Maybe this is a sign the tide is turning...sure the other 999 got lost in a car somewhere (pfft) but still what a joke when the KKK tried here to rally. Perhaps their incompetences will keep us safer...maybe they're more a danger to themselves...but then again racist idiots with guns are always to be watched.



What if They Gave a Klan Rally and Nobody Came?

"They really ought to call them the Ku Klutz Klan.

This Saturday, the Church of the National Knights of the Ku Klux Klan — a once-powerful organization that in 1960 coordinated more than 1,000 simultaneous cross burnings in a frightening display of Southern resistance to desegregation — held a rally in Gloverdale, S.C. It was attended by a single Klansman: state leader Tim Bradley.

Not making an appearance were the 1,000 people from four states that a confederate of Bradley’s had predicted. A promised speech never materialized, only endless rounds of Bradley giving interviews to local reporters while some 100 curiosity-seekers looked on. And the 30 or so Klansmen who Bradley said were headed to the rally that day? Well, they got lost on the way from North Carolina. Bradley kept telling reporters his comrades were about to arrive. But they never did.

Even the “rally” that did occur was something of a miracle. Earlier, the group planned to gather in a different location — but a local church had already reserved that park. Then, Bradley shifted the date in a bid to work out another location. Later, a local shopping center forbade the Klansmen from meeting prior to the rally in its parking lot, issuing a letter saying anyone there with “Ku Klux Klan, confederate, southern heritage or racist paraphernalia” would be arrested.

It was hardly the first time that the National Knights, a group that has developed a reputation as the Keystone Kops of white supremacy, was embarrassed. In 2001, protesters rained down debris on the heads of Klansmen after a rally outside South Bend, Ind. The retreating Klansmen had forgotten where they parked their cars.

A year later, in late 2002, National Knights Imperial Wizard Railton Loy held a “Christmas unity rally” on his son’s Osceola, Ind., farm. They had hoped to bring together different factions of the radical right but managed to forget that many of the attendees were adherents of the anti-Semitic theology of Christian Identity, which says whites are the real Hebrews of the Bible and therefore can’t eat pork. They served an undercooked roast pig, disgusting many of their horrified visitors. At the same gathering, visitors noticed that Loy’s son, Rick Loy, had a swollen lip and two missing front teeth. It turned out someone had given him a riot shield alleged to be bulletproof. The younger Loy put the matter to a test, firing a close-range shot at the shield. Unsurprisingly, a bullet fragment ricocheted off the shield and hit him in the mouth. Finally, attempts to burn a swastika and a cross at the rally ended in miserable failure; neither of the symbols wanted to stand up straight."

i have respect for nobody that has to hide behind a mask to kill.......

besides, if they do that, they're fair game. a high powered rifle shooting white things in the dark? sounds like a fun game. like shooting ducks at the fair, but more meaningful. i'd much rather meet them face to face, so they know who's ripping them slowly, limb from limb...

i guess i'm reverse-hate?

that's funny, they tried to come here about 10-12 years ago and were promptly pointed towards to I-10.

devils advocate,, but why dont they regroup and rename under some political, social, or religious interest,,,,,? They wont get very far keeping the old ways (and thats a good thing).

Im just saying , from a business point of view...a klansman in a suit not PROCLAIMING their klansmanship probably receives much more welcome(and collateral, and resources) than the old white sheet , hate blacky proclaiming types do in this era.


the military knows how its done,, wear camoflauge so you dont STAND OUT to your enemies,,,


please understand, I am ELATED They are failing so miserably but my mind is kind of all over the place today and was just taking a different perspective...

HEY! While everybody's enjoying their daily spoogefest over the Klan, how 'bout a li'l shoutout to a REAL Klansman who's IN THE SENATE right now ... ? HE's making LAWS ... !

I'm talkin' about givin' a big 'Howdy!' to none other than LIttle Bobby Byrd ... that's right, folks, 'Sheets' Byrd - the man famous for giving us 'Byrd Droppings' ... and let's not forget that the Klan was FOUNDED in INDIANA by DEMOCRATS. One more 'benefit' from the War of Northern Aggression. Do your research ...

LOL....does it matter where the KNIGHTS of the KKK began or who embraces it?

Nice of you to defend them...

Things must really be slow at the southern poverty law center..

It would have better served their purpose if they had said there were 5,000 tea party people there dressed up like the Einsatzgruppen..

Interesting that you know the name for the Nazi SS...

Very impressed!

Actually, the 'SS' is correctly known as the 'SchutzStaffel' (from whence cometh the iconic 'sigil' runes). And now, for your next trick, perhaps you can translate 'Leibstandarte' for us and put it in context ... ? We'll wait while you marshall your superior brainpower to impress us 'üntermenschen' ...

Perhaps you can also 'splain us the difference between 'Bolshevik' and 'Menschevik' and how the terms are polar opposites and politically ironic?

"Einsatzgruppen (German: Special-operation units) were SS paramilitary death squads that took part in the systematic killing of mostly civilians, including: Jews, communists, intellectuals, and others."

haha

LOL...caught you editing. Why again would progressive thinkers have anything to do with Nazi's?

No, that speak is usually on this site where white supremists gather.



How's the recruiting going?

KingsKnight are you a memeber of the Klan?? Just wondering?

You obviously have never encountered someone that studies military history.. lol

My best friends grandfather was in the Klan back in the day. His costume was actually made of silk.
I suppose these days those ignorant hillbillies just use the bedsheet off the clothesline. What an idiotic group they are. They almost make the skinheads look smart.

I am a US Marine...must have heard something along the way.

Funny, a few people here seem willing to reply here but not take a concrete stance...I think I smell something.

the fbi ,dea, local police , state police , atf , black robbers , mexican robbers , ect .. your a little short on something aren't you .. with your knowledge of the kkk makes me think YOU ARE ONE .

READ MY POST,,,,,I am NOT a Klansman or Klanswoman,,,,lol


just want to clear that up
