Surprised? I'm not.

I find this disgusting, though.

These things rarely turn out to be linked to an actual KKK presence, and in most cases are ruses to create momentum and support for the groups that would benefit from falsely projecting such a presence. Kind of like the old Charlie Manson Helter Skelter tactic.

One of the best way to get support for your own message is to disguise yourself as your opponent and deliver their message badly. Someone is trying to get a strong reaction out of the general public to their advantage. The KKK was never very smart but not quite this stupid.

This just happened about 2 or 3 weeks ago in the Syracuse area and supposedly had an address in NC linked to it: WKTV.com | KKK flyers circulating central New York, focus on Black Lives Matter

Black Lives Matter is clearly a part of this tactic. BLM is primarily funded by covert racists, not black people.

This could be a possibility. The last time I saw or heard of any of these guys was the late 70's maybe very early 80's. These were carryovers from the integration period of the 70's.

The rioting and media suppression of the criminal history of the deceased is fueling a resurgence of racial animosity.

At least Raleigh behaved well when a multiple felony offender was killed.

I am happy as a lawn mower on a 1 acre field of new grass that I did not get any of those flyers on my lawn.
I will go back to the quote from Rodney King, 'Can't we all just get along'.
Judge by ones character and not their physical traits.
Far to many people in this country need help and not flyers....

If one wants to toss flyers....toss ones that have 'RRR' on them.
Reading, wRiting, and aRithmetic. We can can use more of that and less of hate.

This is a sad thread......
