Another threat by Anon released today

quote:

Anonymous, an unidentified group of online activists against racism and violence, published the video after they launched denial of service attacks to take down a site associated with the KKK and seized two Twitter accounts earlier this week. The actions were in response to deadly threats the white supremacist group made to demonstrators in Ferguson.

The hacker collective refers to this series of attacks -- which has also unmasked the identities of alleged KKK members -- as part of a campaign recognized as #operationKKK or #opKKK.


quote:

“We want the KKK gone, forever. Don’t worry, we know what we’re doing.”

Aside from this newly-released video, members of Anonymous have sent messages through various social media outlets including Twitter and Instagram along with posts published through their website.

Twitter and Instagram posts? OH NO!

on the flip side, Anon has given teh KKK more national pub that it's had in probably a decade. all at the cost of a DDOS attack and some (obviously terrifying) twitter adn instagram messages. pretty cheap pub

if you watch the video, Anon actually tries to claim that the police are on the side of the KKK if they do anything to protesters

*ETA: remember this claim, too:

quote:

We Are The Law Now


Anon is nothing more than a bunch of wannabe tyrants attacking perceived tyranny and claiming they're for freedom

Regardless, shining light on the KKK, especially after it issued threats, is a good thing IMO. Perhaps with their names and addresses out in the open, they will be given opportunity to exchange viewpoints with Ferguson protesters.

Reminds me of a 1980's "60 Minutes" report on the rise of Nazism in the US...and it was like 5 guys in a field dressed up shooting guns.

There's more KKK members in Civil War re-enactments than in any tangible threat. What a relic.

But hey, it catches headlines and sells like the "H" Hitler Channel.

Truth.

And they're so brave, taking such an unpopular stance.

Next they're going to go after Hitler and those pesky Nazis.

All KKK needs to do is give the cartel a call and anon will go away.

that only occurred b/c Anon made them relevant and that got them on TV in an adversarial role to Anon

it's a self-fulfilling prophecy. Anon started a war and egged on a bunch of half-retarded yokles to say something inflammatory. now Anon is acting like the group had that kind of power/publicity without Anon's actions and the group is relevant (when it's not)

this isn't some grand statement of social justice. the only group that has objective evidence that it intended violent action at the protests is the New Black Panthers. why isn't Anon trying to attack that fringe group? hell the NBPP loves trying to act relevant at these events. they were hilarious during the Trayvon shite

Anon knows those neo-nazi groups can and will come at them, so they let them be. much easier to attack a group of about 10 sub-85 IQ hicks

They should. In fact Anon should give each group the other's addresses . . . so they can get together and have a beer summit or something.

i have $ on the bomb plan being intended as a ploy to blame it on groups like that KKK group. if you can't display actual racism, manufacture it!

It's not really about trying to make the KKK feel more relevant.

It's about some agenda-driven Leftists trying to promote the false narrative that we are still living in the America of 1962.

The kkk was never relevant to most white people like yourself. Nothing to see here! Move along!

What a mind blowing conundrum. Just asking for ID is racist and then to have a racist ID presented. Lucky you weren't time shifted back to 1955.

You're right, that was a dumbass kid

teh KKK is a dying organization with a historical name

kind of like the "Black Panthers"

Irony inside (go to the comments)
quote:


Just like children who hear ghost stories and believe they are true, white people who are already nervous and afraid of what might happen in Ferguson will believe that they are under threat from a black para-military organization called the "New" Black Panthers, because they've seen this story on the local news.

So NOW what we actually know is that there are four [count them FOUR] members of the "New" Black Panthers. Two in Philadelphia and two in St. Louis. Given the amount of police violence against African-Americans we've seen over the past 350 years....you'd think there would be more and they'd be active and visible.


that is some mighty fine ironing
