I Didn’t Know These Guys Were Still Around

…in organized form, anyway.

CNN.com - KKK converges on Antietam battlefield - Jun 10, 2006

I don’t even know what to say about this.  After all these years, I guess some things never change.

“As the Klan, we are the ghosts of our Confederate brothers and sisters who died here.”

I had it wrong all this time.  Here I was thinking that they were wearing white bed sheets and hoods to mask their identity and make some sort of symbolic statement about white supremacy.

Apparently they’re just ghost costumes for a game of dress-up.

It appears that their target has changed though…it’s not just blacks anymore.  Now they’re after all the immigrants.  I wonder how they figure their “confederate brothers and sisters” got to this country?  Somehow, I doubt that Native Americans make up the majority of KKK members.

(blink, blink)
