KKK Labor Day Cross Burning – “Family Style Fun” – Bring Children

Sadly, not The Onion.

http://www.ringoffireradio.com/2015/07/kkk-labor-day-cross-burning-family-style-fun-bring-children/

Ever since the Charleston shootings, the Ku Klux Klan has engaged various forms of community outreach to soften its image. The latest attempt is to hold a family-friendly cross burning in Harrison, Arkansas, reported RawStory.

During its “National Congress,” the Knights Party in Harrison will schedule family events like a bonfire, ping pong, foosball, dancing, a weenie roast, and end the festivities with a good ol’ KKK-style cross burning. The Knights Party’s website asks that attendees dress in business casual attire. The group encourages parents to bring their children for some early indoctrination.

“Your children are the target!” reads the Knights Party’s website. “Those that hate our heritage and faith have targeted America’s children. Schools are indoctrination centers for homosexuals and race-mixers. Even our churches aren’t safe. Television is full of filth.”

To further create a “family” atmosphere, the KKK will have nurseries for the younger children.


Hours of family fun!

Note: Harrison is way up in the Ozarks by the Missouri line, and is essentially all-white.
