First and foremost  I want to say I do NOT agree with the burning of a cross supporter, I may not like Obama but  my reasons for not like him are not racial or skin color, but I DO feel that there are those that don't like  him because he is black.

But what someone did in the supporter of Obama who had a congratulations banner burned a cross in the yard.

I don't agree with the hate crimes, but I do wonder if this could be the trigger to bring out the KKK, and part of the forewarned crisis by Biden.

Is this it or will it be worse?

Again, I do not agree with the hate crimes, I'm throwing this out for discussion.

well i hope nothing happens but all I know is if he get assasinated, we are in trouble. There will be a lot of racial wars claiming he was killed because he was black.

You know I read today comparing him to JFK and I got to wondering if he would have attempted assassinations on his life...

I would hope we are a better nation than to fall back into racism.

I doubt it...but remember Obama is BIRACIAL...his mother was white and his father black.

Because Obama's father is from Kenya, is that a reason he should be hated, despised? One of my simplest of philosophies: "There are many tragedies in this world but the greatest tragedy is the one bred from ignorance." Ricky J. Fico

Jax is right, and that might be the reason some crazy would try to hurt him. I hope not. I do know that almost as soon as he decided to run, he asked for Secret Service protection. Normally, the Secret Service doesn't start protection untill about March or April of the election year. For him it started probably a year before that.

People are over-reacting

SERIOUSLY? That is like saying that if Joe Lieberman had been made president the Nazi's would come out.

I have often wondered this myself and from past things that have happened to myself as a young girl, I am actually scared some days.. and have had nightmares... I am not black nor do i have black ancestry. But I did live in a white town and I was the darkest person there, I constantly had to defend myself that I was not of any black descent as I feared for my life and that of my families.

Only time will tell.

I sincerely hope not, but, sadly, I think it's a distinct possibility. There are still some pretty active white supremists groups out there still. Never understood that.
