Mom Lets Son Wear KKK Halloween Costume, Says It's A Family Tradition

A Virginia mother let her 7-year-old son wear a Ku Klux Klan costume this Halloween because, she insisted, it's a family tradition.

"My brother has [worn it] when he was in Kindergarten and when he was 13," Black said. She went on to claim there is nothing wrong with the costume or with the White Supremacist group, which she says still exists in their Virginia town. "It's supposed to be white with white, black with black, man with woman and all of that. That's what the KKK stands for."


Seriously?....seriously!!....seriously

How stupid do you have to be to not get that this is, at the very least, a really really bad idea for your child's Halloween costume? For all those folks out there who claim that racism is dead....ummmmmmm....no.

Her name is... Black???? :lamo
 
Oh, that's just lovely.

In before some conservatives starts screaming about the "race card" in 3 ... 2 ...
 
Now I'm asking myself, those thirty or so little ones I saw last Thursday night who I thought were dressed up as Casper the Ghost were something else.
 
Yayyy racism and bigotry!!! ****ing ignorant ****s.

Here's a picture of Mrs. Black's father and brother.

It ain't playing the race card to point out inbred dumbasstic, moronic, teeth grinding, butt scratching, booger eating ignorance.

Or at least that's my opinion as a conservative.

I'm not conservative but that is usually only "screamed" when valid. In this case its not. Try not to confuse real racism with false claims of racism...k?
 
Why is this even discussion worthy? There were also people that dressed up like Zimmerman and Martin, Boston Marathon bombing victims etc. People do things for attention and they get it. Sure it's in bad taste but they knew well when they did it people wouldn't approve (I suspect that is exactly why they did it, trolling)

I don't think he was accusing you B.
 
The only problem with this is that there are people who will support this woman in a fictional right to make her child into a social pariah.

Discussion worthy, debatable. Comment worthy and worth a good laugh....definitely.

There is however, always the fact that I have had several people on this forum tell me that racism is a thing of the past. I beg to differ.

I didn't think he was OD. I just thought "what the heck" and started typing. Thought his post was a good one to make my point with.

BTW, I saw this on LiveLeak, and the story you posted was watered down for the public. This family is a walking billboard for birth control, if not just plain sterilization. (kill it before it breeds!!!!)

Much ado about nothing in my opinion.

my old neighbor, Barry Black, was the guy represented by the ACLU for cross burning. Not sure about the claim racism is dead. Sounds like the usual fake indignation the OP employs in every race-bait thread
 
Unfortunately racism is still alive and well in the USA, but on the bright side side as time goes by it is less and less of an in-your-face problem.

Stuff like this doesn't even paint it as an issue. it's just some random ****head. Though hautey has a point about the kid, I'm still lost on why it was even a major news story
