NC KKK mistakenly attempts recruiting drive in black Florida neighborhood

[Triana]

A North Carolina Ku Klux Klan (KKK) group says that it made a mistake when it accidentally targeted a predominately black Florida neighborhood in an attempt to recruit more members.

WFTV reported that residents of the New Smyrna Beach community were shocked over the last few days to find hundreds of fliers with the words “Our Race Is Our Nation” and a symbol of a hooded klansman.

“You say this was a recruiting effort; however, your group targeted a predominately black neighborhood,” WFTV’s Ryan Hughes told KKK leader Robert Jones in a telephone interview.

“Well, we don’t have no way of judging where we’re putting the fliers at,” Jones explained.

Here, there and everywhere andit keeps making me laugh! They've taken their ignorance and stupidity to a whole new level! if they invited me - I'd join just to make fun of them. Psst - I'm black.

2. HUM, wonder if any of the recruiters are Tea Party thinkers? Yep, bet so.

3. the KKK is slipping

not just the grammar, but if they can't tell when they're in a predominately black neighborhood then what's the point?

“Well, we don’t have no way of judging where we’re putting the fliers at,” Jones explained.

5. Yea, Sure

Stupid yes, dumb, I don't think so. Just another form of their "mind" terrorism and saying "we made a mistake", is just a ruse. They did exactly what they intended, put the concept of white men in hoods in the mind of a black neighborhood. Then, brush it off as, "we made a mistake." I was raised in the Georgia in the 60s, and the occasional KKK rally became folk legend around that area. The klan didn't need to have weekly rallies. They just wanted to keep the fear of the idea that, they (the klan) are in your neighborhood, in your town, might even be your local politician, policeman, or schoolteacher. As a Black child, I remember my mother saying to me, "remember, the Klan is around here," when she knew I would be arriving home late from school or sports practice.

So, it wasn't a KKK rally in a Florida Black neighborhood but it's the same intimidation. Putting flyers in front yards, provokes a strong internal reaction in most Black folk. These racist bastards were near my home, my children, my family. Yes, in still racist strongholds, it can still elicit deep and historical fears and that's what the klan is trying to accomplish. The klan and racism still lurks in the shadows and we need to shine a light on it all.
