Comments on: Two Men Arrested in Attack on Migrant Worker Camp

By Ask Mat about this, he knows on 07-14-08

This perfectly illustrates the incredibly intolerant attitiude some of our local boys seem to have.

I’m not surprised since Mat & friends get away with racist material on their website.

Remember Les Schwab, paid $185,000 for not stopping racial hatred in his tire shop.

Racism is alive and well in the Flathead.

Hey boys, won’t you be surprised when the men you chose to hassle have armed themselves and legally blow your stupid heads off .

The question is......are there any prosecuters with enough courage to prosecute these guys for a hate crime? Probably not and especially if the perps are from 3rd, 4th, 5th, or whatever generation Montanans who seem to have been created “more equal” than the rest of us.

This kind of racist attitude only serves to portray the ignorance and bigotry of those who don’t seem to know any better. Just like them to bring tire irons to a gun fight...no brains present there, obviously. I sincerely hope they do get their heads blown off the next time they pull that kind of idiotic stunt.

Mat who?

I have waited til the afternoon to comment, knowing that this article would bring out varied comments. First - don’t mistake for a moment that this is a ‘Marion’ issue. Unfortunatly - there are many bigoted people throughout Flathead Valley. The time has come to fully expose those that are hate mongers and those that view people of color with distaste and suspicion. With the on-going immigrant issue - being racist has again become politically correct. To suspect others if they ‘belong’ here - or are legal citizens - some take it upon themselves to interrogate or rid those that pose a threat to our ‘white makes right’ lifestyles - all under the guise of being an American and protecting ourselves. This has nothing to do with being ‘right wing’ or ‘left wing’ - racial tolerance - or intolerance is taught in homes and then forges out into how we interact in society. Unfortunately - Montana has the dubious reputation of being culturally retarded. We have a long long way to go before fully understanding and accepting racial diversity.

What kind of White Supremacist BS is that,Texe? I suppose you are either a KKK or Aryan Brotherhood member (or both). Go wear your bedsheet somewhere else, I hope you get arrested for a civil rights violation just like the jerks in Marion.

An above comment was deleted for advocating racial discrimination.

By Texe on 07-14-08

My prior response was taken down in less than 20 minutes..hmm. To continue my thoughts on this topic. I think we can all agree that certain streets in our fine land are dividing lines between the races. Yes, people, this is reality in America and shines light upon the futility of “hate crime” laws. Multiculturalism destroys everyone. Diversity breeds chaos. We humans are tribal and tend to associate with those that are similar to ourselves. However, certain persons would wish to destroy all nationalism and subjugate the world beneath the “chosen ones”. Whites in Montana will continue to increase actions toward preserving European Heritage. “Your laws”, and the evil intentions behind “your laws” are well understood and will not be tolerated.

It’s unfortunate that the comments “advocating racial discrimination” are being deleted. People need to know just how much racial intolerance exists in Montana, whether it be in the Flathead, the Bitteroot, the Blackfoot or many other areas.
Yes, Montana does have the dubious distinction of being culturally retarded.....Your own culture fails to grow without the influences of other cultures and racial diversity. Many seem to be content with that, and pass this attitude and fear of embracing new people and new ideas on to their children.
Having lived in numerous parts of the world, it always amazes me how much fear permeates the people of this state....fear of Blacks, Asians, Native Americans, Gays, Bears, Wolves.....the list goes on. It’s like brains and sense of values were frozen 100 years ago.

Wow, i’m honored you would even try to bring me into this mess. First of all, im not a rascist. Like i said, my girlfriend is black, which means i’m allowed to make fun of stuff like that. Its called comedy, not rascism. Now, if i was to call you a stupid cracker, and the point to me calling you a stupid cracker was to advocate hate, then yes, that would be rascist. But if i make a poster saying these colors dont run, and the stick figures that are hanging are black, because back in the day, people used to hang black people, and i’m simply making light of that, then thats comedy, not rascism. I’m not the one who used to own slaves, nor am i the one that used to hang them, so i have no guilt about it. I will however, continue to make fun of it, because its funny. Now if i said im going to hang all the black people, then that would be rascist. I have a feeling that no matter how i explain this, you will never get it, so i’ll just keep on making fun of everything, and you keep on getting upset about it. If you cant laugh at tragedy, then your living in a tragedy. Have a miserable life
Love ya!

I also am glad that the comment from Texe remains - because there is a large population here in the Flathead that refuse to acknowledge that blatant, aggressive bigotry exists. His comments allows others to peer into the dangerous ideations that float around us.

Montana has it’s own ‘culture’ - the wild west and wilderness lifestyle - many find that wholly appealing and romantic. But the levels of fear, suspicion, profiling are rising as more diversity arrives. It’s unfortunate and sad that comments like ‘diversity breeds chaos’ are listened to; when the true statement is ‘contempt breeds chaos’.

For the most part, kalispell is full of people who get very uncomfortable when they are near people that arent the same color as them. Its really sad, just because they have been sheltered from cultural for so long, now the valley is expanding and more races are coming here (not just to clean your hotel rooms, or pick your fruit crops, or to raise your children), but to try and make it just like the rest of us. People are ignorant, and ignorance is bliss, which amazes me that most of you are still miserable. No matter what your never satisfied. Oh well.

The plan and implementation of the destruction of the White, Christian, European community is well documented. People like jb cry racial discrimination and intolerance while “supposedly” embracing illegal alien Hispanics multiplying like rats, voting for politicians that replaced tariffs on foreign imports with trade imbalance “agreements” such as NAFTA/SPP and stealing land from your enemies.. You want everyone else to live in a third world cess pit, jb and others. Keep pushing your multiculturalism fools. We are not buying the malarky..the joke is on you. The French will never be Swedes and the Nigerian will never be Argentinian. Your new world order plans for one “people” controlled by “you” has been exposed. But of course, you are a stubborn and arrogant people and will keep selling your deception.. until you are thrown out as the Germans did in the thirties.

By Paulo on 07-14-08

Nancy are you on crack? Because no one could possibly be that ignorant.

By didjaknow on 07-14-08

Nancy poses a comparison - regarding French never being Swedes etc...but that is like comparing apples and potatoes. One is a fruit and one is a vegetable - in the UNITED STATES OF AMERICA - we are Americans - not divided by race, creed, religion etc - that is what our country is founded on. In America - there are many cultures and nationalities that define where are ancestors came from - thus giving us our heritage - names - hair color - nose size and on and on.

The rest of Nancy’s commentary is hate and suspicion - making her a little fruity...and Mat’s commentary - unfortunately is still racist although he is slow to see it.

In my immediate family are Swedes, Mexicans, Germans and Blacks - we DO NOT EVER make racist remarks and pass them off as comedy. To do so would be to show our children that others can mock their culture, heritage and whole being - all for the sake of a laugh - it’s not comedy - ever - it’s mean and shouldn’t be tolerated or allowed. Mat’s girlfriend is dating a man in a vegetated state.
