We all talk about terroisim , but think about it , these hate groups are just that. They are allowed to spew hatered anywhere they choose and its their constatutional right.
I think The KKK, skinheads and other such groups should be labled as terrorists before anymore people get hurt. These groups go so far as to tell others that all Jews, Native Americans, Asian, ect. should be wiped out because they are not of the Arian race, they make me sick. They need to be locked up where they can not spew thier hatred.

it's intersting to note that the shooter was himself "non-aryan"- he was Native American.

this young man frequented another on-line community that i belong to- i found and read his profile, and his short bio read "I'm nothin' but a Native American, nothin' but a Native American".

that self-disparity made me want to cry, and suddenly i felt bad for this kid. in an interview with other people on the Red Lake Reservation, teachers voiced the reality that many Native youths feel so out of touch with their heritage, they often imitate hip-hop culture, goth culture, etc. as a way to have some kind of group to feel in with. it's probable that his interest in Neo-Nazi stuff was a way for him to reach out to a culture (albeit one of hatred and violence) where he could feel some connection to something bigger than himself.

i don't know what to think of Jeff Weise... i got through high school. usually i hated it, hated the people there, and in the back of my mind hoped that someone would blow the place up. but my troubles in high school are not the same ones Jeff faced. i don't feel like i ought to judge him, and i don't want to judge him, either. i just don't know what to think.

I could never figure out what "aryan" is, some people say blonde & blue, and some people say the people from India are aryan. And then there's others saying the aryans evolved from the Indians or something like that.
