1. Wow...
Whenever someone tries to tell me the Republicans/Tea Baggers/conservatives aren't racist, I'll point to this video.
They're really trying re-segregation? In the 21st century? In Obama's America? What would Martin Luther King Jr. think of this?
America has been too easy on the Tea Party, obviously. No more. We must stop (non-violently, of course) this cancer before it spreads and destroys us. NOW!

2. "We must stop (non-violently, of course) this cancer before it spreads and destroys us"
We must stop it if we want anything resembling the country we used to live in to survive.

Non-violence would be better.

But pacifism will just get us a theocratic, slavery-endorsing dictatorship.

If there was ever a war that America really needed to fight, it's this one.

They are the enemy.

3. Careful...
The media and far-right will go crazy over any Leftist call to violence in this country. Remember. There are different rules/standards for liberals and conservatives in the USA.
