The mayor of an Alabama town has denounced a billboard with a racial message that appeared recently near Birmingham.
“Anti-racist is a code word for anti-white,” the billboard alongside I-20 reads.
“While this billboard is actually in Birmingham, the impression to passersby is that it is within our city limits,” Leeds Mayor David Miller said in a statement obtained by The Birmingham News. “The City of Leeds is a community with a long history of racial harmony, and wants to make it clear to all that it has no connection with this sign and categorically and unequivocally denounces the racist message portrayed on this billboard.”
According to the Southern Poverty Law Center (SPLC), the message originated in a 221-word Mantra written by white supremacist Robert Whitaker. The Mantra has inspired racial killings, including the 2011 deaths of 77 people in Norway.
The Mantra’s message — and the Alabama billboard — have been heavily promoted by Timothy Gallaher Murdock, who runs an online community for racists called White Rabbit Radio.
“The point of the message is when white people are called racist to give them something to say, something to say to defend themselves so they don’t just sit silently keep getting beaten over the head over and over again,” Murdock told WBRC on Monday. “You know everyone has come to the conclusion that racism is only in white countries, only in white people’s churches, houses and businesses, and white people are generally the only ones who face this charge generally on behalf of white anti-whites as well.”
The KKK threatening to "take back this land," protesters blocking roads to keep undocumented immigrants from entering their towns, and now racist slogans openly displayed on billboards as if they were ads for Burma Shave.
Is it just me or is there a particularly nasty pattern forming here?
Morality is not determined by the church you attend nor the faith you embrace. It is determined by the quality of your character and the positive impact you have on those you meet along your journey

Neo-Nazi starts buying up property in attempt to build all white racist utopia in North Dakota. Yeah, like anybody's going to notice in North Dakota.

While the economy in North Dakota has boomed in recent years due to the discovery of oil in the miles of shale beneath the state, business in Leith has been in decline for the better part of a century. So when officials in April 2012 noticed that one man was quickly buying up abandoned properties in what had become close to a ghost town high on the Great Plains, it was strange.
“I didn’t have a clue who the guy was until he showed up. All I know is he bought that house sight unseen, $5,000 cash, and had no idea what it looked like, where it was, other than he knew the directions to get to Leith,” Leith Mayor Ryan Schock, a farmer who has lived here all his life, told Hatewatch.
That strange man was Paul Craig Cobb, 61, a bearded neo-Nazi who moved into a ramshackle two-story house without running water, and quickly began buying properties around Leith, population 19. According to county tax records that were first obtained by Hatewatch, Cobb has since purchased more than a dozen lots for a few hundred dollars each, mostly from landowners who live elsewhere in the country.
Cobb’s endgame is clear. Last year, on the white supremacist online forum Vanguard News Network (VNN), he announced his intentions to build an all-white bastion of racists in North Dakota “post haste.” The grandiose plan ends with white supremacists and neo-Nazis taking over the county government, and he has even said he hopes to rename Leith “Cobbsville.”
Cobb’s plan in Leith is to build a Pioneer Little Europe –– an idea long favored on the racist right as a way to escape what is seen as a multiculturalist agenda at work in larger and more racially diverse cities. First proposed in a 2001 pamphlet by H. Michael Barrett, the vision is to consolidate white residents in existing cities and towns and create all-white enclaves. Northwestern states including Montana, Idaho, and now North Dakota, have historically been considered appealing places to start because of lack of racial diversity.
According to the most recent U.S. Census data, 90% of the population of North Dakota is white. That increases to 97% in Grant County, where Cobb has settled.
Already some of the most active white supremacists and neo-Nazi leaders in the country have come calling.
How cute, he's going to name it after himself. Why, was "Hitler's Asshole" already taken?
Color me confused, but if an area is already 97% white isn't that ALREADY an "all-white bastion?"
You know its people like this that make me regret my skin color.
Well at least now we know where to send Obama's atheist ACORN army next.

Young boy uses his innocent looks to make right wing racist rhetoric more palatable, but the only thing he accomplishes is to make us hate his parents.
Clearly this poor young man is reading from a script provided by his NRA card carrying, Grand Wizard of the KKK father who is too cowardly to show his face on camera.
This is why a public school education is so incredibly important, because you just know this kid is home schooled by two of the most ignorant individuals who ever got drunk and accidentally made a little racist together.
By the way who wants to bet me that this kids parents are HUGE Sarah Palin fans?
