Angry Clashes In South Carolina As Ku Klux Klan

By Mia de Graaf , July 18, 2015 Daily Mail

Angry clashes have erupted between members of the Ku Klux Klan and the New Black Panther Party as both groups rally at the South Carolina statehouse.

Confederate flags were stolen and ripped up to cheers and applause from the New Black Panther demonstrators - while KKK members stood on the steps of the capitol performing Nazi salutes.

The white supremacists came out in force on Saturday afternoon to condemn the governor's decision to remove the Confederate Flag due to its associations with racial hatred.

Countering their demonstration, around 400 people with links to the New Black Panther Party marched in the name of racial equality - calling on politicians to do more than simply bring down a flag.

"One sign references the KKK"

Black Suspect Arrested After Racist Message Discovered Outside Predominately Black Church

CBS Denver, Jun. 30, 2015

COLORADO SPRINGS, Colo. (CBS4)– A Colorado Springs man was arrested after police believe he left racist messages outside a church.

Vincent Broughton, 44, who is black, is facing charges for committed a bias-motivated crime and disorderly conduct.

The signs were posted outside the New Covenant church that is predominately attended by African Americans. One sign references the KKK. Another reads, “Black men beware, you are the target.”

The messages had the congregation on edge.

“We locked our doors this morning, so we were inside, but it shouldn’t be that way. You shouldn’t have to lock your doors in the church, it’s just… I’m speechless,” said Pastor Roland Joyner.

Police said Broughton admitted to posting the flyers but did not explain why he targeted the church.

Seventh Black Church Burns In South Since Charleston Church Shooting

By CBS, Jul. 1, 2015

COLUMBIA, S.C. (CBS Atlanta/AP) — A federal law enforcement source says a fire that destroyed a black church in South Carolina was not the work of an arsonist.


The source says preliminary indications are that the fire at the Mount Zion African Methodist Episcopal Church in Greeleyville, 50 miles north of Charleston, was not intentionally set and was not arson. The official spoke on the condition of anonymity because he was not authorized to discuss the case publicly. The source says the fire is still under investigation.

The fire comes 20 years after the Ku Klux Klan burned it down.

KKK Threatens Ferguson Protesters, ‘Anonymous’ Responds By Allegedly IDing Klan Members

By Fox News, Nov. 16, 2014

FERGUSON, MO - After a Ku Klux Klan group in Missouri released a flyer that threatened to use ‘lethal force’ on Ferguson protesters, members of the hacker group Anonymous have declared ‘Cyber Warfare’ on the KKK.

In an interview with the River Front Times, the leader of the KKK group described Ferguson protesters as “the best recruiters since Obama,” and described them as terrorists, not protesters.

Just days before, a neighborhood in Fenton, Missouri woke up to find KKK flyers in their driveways offering neighborhood watch security.

A flyer released by the KKK

The flyer released by the Ku Klux Klan directly addressed the protesters and wrote “You have awakened a sleeping giant,” and went on to add “We will use lethal force as provided under Missouri Law to defend ourselves.”

After KKK released this flyer, members of the worldwide hacker group released a YouTube video along with a written statement. “The aim of our operation is nothing more than Cyber Warfare,” read the group’s YouTube comment. “Anything you upload will be taken down, anything you use to promote the KKK will be shut down.”

Oops, forget hubby's a bigot

Democratic Judicial Candidate's Husband Is A White Supremacist

By Gideon Resnick, Aug. 11, 2014, Thedailybeast.com

The husband of a Democratic candidate running for a judicial seat in Connecticut has just made things very difficult for his wife.

The husband of a Connecticut Democrat running for a probate judge seat caused a social media kerfluffle on Friday after it turned out he’s an enthusiastic backer of what looks a lot like white supremacy, much to the exasperation of his political wife, who faces the voters on Tuesday.

Robert Freeman made headlines on Friday after his blog Mindweapons of Ragnarok was exposed by One People’s Project, an organization devoted to monitoring hate groups.

On his blog, he writes how he wants to establish whites-only towns, employing individuals from other cultures and races as spies in an agenda to shape America in his image.

His wife, Anna Zubkova, is running as a Democrat for a probate judge seat in Plainfield, Conn. The election is on Tuesday and Freeman is rightfully concerned that his political views might infringe upon her chances.

“He did not have those views when we married, but acquired them after,” Zubkova told The Norwich Bulletin. “What am I supposed to do? Divorce him? It’s not unusual for husbands and wives to have different views.”

According to Freeman, Zubkova, who did not respond to a request for comment from The Daily Beast, obtained her citizenship through the marriage.

Freeman originally responded to the allegations on his website in a post Friday.

