Was shot at by National Alliance for objecting and opposing their views while not in the presence of any African Americans. Returned fire. They were later all arrested for possesion of firearms in a house owned by a felon. Leader imprisoned.

3) Been in the presence of ignorant remarks and beliefs of both the National Alliance and KKK.

Had a lit redneck tell a bartender not to serve the n***** two chairs down from him in a bar in Gainesville. The single tear down the 65-70 years old black man's cheek was more than enough for me to confront the white guy...soon to realize it wasn't his lucky day.

Watched a redneck taunt two drunk latino's at Startime in Roswell for a good 30 minutes, who preceded to follow one into the rest room. After being called every imagineable word for mexican and then threatening him he found himself with 1/2 a dozen stab wounds. Ever see blood smeared all over every single wall in a room before? Drunk Latino 1 Redneck 0.



I feel fortunate i've never had to deal true civil rights hate crimes: hangings, draggings, stonings, etc. I honestly don't know how I would deal with it...it simply doesn't make sense to me. The most i've experienced isn't really out of hate as much as just plain ignorance...i've seen more black on black gang and female related violance, shootings, etc. than true racial hate crimes.
