    Don't they know nobody reads newspapers anymore?

  5. Doesn't seem like such a hard case to crack, considering the organization that stole the papers and illegally distributed the flyer has their address printed right at the bottom of it.

    This one's a piece of cake. Just look up the Grand Wizard's MySpace profile and ask him, "What the fuck?"

    I interviewed Pastor Robb when this thing happened in my neck of the woods. What happens is people are supposed to download a flyer on the website and distribute it through the neighborhood, but the local "independent contractors" have gotten a little "creative."

    Nice to know that the Klan thinks their target demo still reads newspapers.

    Nice for the KKK to think their target demographic reads.

    BTW, the Era was my first paper. So I got a chuckle. Crestwood and the Valley aren't really the areas you would think the KKK would be targeting. Much affluence in those areas. Too many thinking people.

    I'll check and see if my wife's cousin got one.

    Once the Klan discovers Craig's List, we're fucked.

    Nice to see that they didn't go all gimicky and spell country with a "K".
