    Hillary used confederate symbols in her 2008 campaign so I don't see what the big fuss is unless the Democrats are saying that Hill is a racist.

    ------>“The blood on my face, the blood in my teeth, the blood on my hands is no comparison to the Southern blood that runs through my veins----> “I’m gonna tell you one thing, I ain’t sitting down; this’ll just make me walk taller,” <------

    Pride of the Flesh...the Father turns his face from pride, but will hear the humble. This man is clearly self righteous and prideful. He cannot hear God and the Father does not hear him. There is clearly no personal relationship with Jesus. Out of the mouth the heart speaks. It's HIS blood, not Southern blood. It's deny yourself for Him, not States rights

    Out of the mouth the heart speaks
    :


    "The KKK also supports marriage between a man and a woman."

    "And their official flag is the flag of the United States."


    These are defensive statements, and attempts to justify at least part of the Ku Klux Klan's doctrine and image, making the plea: "At least they ain't homo's and they love the Stars n Stripes." So? They are murderers, plain and simple.

    Notice the focus of these statements are not at all concerned with other human beings. Some are brothers and sisters in Christ, who the KKK persecute, hang, burn, and murder. But they support gun rights.....

    There is a stark contrast between racists and their defenders, and what Jesus tells us, and Jesus is love:


    1 John 3
    10--->In this the children of God and the children of the devil are manifest: Whoever does not practice righteousness is not of God, nor is he who does not love his brother.......

    15---> Whoever hates his brother is a murderer, and you know that no murderer has eternal life abiding in him."

    1 John 1
    5---->This is the message which we have heard from Him and declare to you, that God is light and in Him is no darkness at all.

    6---->If we say that we have fellowship with Him, and walk in darkness, we lie and do not practice the truth.

    7----> But if we walk in the light as He is in the light, we have fellowship with one another, and the blood of Jesus Christ His Son cleanses us from all sin.

    John 12
    46--->I have come as a light into the world, that whoever believes in Me should not abide in darkness.

    47---> And if anyone hears My words and does not believe, I do not judge him; for I did not come to judge the world but to save the world.

    48---> He who rejects Me,(hates instead of loves) and does not receive My words, has that which judges him—the word that I have spoken will judge him in the last day

    Matthew 5
    21---> You have heard that it was said to those of old, ‘You shall not murder, and whoever murders will be in danger of the judgment.’

    22---> But I say to you that whoever is angry with his brother without a cause shall be in danger of the judgment.

    Mine was not a defensive statement. It was a comparative one. The rest of you self pious tripe will be written off.

    Your lack of understanding is monumental. Can't believe anybody with half a brain could get it so wrong.

    He's on a mission to assuage his guilt by calling me a racist. That's all I can figure. Poor guy. He's landed on planet silly.

    Reality Check:

    You have to go back 50 years to find any KKK killings of Blacks. That should tell us something. KKK has been denounced by every Christian denomination in the US and marginalized to the point of being irrelevant.

    There are on average 2000 gang related murders in the US every year. Most of these victims are African-American. Yes Black lives matter. And yet, people strut and condemn the Rebel flag, and think themselves righteous for having done so. Look to the real threats for Blacks. The Confederate battle flag has nothing to do it.

    Hillary in 2008 used the confederate flag to help her get elected. This year she has switched to the rainbow flag:

    Slow down and read what Jesus says:

    "Whoever hates his brother is a murderer...."

    No one hates as liberals/progressives do. They are out burning flags and flooding public property with their rainbow agenda. They want to burn books and tear down statues. They remind one of the Taliban.
