From what I understand its a pretty common practice to hire people to "protest".

Here is a pic from another site. This was from the LARGE protest.. Even the media gets trolled..
What are you trying to show? How few neo nazi, white supremacist and KKK members there actually are in America? If that's all the participation they can get after months of planning, are normal, sane, civilized people suppose to believe the hype that there is a rise in their membership as the media portrays and that minorities should be fearful?
It's hard to get actual numbers for supremacy groups but let say it is 50,000 (which is about double what most experts assume). The population of the USA is 320 million so white supremacy membership would make up 0.015% of the populqtion.
Fringe extremes will always exist on both sides. This is nothing but a mob mentality being fed by a media frenzy.
"No to GMO's"?? How the heck did that get in there?
Maybe GMO stands for something else now?
I've studied them pretty closely, it's as cut and dry as Pearl Harbor. You can make excuses for war but only one party can be guilty of firing the first shot. Trying to glorify a war to preserve slavery is just as ridiculous as the Germans trying to justify the Holocaust. You can explain the horror but you can't justify it. The German government doesn't attempt to justify the Nazi's, we shouldn't either.
Comparing slavery to the halocaust is apples to oranges. It wasn't right, but millions weren't starved then killed just because.
Camp Sumter was a Confederate Prisoner-of-War Camp for Union soldiers, today a historic site located in Andersonville, Georgia, from which the prison derives its more well known name. Its conditions were little known from its opening in February 1864 until it was liberated in May 1865, one month after Lincoln was assassinated. When the mistreatment of prisoners came to light, the entire nation and even Europe were disgusted and dumbfounded by the photographs of horrifically emaciated prisoners who somehow found the strength to survive.
The prison covered 25 and a half acres east of Andersonville, and was nothing but a bare patch of land surrounded by woods and fenced in twice. The outer fence was a log palisade 1,620 feet by 779 feet, with two entrances in the west wall leading into town. 19 feet in from this palisade stood an inner fence of chest-high posts topped with single crossbeams. This was nicknamed the dead line. Anyone who tried to cross it for the outer palisade, or even touched it, was shot without warning.
Inside the camp, there were only eight small buildings that could house a total of about 100 men. The prison held 45,000 by the end of the war. Most were given tents in which to sit or sleep, but the Georgia summer was overwhelming. 13,000 of those men died within 7 months of summer incarceration from sunstroke, starvation, or disease. The entire prison population suffered from a hookworm epidemic, causing most of them to defecate bloody diarrhea filled with worms. Scurvy was also rampant, prisoners were able to pull out their own teeth with their fingers because of vitamin C deficiency. 3,000 died per month, or 100 per day.
The Holocaust estimated deaths were 6-9 million. Slave trade was 10-50 million, the wider range due to poor data and record keeping. Both are horrible and cruel. Many Holocaust victims were used for forced labor and died from starvation and disease along with the mass murders. The American slave trade involved torture, rape, disease and murder. Saying one was "better" than the other is splitting hairs in a sadistic manner.
Mans Inhumanity to his fellow man is boundless as History so aptly shows. Our remembering it won't change the past nor the future, unfortunately.
Humans are flawed creations.
