Scary..........

One of our neighbors who is a sheriff just asked us if we had all the essentials we would need for the next 3-4 days. He is going door to door in our neighborhood.

He said that if we didn't that he would suggest going and getting our tanks full and groceries so that we did not need to be out and about for the next few days with the election , COGIC  convention and with the KKK rally going on.

 

This is our first year out in the "holler" so I am slightly weirded out by his warning.

Re: Scary..........

  • Oh, that is weird.
  • Loading the player...
  • that is scary!  I would for sure go and get what I needed.  Stay safe! 
  • Um, YIKES.  I'd spend the next week at home after that warning.

    I'd be weirded out by the KKK rally, but what is the COGIC convention?

  • hmmm that doesn't sound kosher.

  • That is scary.  Do you have everything you need just in case?  Better safe than sorry?
  • dh has been saying this for quite some time now. We are prepared (just in case).
  • That would scare the sh*t out of me!
  • COGIC = Church of God in Christ, right?

    Not a coincidence that the KKK is rallying the same weekend. Disgusting.

    She's crafty - and she's just my type.
  • COGIC -the fastest growing African-American Pentecostal church in America.

    Yeah I doubt a coincidence at all. They declared a state of emergency for that this weekend.

  • That is scary.  I would be hauling my butt out of town.
  • We are in the year 2008, right?  Just proves how some things never change.

  • Oh my god.  That is so depressing.  Its hard for me to grasp the concept that the KKK is still around, much less they'd schedule a rally at the same time as a large black church would have a conference.  I'm sure it'll be doubley bad if Obama wins today.
  • okay to be fair.. it is called the European-American Unity and Rights Organization gathering.

    still scary.

  • Wow.  That is super scary.....

     

    It doesn't surprise me though...DH and I sometimes get comments etc. from people b/c *gasp* we are an inter-racial couple.  SAD.

  • Wow, that is pretty scary. Do you have any blue state friends you can seek refuge with?

    That's so sad=(   My friend who is white was told by her parents to tell everyone that her African American boyfriend was "just a friend" when they first started dating.  LAME.  I cannot believe how horrible people can be. 

  • OMG.  That is scary. 

    I remember when I was in high school we would see the KKK marching in a grocery store parking lot.  Scary shit.

    my second step dad was Filipino and my mom while Mexican/French looked white (red hair, green eyes) they would get really horrible things yelled at them. Sickening hearing people talk about your parents that way when you are 10.

  • I would be scared by that call too, but what is even scarier is the amount of ignorance out there that even makes this a "situation."
  • Just sayin' I do believe blue states have racism and KKK sects also.  They are not void of hate crimes....

    Anywho, I hope nothing happens Pin. 

    I think my DH is crazy, but he stocked our shelves the other night....LOL!

  • Stay safe pin!  That totally sucks.

    You can come up to Indiana and visit us... we know how to regulate on those KKK bastards.

    Shoot..I remember watching some history channel thing and KKK used to be (maybe still is) bad in parts of Indiana...Muncie specifically is what I remembered!   I'm sure its better now...all states are somewhat better, I think...but Indiana still scares me!!!

    Huh?  Because these types of things only happen in red states?  Riiiiight.

  • hmm....that is really scary and super ridiculous at the same time.

    Ridiculous because this type of crap happens...just plain stupid and moronic (it that is a word).
