Whats wrong A5, you can't keep up? You sound bitter again. Are you regressing into talking about me instead of the issue again! LOL

Did you read the Truth and Reconciliation report and the MMIW report yet? A lot of the answers about FN you seek, are found in both reports.

Flea has already admitted that treating everyone with the respect regardless of skin colour and ethnic origin, religion etc..has not negatively affected him. How about you?

No, just offering some helpful advice, that if you want to earn credibility ( just like suggested in another thread regarding respect, both have to be earned), not running away from uncomfortable questions every time they come up, would work wonders.

If you don't think that credibility is important, then carry on as is, but you are investing a massive amount of time for absolutely no results. The ROI on your efforts is not good. Perhaps quality over quantity would be a better approach. Finish one issue before moving on to another. Almost every other thread has someone asking you for an answer, and instead, you start another thread on another topic, rather than support your argument.

Not all of us are dead set in our ways, and cannot be convinced if presented with facts that contradict our biases. You throw out some baseless insinuations, then, instead of defending them when we question them, you throw out some insults and childish name calling, then run away and start a new thread. If you think that you have the not only the moral high ground, but also the facts on your side, then stick with it, and defend your position. You might yet make some converts to your way of thinking.

The KKK is a total extremist group . To bring that up up here on Agriville insinuating farmers on here is absolutely ridiculous and sad
Antifa is actually more extreme and more relevant today because they are causing more grief in the US right now than any other single “group”
Antifa is real , and a serious threat to society, look at Seattle, and many other cities in the US .
The people causing all the shiti the US are certainly not farmers , most likely 99% urban extremists left and right .
To again try to label farmers as KKK or whatever label is a seriously flawed and ignorant thing
But you are doing it daily .
Like calling virtually all us farmers here on Agriville and for the most part everyone other far left farmers racists is sooo wrong it’s on the verge of defamation. You need to tone it down
It’s wrong period
It’s just because we don’t accept 100% of you idealistic world chuck and you are the problem

Excellent post Furrow.
And then Chuck goes on a rant about other people making broad generalizations.

KKK, Democrats/leftist/liberals...

KKK, Democrats/leftist/liberals...

Well if by your logic the KKK are democrats/leftist/liberals in the states because of history, then you must also believe that Saskatchewan Conservatives are the foundation of KKK in Canada. From Wikipedia:

One of the most prominent groups was the Ku Klux Klan of Kanada, whose main principles of white supremacy and nationalism required members to pledge that they were white, gentile, and Protestant.[11] Organizers stated that the Ku Klux Klan was a Christian organization with "first allegiance to Canada and the Union Jack", disqualifying Jews from membership because they are not Christian, and Roman Catholics because their first allegiance is to the Pope in Rome.[14]

Although the KKK operated throughout Canada, it was most successful in Saskatchewan, where by the late 1920s its membership was over 25,000.[11] Historian Allan Bartley states that this success was a result of opposition to liberal Government of Saskatchewan policy established by the entrenched Saskatchewan Liberal Party, which had held power in the province since its inception in 1905.[11]

NO I do not believe it...maybe those were the future CCF'ers? Tommy people...

Interesting that you can post a few pictures and statements that seem to tie Democrats to the KKK yet when I post documentation tying the KKK to Saskatchewan Conservatives from the same time period you refuse to believe it. Maybe I just never gave enough information. Here is some more information about the link from the same article:

"In 1926, American Ku Klux Klan organizers Hugh Finlay Emmons and Lewis A. Scott from Indiana established a Klan organization in Saskatchewan.[16] They spent most of early 1927 travelling throughout the province, establishing local Klan branches and selling memberships for C$13 per individual.[19] They also spread Klan propaganda and burned crosses, and in July and August 1927 they made another tour of the province.[19]

Soon after, they fled Saskatchewan with the funds they had raised, leaving the Ku Klux Klan floundering.[19] Hawkins and John James Maloney, a seminarian from Hamilton who denounced Romanism, moved to Saskatchewan to revive the organization.[19][20] Under his leadership, the organization raised over C$50,000 in membership fees and claimed to have registered over 70,000 members.[19] Fees were set at $15 per member annually.[21] Many of its members were supporters of the Conservative Party of Saskatchewan frustrated with the success of the Liberal Party as a result of strong support from Catholics.[22]

All our troubles, all the sedition, plotting and plans against the national school system are hatched in Quebec.
—Reverend S. P. Rondeau, 10 January 1929[23]
Under the leadership of Hawkins and Maloney, the Klan became increasingly anti-Catholic and anti-French, and campaigned against the separate school system[19] with the slogan "one nation, one flag, one language, one school".[24] They opposed "crucifixes on public school walls, nuns teaching in public schools, and the teaching of French in public schools", blaming these issues on Quebec.[25] (The Constitution Act, 1867 guaranteed provincial rights to education and language, protecting minority rights, including those of Catholics and French-speaking citizens.) At a meeting of the Ku Klux Klan on 10 January 1929 at the Regent Hall in Saskatoon, reverend S.P. Rondeau stated that Quebec was attempting to establish Saskatchewan as a second French-speaking province.[23] Newly founded local chapters would announce their presence to the community with a ritual cross burning.[26
from https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku_Klux_Klan_in_Canada

Or consider this from another site:
About 70 years ago the Ku Klux Klan was Saskatchewan's largest organization besides the Saskatchewan Wheat Pool. Saskatchewan had over 10,000 Klan members in the late 1920's. The KKK targeted the Catholics, Jewish, French, Chinese, Metis and African Americans. Klan members believed in white supremacy, that whites are better than any other race. In Saskatchewan it was mainly catholics and first nations because African Americans and the Chinese weren't established here at the time. The Klan was so big back then that they put ads in newspapers to recruit more klansmen.

The Conservatives were the opposition in Saskatchewan at the time. They had members that were part of the Klan. James Gardiner, Premier of Saskatchewan at the time, was against the KKK and fought back. After the Conservatives no longer had any power, the Klan started to die out.

Oh Fjlip: There are lots of pictures on this site too but I refuse to post those to glorify Klan activities so if you want to see Klan pictures in Saskatchewan you will have to look them up yourself

A5 do you think I really care if you think I am credible? LOL.

When you are losing you seem to switch to talking about me. That's a sure sign you don't have much to say about the subject.

I did ask how are all these changes and concerns and awareness about racism are affecting you negatively? No answer. Flea was honest. What's your excuse?

When marginalized people subject to racism make gains, there has always been push back from those who are resistant to change. Many Agriville posters are pushing back.

One lesson from history is no nation is immune from hate groups. Far right extremist groups pose a danger and with Trump spouting hate and division, its even more important to stand up against those who would take us back down an ugly path.

"Far right extremist groups pose a danger and with Trump spouting hate and division, its even more important to stand up against those who would take us back down an ugly path".

Far left extremist groups pose a danger and with SJWs spouting hate and division, it's even more important to stand up against those who would take us back down an ugly path.
