exist!

The human race is a joke

Religion is a symptom NOT a cause. Religion is a product of an unquestioning mind that has a high need to be right

Ban religion…End’s up the KKK would never exist….Every conflict for the last 2000+ years has had a religious issue behind it…!!!

If this religous crap was never put in place, we would have been a much more harmonious society…!!!

Was at this last year, was a great night the craic was 90,Free beer and got the shift.people all dressed up in white bed sheets,what more could ya ask for at a party?

Not one single one of you have brought up that fact that The Journal are posting this to get a hoot/rise/opinion/comment out of you all. This is ‘Media That You Love To Hate’, IMO, manipulating you, as much as I hate to say it, because I love a lot of The Journal’s reports. But there’s no need for this report, is there?? Thumbs down/up let’s here it.
We have our own race issues to be addressed in this country first, let’s unfortunately have to nip that in the bud first yeah?!?!

I ain’t sayin trollin but…..?

There is no place in our small world for petty race issues, get off the island, and explore as far away as possible.

I thought that Christians follow the teachings of Jesus Christ… How can they call themselves Christians ?

Well as soon as I get out of this haunted house and find out where the white women are at !!! I’m out of here !

Being given a platform to air their mentalness on state tv is as sinister as their… Bonfire?

I wonder did people in kkk pay there household charge, what ?

Gods law is being broken

Half the Yanks think that the world was created by a god sometime in the last 10,000 years.
What a benighted bunch!

Religion has a power over the people that we in this country should know. Jihad is a religious belief and we know what that can do. People die for their beliefs b it religious or something else.

The non whites?

So these lads reckon they are the ‘chosen’ people … They might have a problem with a certain nation in the middle east who also reckon they are the chosen people but receive international support for their efforts

Ww2 was based on expansion and extermination off the Jews . Trace back most conflicts or invasions and there basis is religion or a belief off some sort. We’re a mad lot I tell ya

Anyway those yanks have more branches off religion off every level it’s no wonder their half mad. But people’s beliefs are what there intitled to I suppose ……..
