Note that this is a recent mayor of Philadelphia, Miss. From the AP (via the Nashville Tennessean):
The defense rested Monday in the trial of a former Ku Klux Klanman in the 1964 slayings of three civil rights workers after a former mayor testified that the white-supremacist group was a “peaceful organization.”

Harlan Majure, who was mayor of this rural Mississippi town in the 1990s, said Edgar Ray Killen was a good man and that the part-time preacher's Klan membership would not change his opinion.

Majur said the Klan “did a lot of good up here” and said he was not personally aware of the organization's bloody past.

“As far as I know it's a peaceful organization,” Majure said. His comment was met with murmurs in the packed courtroom.

The KKK for the most part WAS peaceful. were it not for this peaceful intent, the 5 million plus Klansmen would have done far more damge than a relatively small number of lynchings over dozens of years. Of course, absent from the hysterical black and leftist/communist accusations is the fact that in one single year of ANY of the past 40 years more white women were raped by black men than the entire history of Klan "lynchings" in the South.



Hearing about all of the "collective white guilt" for the poor performance of blacks in civilization needs to be answered with a strong response.

Many Blacks expect whites to act as a monolitihic group to "cure" black problems (all of which are of course blamed in one way or another on white people)

Nobody dares suggest that maybe blacks should be given their own land to control their own destiny or at least seperate them to find out just how much civilization creating prowess they really have.

There are of course dozens of examples of blacks getting nationhood, all of which have ended in barbarism. Haiti is a perfect example.
