Show Us Some Hate!

[WillowTree]

How would you classify the hate that some have for Palin? It's not skin tone, it's not ethnic, it could be I suppose religious yet how many know all that much about Sarah's beliefs? It couldn't be her continuous hate mongering utilizing proven lies, could it? It couldn't be her devisiveness, creating an America that is full of non-Americans just because they will not accept her ideas or behaviors? What do you think it is? As for the name calling it shows the same level of class as Sarah, none whatsoever. Ad hominem attacks have failed for what two solid years now in the political wars why should they work now?

Of course. If the left does it it's "freedom of" speech. If the right does it, it's "hate" speech.

Poor tastes ? yes



Racist like the effigy of Obama some guy lynched a few months back? NO

 

[Gunny]

what month is it again?

what's that upcoming holiday?

Which is relevant to what, exactly?

 

[xaxeptance449]

Now who was it that said that a nonresponse is indicative of the truth being told, realized and not responded to?

Bullshit. It's hate. Racism is a form of hate. Hating someone because of the color of their skin or some political affiliation/belief is all hating for the same thing -- someone is different than you.

You folk that love to play that race card should really try to think beyond just misusing the word and get to the part of what it means.

And effigy of Obama isn't racist just because Obama's black if the reason behind it is political hatred.

Pfft. She's too bust trotting around defining "democracy" for the board - she doesn't have time for that.

Yep! it's hate, if they had put Palin out front in a witches costume we could explain halloween. But hanging anyone even in jest is hate.

Would Amazon having an Obama Halloween Mask Listed As Terrorist Costume fit your description?

Or is this too difficult for you?

[strollingbones]

around here effigies flourish at halloween...big contests for best decorations...full on...coffins in yards etc...no stone left untouched and nothing is sacred. would anyone object to a joe biden effigy...i mean really?

 

[strollingbones]

Of course. If the left does it it's "freedom of" speech. If the right does it, it's "hate" speech.

have i accused anyone of hate speech...i think not...its halloween....get over it...do i go about objecting to all the witch displays? i think not.

I can see both sides of the argument and while I find it extremely distasteful, they do have the right to hang Palin in effigy. We are all well and good with hate in this country as long as it’s at an individual level. I don’t think the intent of hanging an effigy of Palin is racially motivated or sexually motivated (although it could be).

The reason that someone may be subject to hate speech issues by hanging Obama is that there is a long history of lynching blacks in America. If someone hated Obama and had the poor taste to represent his death in a Halloween display, might I suggest the guillotine, it would minimize the race hate element but still show your loathing for the candidate.

Just like Hanging Palin may be o.k. while depicting a sexual assault against her would not.