2 Cops Resign After Allegations They're KKK--5 Yrs Ago Officer Was Pictured In Pointy Hood, Robe --Bad career move

July 15, 2014 Dailymail.co.uk , David McCormack 1 Comments
By David McCormack, Jul. 13, 2014, Dailymail.co.uk

One Florida police officer has been fired and another has resigned amid allegations that they are both members of a local branch of the Ku Klux Klan.

Fruitland Park police have confirmed that Deputy Chief David Borst, 49, resigned, while Officer George Hunnewell was dismissed on Friday after the allegations were made against the officers in a confidential FBI report by the Florida Department of Law Enforcement (FDLE).

It isn't a criminal offense to be in the KKK, but local police chief Terry Isaacs said the document was given to him to consider how the allegations might affect the officers' credibility and the perception of the department in the community.

He told WFTV that while he had no proof or documentation the men were members; ‘I've read the report, and it's convincing.’

On Friday, Isaacs began preparing an internal investigation and put the men on administrative leave.

Borst, a veteran officer with more than 20 years of law enforcement service was also Fruitland Park's fire chief.

He denied involvement in the group but resigned both posts on Friday after requesting time to speak with his family.

Lsaacs asked the city manager for approval to fire Hunnewell based on a review of the officer’s record with the department.

He had been demoted from corporal in 2013 and received five ‘letters of counseling’ in the past year.

‘I just had no faith in him,’ Isaacs told the Orlando Sentinel.

Both officers names surfaced as part of an international probe being conducted by the FBI.

They turned the investigation over to the FDLE to look into the standards and ethics policies to see what action should be taken.

FDLE officials also agreed it wasn’t criminal and so referred the case to Isaacs.

Michael Jordan: 'I Was A Racist As A Teen' --Let's see NBA try to take HIS team away

May 08, 2014 ” by Ronald Lazenby , “Michael Jordan: The Life 0 Comments
By News.com.au, May 6, 2014

Basketball legend Michael Jordan says that he considered himself a racist when he was a teenager and was “against all white people.”

The confession comes from a new book, “Michael Jordan: The Life,” by Roland Lazenby.

Jordan said the Ku Klux Klan was dominant in North Carolina, where he grew up in the mid-1970s, buying uniforms for sports teams and Bibles for schools.

Jordan took up baseball before basketball and was one of only two black children on the team. He says he was often told he was inferior.

Jordan says it was after watching the miniseries “Roots,” about the suffering of his African-American ancestors, that he began to understand more about race relations.

In 1977, he remembers a girl at school calling him a n—-r.

“So I threw a soda at her,” he says. “I was really rebelling. I considered myself a racist at the time. Basically, I was against all white people.”

He was suspended for the incident. During that time, it was his mother who convinced him that he could not go through life consumed by racial hatred.

Aaron Gets Racist Hate Mail For Comments About Obama Critics --Remains one of country's most respected citizens

April 21, 2014 Hank Aaron , Jackie Robinson 0 Comments
Hank Aaron
Gopthedailydose.com, Apr. 20, 2014

MLB Hall of Famer Hank Aaron recently likened President Obama‘s Republican critics to the KKK in “neckties and starched shirts.” He made this remark in an interview with USA Today, and the paper now reports that the Atlanta Braves have received quite a bit of racist hate mail in response to his remarks.

For example, one of the letters reads “Hank Aaron is a scumbag piece of (expletive) (racial slur).” The censored racial slur is used multiple times in the same piece of mail.

Ironically enough, USA Today‘s report on the racist hate mail was from Tuesday, April 15th, which was Jackie Robinson Day. And they share, sadly, more e-mails the Braves received in response to what Aaron said.

The Braves have been besieged by hundreds of letters, e-mails and phone calls deriding Aaron for comments he made to USA TODAY Sports.

Hank Aaron Compares Republicans And Other Obama Opponents To KKK --Names would be helpful

April 10, 2014 Babe Ruth , Democrats 0 Comments
By Andy Clayton, Apr. 9, 2014, Nydailynews.com

Hammerin' Hank can still swing for the fences.

Hank Aaron, who was celebrated Tuesday night in Atlanta on the 40th anniversary of breaking Babe Ruth's all-time home run record, compared Obama critics to the KKK as he opened up about the state of race relations in an interview with USA Today.

The Braves legend, who told the newspaper he still has the bigoted letters and death threats he received during his pursuit of one of baseball's most cherished records, said that little has changed despite the decades that have passed.

"The biggest difference is that back then they had hoods," Aaron said. "Now they have neckties and starched shirts."

Aaron said he keeps the hate mail to remind himself that not everything has changed.

"We can talk about baseball. Talk about politics," said the Hall of Famer who finished with 755 career homers. "Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he's treated."

"We still have a long ways to go in the country," Aaron added.

Hank Aaron Compares Republicans That Oppose Obama To KKK --So sad, so misled--and such a great man--Aaron, that is.

