KKK Calls For 'Shoot To Kill' Policy Against Undocumented Immigrants

Source: Mediaite.com & Al Jazeera America

I’m sure you’ve been waiting to get the KKK’s thoughts on the crisis at the border with all those undocumented children showing up there. Well, as you can expect, it’s really horrible. Al Jazeera America learned that they’re proposing a “shoot to kill” policy to deal with all those people (which again, includes lots of children) at the border.

Reporter Robert Ray asked a KKK imperial wizard why they would ever do such a thing. He explained that the people coming to the border are “criminals” and will “continue breaking the law” when they come into the country, not to mention bringing third world diseases.

Ray suggested it might be heartless to propose killing young children because of that. And here’s what the guy actually said. “If we can’t turn ‘em back, I think if we pop a couple of ‘em off and leave the corpses laying on the border, maybe they’ll see that we’re serious about stopping immigration.”

been "shooting to kill " for generations against blacks, jews, catholics and any others they didn't deem white enough. This does not surprise me in the least. Them wanting to make an example of killing a couple of children escaping chaos and grief just to find death here at the hands of racist americans. What this culture has bred in the way of racial hate is unconscionable and undying. Sad indeed.

I watched that movie, 'The Butler" last evening, I still have anger at the evilness of those racists and the total lack of humanity when talking of people outside their race.

Some may qualify as wannabe, but many are veterans.

Look at them again, look at the equipment. Rifles, vests, some are armored vests. They are agreeing to the photos so long as their faces are blurred or covered. A few thousand dollars in hardware and equipment. Plus time to go down to the border, spend a few days marching around the hills, flying the three percenter flag.

There are many more like that. Many more who are preparing for the dystopian future they foresee. Hoping that they can forestall it, perhaps even prevent it, with action. These are the kinds of people who were at the Bundy Ranch. These are the kinds of people who are turning up more and more. How many are there? I don't know. But the Southern Poverty Law Center says there are 57 groups in Texas alone. http://www.splcenter.org/get-informed/hate-map#s=TX

If there are only ten people per group, that is 570 in texas. If there are twenty per group, then we're over a thousand. And these are the groups the SPLC knows about. How many more are out there? Some groups will be larger, more organized. Some will be smaller, more radical offshoots of the larger groups.

These are just the hate groups. These are not the small gatherings of friends who are preppers, or just anointed by whatever. The hate groups are growing, and they are gaining members. Think about it.

Someone down at that border is going to shoot one or more children. I hope I'm wrong, but I think it's going to happen.

And then we will be subjected to the spectacle of right-wing bloggers and talking heads defending child murderers and slandering their victims.

Never forget that what inspired Hitler to kill the Jews was the success the Americans showed in killing the Indians. He even believed the Russians were Indians, and forcedhie s genrals to read Cowboy books.

“If we can’t turn ‘em back, I think if we pop a couple of ‘em off and leave the corpses laying on the border, maybe they’ll see that we’re serious about stopping immigration.”


Given the violence that these kids are fleeing, is something like this going to slow them down enough to glance at the bodies? My thought is that they'd be hiking in without slowing, thinking "Same stuff, different day, different place."

a "shoot to kill" policy for KKK members, Grand Wizards down to Kleagles. No mercy for racist scum. Yes, I am advocating violence, but defensive, pre-emptive and "protective, violence. Flame away.
