    It is a story I have seen all over the national media, twin blonde-blue-eyed teenage girls, 13 or 14, who have records and do concerts promoting white supremacy. They are homeschooled, in California, by white-supremacist parents.

    I haven't seen these girls specifically, and, don't need or care to, but, I did see a program once on tv about a community that held those beliefs and they had little toddlers performing and singing about it. And, it was just scary to hear what they thought about things. I don't know that I have a problem with them feeling how they feel (even though I completely feel as opposite as you can get), but, I just wonder if it will ever be commonplace and out in the open, and, how many crimes are committed because of those beliefs. It makes me so sad to think that there are so many people that share those beliefs. I don't have a problem with not wanting to marry and have children with someone who isn't within your race, even though I'd marry any race if I fell in love with them. And, expressing your opinion is one thing, but, telling other people that their's is wrong is wrong. And, I wonder how polite they are when expressing their opinion, and, how vocal and/or physical they are about it. Blech, this is such a touchy subject, I just hope it doesn't get a lot bigger than it is, but, I have a bad feeling it will. My quote in my signature speaks loud and clear...The idea that some lives matter less is the root of all that is wrong with the world.

    So sad. I can't understand racism, and I guess I never will. The fact that anyone thinks that they are better than anyone else makes me so

    Was this the segment about the white supremicist twins that sing racist songs??? I saw that. That's despicable. Those parents should have those kids taken away!!

    A "home-schooling stay-at-home mom" who is no longer living with the father of the two girls.

    On what does she live??????

    And what is so special about being white anyway? I can't stand racists. There's no difference between people of different skin color. Sheesh. We're all human beings, all have the same feelings, and are all equal no matter what our color. I totally can't stand racists. What if THEY were born into a family of another color? Is being white something THEY decided at birth? Ugh...I hate such individuals. I hate them.

    I agree that this is sick and I feel sorry for the two young girls, but fortunately - or unfortunately depending on how you see it - we live in a free country where we are free to teach our kids our values, whether the rest of the country agrees with them or not.

    The thing I hate the most about hate and racism is when you see these values passed on to the kids. These kids are blank slates when they are born and learn their values from those around them. Hopefully, as these girls mature, they will see the error of their ways. In the meantime, it's up to the rest of us to make sure that our kids (or those we come in contact with for those of us who don't have kids) learn how wrong hate and racism is.

    I feel like cocker_luva that hatred and racism is a waste of time. Just think of all the good that could be done in the world if all that hate was redirected. It's sad, just sad, but they do have the right to believe what they do.

    **Edit** PS - Sara, good to see you in the Dog House again.

    These sad, misguided folks probably think of themselves as Christians too.

    Liz,

    Hold onto your socks......

    For a change I agree with you. In the army, racism is not allowed to rear its ugly head, and when it does, it is eliminated as soon as possible. If you are a member of an extremist group and it comes up in a background check you are liable to be discharged immediately unless your commander thinks there's a damned good reason to keep you around.

    Last time I checked, it's less than one percent of the genome that separates us. There's only one race, the human race, and we're all the same damned color on the inside.
