Oh yeah, and the American Family Association and Family Research Council are Hate Groups.
Even listed as hate groups!

LOL! Listed as a hate group by Nancy Pelosi and this current Administration?

PO - let me level with you! You seem to be so anti-Trump that it is becoming annoying!
lol
Trump can do a fine job of imploding his campaign without your help!
However, articles like the above make me (and probably others) put in the position of defending him.
Because, if people are so willing to go overboard to torpedo him, they must be terrified!

No, it does mean something.

It goes along with what I have been saying for a long time.

Ron Paul (knowingly but he says unknowingly) courted these same people.

They're cut from the same cloth.

And for those who laugh about "white genocide", just look at Zimbabwe and South Africa...

And by the way, I would most likely not be accepted by the white power groups.
Because I am not white enough.

Ok, how many people must be killed in order to be considered genocide?

While I am familiar with the actual land grabs that happened in Zimboland, I am unfamiliar with whites being killed by the millions, thousands, or even hundreds in the land of Zim.

There has been legitimate, hate-based, black on white crime in South Africa as well as other black on white crime that wasn't hate based, but opportunity based. However, the word "genocide" just isn't appropriate.

"White Genocide" gins up a murderous level of white victimhood that just doesn't match reality.

Remember the Tutsi's? That was genocide.

What's happening to the Yazidi's in Iraq and Syria? Probably genocide.

However, maybe I'll stand corrected with my assessment of Zimboland and South Africa?

5.4% of the population controlling 40% of the GDP??? Have you read the article to get a sense of the history and context of how things are so jacked up over there now?

Most of the whites left once the government did their land grabs to try to adjust what had happened in their country. While there was violence, most of the whites were not killed. This isn't a situation of GENOCIDE.

I am anti-Trump. I am terrified this bully will be our next President. I started out liking how he was hitting the Political Correctness, but as the campaign moved along, he has been very rude, coarse, belligerent and certainly childish. You can see all of that reading his Twitter account. It's like a 12-year old child took over. Pitiful and embarrassing. I don't want that for our country.

Besides, you planned on voting for him all along. That's why you don't like what I am posting.

Trump brings out the absolute worst in so many people!

Did you hear about how that he wants to kill the families of our enemies?

Of course, the crowd of GOP supporters present at the Trump event roared in approval!
