I feel like sending a huge letter to these dudes saying, "Dear Klansmen: No one is buying this. Good try, though."

Seriously though, fuck CNN for the tone of this article. Can't wait for their next piece on how National Socialists just want to us to vaccinate our pets.

I never get the "I'm proud to be x" thing. You're proud to have made all the effort to be born?

Waiting for the day when they get into 'historical reenactment', dress up in blackface and sic dogs on each other

It is a fraternal organization, and we do good works.

Like bombing churches and murdering people with baseball bats? Or did they denounce their own past crimes and humbly beg forgiveness from those who survived their brutal attacks, after paying suitable reparations, of course?

I must have missed that the day it happened.

was just going to put this in the "looks like an onion article" thread

I'm probably putting my own interpretation onto this but I can't help but read this article's tone as deeply, deeply incredulous in its flat affect and "the Klan just wants to LUV... and pick up garbage" take

WN groups (+racists in general) never ever say they hate people or that they're racist. they just think that wanting all the other races to leave so white people can all be happy together isn't hate. they're just filled with so much love!!

"We're not racists," Chambers told CNN Monday. "We just want to be with white people."

Bears repeating in case anyone's tempted to get fooled.

But just when you think that you can arrange your mind in such a way that you can comfortably dismiss these people, with their "72 marks of Israel" and "Trust in the lord but keep your guns" sloganeering, as a bunch of sorely misguided and ignorant unfortunates who've been too sheltered with their own kind to know any better, they bring up a no-necked motherfucker like Randy Gray, who ends his remarkably ignorant disquisition on Jews in the media not only with an exclamation of "White power!" (which the crowd repeats en masse) but, as an added flourish, by passing around a cooler full of Arizona iced tea and a big bag full of Skittles, as an homage to Trayvon Martin. "The choice of thugs everywhere," jokes the slitty-eyed racist shit, about the murdered child.

Oh man my friends and I on a road trip had some long, awful, terrible joke about the KKK having their name on an Adopt A Highway sign, which lead to one of them, still to this day, compulsively singing "The KKK took my garbage away" to the tune of that Ramones song. So it's real now. Fuck.

does Howard Stern still speak to Daniel Carver?

In all seriousness, couldn't they just give them their stretch of highway, then just happen to pass a law that coincidentally revokes any fines for littering on that exact stretch of highway, only only that stretch of highway?
