May 11, 201511 yr Are we sure they weren't advertising bed sheets at Linens and Things? :sssh: You know, like those crazy people dress up for tax offices to drum up business
May 11, 201511 yr Groups like this will grow during all the rioting and stuff, drums up a lot of fear, and hate in folks that normally dont like either.
May 11, 201511 yr With each generation that comes along, these types of groups will continue to become a smaller story. Their time has passed. Looking forward....not back.
May 11, 201511 yr And don't you need a bit more than 4-5 people to call something a rally? I do not know the definition of a rally, but that is not one.
May 11, 201511 yr And don't you need a bit more than 4-5 people to call something a rally? I do not know the definition of a rally, but that is not one. A few dozen, at a minimum.
May 11, 201511 yr I believe the national headquarters of the klan is based in Caldwell County. The Imperial Knights used to have a pretty good sized compound in Dawson Springs. I believe they lost the property in a lawsuit. But it wasn't the national headquarters as far as I know. There really isn't one. These groups, while calling themselves the KKK, are really separate groups.
May 11, 201511 yr I had mentioned this in an earlier thread. This group is just about done. Organized white hate groups are very small in America compared to the 50's and 60's. Im guessing this was the same group that came to Morehead a few weeks ago.
May 11, 201511 yr Author There's never a drive-by shooting around when you need one... Next year I was planning to sell eggs at the stop lights, lol. J/k
May 12, 201511 yr I'm not doubting that story, but why would they pick a random corner on Dixie Highway if they weren't local? Seems like they would go to a more popular area. Looks like they went to a place where they knew that that they wouldn't get physically assaulted, real cowardly. I don't know why they go where they do but they're a traveling group. They were lucky they didn't get assaulted on that corner to be honest. I know they had things thrown at them.
May 13, 201511 yr All they are doing is looking for attention. I was glad when i looked on my FB and Twitter and did not see anything about them. I do not believe it was in the news up here either. The Cincinnati Klan group use to put a cross up around Christmas on Fountain Square next to the Jewish menorah. they (the bedsheets people) would always make a big production of just so it would be on the news. i always thought they were dumb and served no purpose.
