US white supremacist group threatens Ferguson protesters with 'lethal force'
2014-11-15
[Iran Press TV] The American white supremacist group of Ku Klux Klan has threatened protesters in the US city of Ferguson with "lethal force" should their demonstrations become violent.

Members of a Missouri-based branch of Klu Klux Klan on Thursday handed out some threatening fliers around St. Louis County.

"You have awakened a sleeping giant," said one of the fliers.

"The good people of St. Louis County of all races, colors and creeds will not tolerate your threats of violence against our coppers, their families and our communities."

The warning comes ahead of a grand jury decision over the fatal shooting death of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown by white police officer Darren Wilson.

Traditionalist American Knights of the KKK head Frank Ancona said on Wednesday that he has received hundreds of phone calls from people concerned about "random attacks on whites, D.C. sniper-style shootings."

He added that the fliers would educate people on what rights they legally have to use lethal force in self defense.

#7  When I was a child my father and I were going to a rural water tower for water after our well went dry at the farm. It was night time and as we pulled into the drive way to the tower, under the tower there were numerous torches and people in white robes. Even though we were white, he immediately backed out of the driveway and delayed the water run for another day.

Fast forward to a few weeks after the Rodney King LA Riots. In our part of the country in the south blacks decided to announce they were going to pull an LA style riot in response to an incident. I told two African American guys who shared a cubical who were saying they were going, that it was best they didn't, because if any thing hits the fan, that area is not LA. They will get shot. The Klan announced they would be lurking in the shadows. The protest turned out to be very peaceful.

#5  P2k, it happened at least once. See story about Asian store owners protecting their property during the Rodney King (I believe) riots.
But none since then.

#4  Ever notice how civil disturbances riots never seem to make it into neighborhoods that by census would be home to some of those 300 million guns owned by Americans?

#2  I normally have no use for white supremacists, but - in much the same way that I have trouble feeling bad when hearing about Sunnis and Shiites slaughtering one another - I could probably manage to console myself after hearing of a major mutual bloodbath chewing up the extremists on both sides off this localized brouhaha.