April 09, 2014 Atlanta , CBS News 0 Comments
Apr. 9 , 2014, CBS Atlanta/AP

Baseball Hall of Famer Hank Aaron compared Republicans that oppose President Barack Obama to the Ku Klux Klan.

Speaking to USA Today Tuesday on the 40th anniversary of his then record-breaking 715th home run, the 80-year-old Aaron said that Republicans are hindering Obama’s job performance.  “Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he’s treated,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.

Aaron continued: “The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts.”  Aaron stated that there is still room for improvement for race relations in the U.S.  “We have moved in the right direction, and there have been improvements, but we still have a long ways to go in the country,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.

Aaron goes on to describe the racist letters he has kept for decades as he was chasing Babe Ruth’s home run record.  “To remind myself that we are not that far removed from when I was chasing the record,” Aaron explained to USA Today Sports. “If you think that, you are fooling yourself. A lot of things have happened in this country, but we have so far to go. There’s not a whole lot that has changed.”

The Elder Statement: Who was Republican Bill McCulloch -- And Why Did Jackie Kennedy Praise Him?

April 01, 2014 Bill McCulloch , Civil Rights Act of 1964 0 Comments
Bill McCulloch
Source:  Politico.com
By Larry Elder. Apr. 1, 2014

The late Lee Atwater, former Republican National Committee chair, apologized 30 years ago for the party’s past use of the race card.

Whether an apology was warranted -- or framed properly -- is for another debate. Atwater offered a mea culpa -- and still blacks vote 95 percent for Democrats.

Can we talk about jobs, education and job-destroying regulations, as well as our border insecurity that hurts domestic employment, especially for unskilled workers?

No, we can’t -- because these issues take a back seat in favor of the Democrat Party’s fight for “social justice” and for the battle against “income inequality.”

The GOP has been so successful maligned, discredited and condemned that many GOP haters, no matter their race, won’t be satisfied until they exhume Atwater’s body, perform an autopsy and try to isolate his racist DNA.

Has Rep. Debbie Wasserman Schultz, D-Fla., or Virginia Gov. Terry McAuliffe, current and past DNC chairs, respectively, ever said, “We’re sorry that Democrats founded the KKK, once known as the ‘terror wing of the Democratic Party’”?

No.

Have they apologized for their party's post-Civil War opposition -- lasting nearly 100 years -- to civil rights legislation, including their near-unanimous opposition to the 13th, 14th, and 15th Amendments to the Constitution?

No.

The NAACP posthumously gave Sen. Everett Dirksen, R-Ill., an award for his leadership role in securing the passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964. The nation’s then-largest black-owned newspaper, the Chicago Defender, saluted Dirksen’s “generalship” in securing the necessary votes. He received letters of thanks from Roy Wilkins, the longtime leader of the NAACP, and from Dr. Martin Luther King, Jr.

A forgotten Republican civil rights champion is Rep. Bill McCulloch, R-Ohio, then-chair of the House Judiciary Committee. When Jackie Kennedy, in 1971, learned of McCullough’s retirement, she wrote a letter praising this lawmaker whose district, by the way, had less than 3 percent black voters.

Jackie wrote: “I know that you, more than anyone, were responsible for the civil rights legislation of the 1960s. You made a personal commitment to President Kennedy in October 1963, against all the interests of your district. When he was gone, your personal integrity and character were such that you held to that commitment despite enormous pressure and political temptations not to do so. There were so many opportunities to sabotage the bill, without appearing to do so, but you never took them. On the contrary, you brought everyone else along with you. …

“And as for my dear Jack, it is a precious thought to me that in the last month of his life, when he had so many problems that seemed insoluble, he had the shining gift of your nobility, to give him the hope and faith he needed to carry on.”

Now you know.

"5 Things Americans Should Still Be Ashamed Of Doing"--(Electing and re-electing Obama should have accounted for 2.)

March 25, 2014 Al Sharpton , James J. Braddock 0 Comments
John Hawkins, Mar. 25, 2014, Townhall
The only time most people hear the word "shame" in any setting these days is when someone tells them, "You don't have to be ashamed." Unfortunately, in a society full of reality TV shows, overhyped marketing, and millions of people competing for attention on the Internet, we could use more shame, not less. The fact of the matter is that shame can be a very healthy emotion if you've done something shameful. Shouldn't rapists feel shame? How about the Westboro Baptist Church members who've protested at funerals? What if you stole a poor kid's lunch and it was the only thing he had to eat that day? There are times when shame is very appropriate.

Unfortunately, in an interconnected world where every malcontent, misfit, and misanthrope on the planet can get together via the Internet, there is no perversion, sickness, or cruelty that human beings can do to each other that won't be heartily applauded in some dark corner of the web. Over a decade ago talented liberal humorist Zack Parsons (who would undoubtedly hate this column) wrote an extraordinary piece about how the net helps encourage shameful and weird behavior.
