Ostriches, actually.

Did this actually happen? I live in Memphis I didn’t hear anything about it.

@elucidator

You don’t have a population of 360M and not have some screwballs running loose, it can’t happen. You’re gonna have a Westboro, you’re gonna have the Klan, Neo-Nazis, Black Muslims and fanatics from the militant Unitarian wing.

No one expects the Unitarian Inquisition! We have ways of making you think for yourself!

A bunch of hooded dumbfucks having a public rally, under police eyes and almost certainly doomed to be a peaceful rally :(, is mostly-harmless anyway.

This is the kind of white-nationalist action we need to worry about.

But, the GOP won’t let the Administration worry about it, or even study the problem.

MEMPHIS — The Ku Klux Klan rallied in Memphis on Saturday to protest the City Council’s decision last month to rename three city parks that honored Confederate troops.

About 75 members of the white supremacist group marched under police supervision inside a small fenced area downtown. No violence was reported and no arrests were made.

The Memphis police asked residents to avoid the rally site, and city leaders advertised a festival across town with live music and an Easter egg toss featuring Mayor A. C. Wharton Jr.

The Klan had called members across the country to Memphis. The rally was the latest response to the council’s decision on Feb. 5 to rename parks whose names it felt were racially insensitive and unwelcoming to black residents.

The old names were Confederate Park; Jefferson Davis Park, named for the Confederacy’s president; and Nathan Bedford Forrest Park, named for a Confederate lieutenant general and the Klan’s first grand wizard. The new names are Memphis Park, Mississippi River Park and Health Sciences Park, but the council may change those, too.

The last time the Klan rallied in Memphis, in 1998, fighting broke out between members and counterprotesters, and the police fired tear gas to disperse the crowd. They arrested 20 people.

On Saturday, the group paraded with signs bearing swastikas and proclaiming “Save Our Parks.” The group’s megaphone malfunctioned and chants of “white power” were barely audible outside the protest area.

Apparently it did happen. Color me corrected. I like the picture at the top of the article.

About 75 members of the white supremacist group marched under police supervision inside a small fenced area downtown. . . .

The Klan had called members across the country to Memphis.

And they could only get 75?! Epic fail.

If he says blacks have as much rights to stay in the US, he won’t win so many white pride friends.

He doesn’t say they have the right to stay here alive.
