Whats the difference between La Rasa and the KKK?

They are both racist groups but the KKK is fighting against La Raza.

If I had to pick the worst example of racism between the two, it's La Raza HANDS DOWN! Even their name is racist!

Nothing. If they were so much for Hispanics or Latinos, then they would be trying to get the border patrol agents freed instead of aiding them to get arrested and sent to prison FOR PROTECTING THE US. They would stop giving legal aid to those illegal aliens who have killed US citizens, cops and agents. Hypocrisy at it's best!

Not much but the color of the members and I'm not sure if the KKK was working towards overthrowing a government like LaRaza is. Maybe they were.....I wasn't a member and don't know for sure.

La Raza has government and big business funding, the KKK does not.
Discrimination I say. If the government is going to support one racist group then they should support them all.

The actual fact is it is a CRIME that the government supports and allows a racist group like La Raza and Mecha to operate at all

The color of the skin of the racist...

LaRaza receives government funding.

Which i think you are going to find out shortly is about to come to an abrupt end.

La Raza is Mexicans only, and the KKK is for whites only.

One's white, one's Hispanic.

I have to agree with you. I never thought I would see the day that a group of people would be considered worse than the K.K.K., But La Raza took their title away, they are infact the biggest group of RACIST in this Country.
And it sickens me to know that our Country does give funding to LA RAZA, and they receive support from the U.S. Marine Corp as well as many other Govt Departments, & U.S. Corporations, and Unions.
And still with all this backing LA RAZA won't help the Hispanic U.S. Border Agents who are currently falsely imprisoned. I thought LA RAZA was for the BETTERMENTof HISPANICS? Or maybe only for the betterment of the Hispanics who won't go against them and arrest their own people.
Just remember if you hear someone yell out "VIVA LA RAZA" they are NO better than a bunch of idiots in sheets burning Crosses in your front yard.

Spring loaded horsie

They actually are both of white decent....RAZA is a slavic term...in other words The Polish want their word back...it wasn't intended for Mexicans!

nuff

Klan members are more likely to be literate.

KKK is white racists who want to get rid of other races from their country. La Raza is hispanic racists who want to get rid of other races from what they mistakenly believe is their country.

one's white, the other is brown.

It is spelled La Raza. The differences are that the KKK is a hate group that targets non-whites and non-Christians while La Raza is a Hispanic Supremacist group that hates all non-Hispanics. The goal of La Raza is the creation of the state of Aztlan, an empire of the southwestern US states and Mexico. Our attorney general speedy Gonzales is a member. The goal of the KKK is to deport all non-white and non-Christians.

The tactics differ too. KKK burns crosses and disseminates hate mail, while La Raza burns American flags and disseminates pro-Hispanic literature. They both are a threat to our country, but La Raza is much bigger threat because it is accepted by the liberal media, it receives funding from American corporations, and it has chapters on hundreds of American college campuses. Even Lou Dobbs has had members of this traitorous organization on his show. Shame on you Lou (but I forgive him).

The worst of the Hispanic Supremacist groups is not Raza, or LULAC, or MALDEF, but MEChA. They are a very dangerous group whose emblem is an eagle with a stick of dynamite in one talon and a machete in the other. You can find out more about these groups at http://www.mayorno.com/
The current mayor of LA was a leading member of MEChA.

Very little, one has illiterate white people, the other has ignorant hispanics

None - both groups are pathetic.

These groups, along with the numerous others out there like the Black Panthers, IRA, PLO, and any others you can think of, are very similar in one respect. They all see that society is crumbling according to their standards, and believe that no one is there to stop the trend. Therefore, they must stick together to make sure that their way of thinking is preserved, as it is the right way.

Differences? La Rasa is much more of a political group than the KKK. They have been very open about what they are trying to do. And, while it still falls under the above description, the amount of violence associated to them is considerably less.

As for the organizing a murder, I have heard rumors (and thats all they were) that there have been a few killings along the border to allow people to cross through private property more freely. Whether it was La Rasa or it was random was never proven.

NoMoreMexicanBandido

Nothing!

SecretFriend

KKK ANCESTORS ACTUALLY CAME TO THIS COUNTRY AND TOOK EVERYTHING THAT WE HAD! loser. Read your history books! LA RAZA people were HERE FIRST!!!

La Raza has yet to organize murder.

They both think that through thier organization they can "try and better" those that look and think like they do.

I am assuming you mean "La Raza"... if you knew anything about either organization you would know what a ridiculous question you pose. Here,little one, let momma get you started on your political education:

http://www.nclr.org/
Check the above if you would like to really know what LaRaza is about

http://www.kkk.com/
Check the above if you would like a look at how they view themselves.

http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Ku_Klux_Klan
Check the above if you want to know what they REALLY are.

When you are done, write a 500 word essay, single spaced on the major differences between the two organizations.

HMMMMMM????

La Raza is not racist. I think that they're just an organization that like any other. KKK killed a bunch of people. La Raza means the race, and whomever thinks the name sounds racist, just needs to look up the word.!
