The World Knights of the Klu Klux Klan want to pull the troops out of Iraq. The downside is that they want to redeploy them to the US-Mexican border to prevent illegal immigration. This along with the usual hate-rhetoric about gays, blacks, Jews and latinos were on full display during a weekend rally by the KKK at the site of the Gettysburg address. (PageOneQ)
About 30 members of the Klan showed up. More than 200 counterprotestors were on hand along with 150 law enforcement officials. That's causing quite a stir.
The World Knights obtained a permit in July for the two-hour demonstration. The National Park Service granted it under the group's First Amendment rights to free speech.
Several groups counterdemonstrated. Park Service spokeswoman Katy Lawhon said there were no major incidents; one man was cited for entering a restricted area carrying a rainbow flag.
You go, homo-protestor.
