Ku Klux Klan Puts Up ‘White Pride’ Billboard In Arkansas Town

http://www.liberalamerica.org/2015/05/04/ku-klux-klan-puts-up-white-pride-billboard-in-arkansas-town/

The Ku Klux Klan, hoping to spread their message of hatred and violence even further, has now paid to erect a billboard in Russellville, Arkansas. The billboard has a cute image of a little girl holding a puppy and announces:
“It’s Not Racist to Love Your People.”...

I’d sooner take my money and flush it down the toilet. It would do less harm that way.

Also on the web site, there is a section headlined “About” which spews forth with this bilious crap:
“A lot of people recognize that there is an ongoing program of genocide against white people. There are a lot of podcasts online from many different sources. There just isn’t something that includes the entire family and we feel that is a shame.”

Actually, the real shame is that racist, xenophobic, anti-Semitic groups like the KKK still exist in this country. What a shame these people don’t just drop off the face of the planet and never return.

They have been fostering a general climate of hatred since before Pam was born.

Of their culture, or the color of their skin....
Apparently, they only provide the positive 1/8th of their paradigm. Nothing to see on the negative 7/8ths..

That would please me greatly.

Not that everyone there supports the Klan, obviously, but I'd like to see someone take it to that level.

who is a wise-ass on general principles rather than any actual conviction.

Like Daffy Duck painting moustaches on all the billboards in the epic "Daffy Doodles" cartoon.
