Yea I saw downtown getting closed down. As of now, nobody has shown up downtown.

I think the KKK stuff is a bunch of fear mongering garbage.

and Woodfin getting death threats


Anyone who thinks this is real and not manufactured by the anarchists is incredibly naive.

The African Americans are forever grateful of you and you daughters support. Who knows you may meet a few people you can add as friends on Facebook. Years from now the two of you can reminisce about the special day y’all shared together.

It’s real. There’s audio of it out there and they arrested a guy this afternoon.

I mean, if that is what this is all from, then we need to shut down DC because I’ve seen plenty of threats like that against Trump.

That dude is fricked up, but that can’t honestly be what shut down our city for a potential KKK violent protest.

The rumors seemed to come from the Facebook group, not this guy and his call. Though the call, along with other threats Woodfin says he’s received, probably contributed to the fences going up around Linn Park.

Great description of the group and exactly as I expected. Mountain Brook is an exclusive, expensive area so I am not surprised they feel the white privilege.

Yeah... The guy called this afternoon and these rumors have been going on since at least last night. Most of my friends that work downtown left work early both yesterday and today (the few that actually have to go into the office).

Do people seriously think there are still KKK members around



There slot of them around they just don’t actively announce it like they did in the past.

Many a house has a KKK robe, hood, literature, and confederate flag (Disclaimer: not all southerners with a confederate flag are KKK) That stay in closets or chests.

40 years ago, this may have been true. Today, I don't believe you. I have seen no evidence of the Klan's continued existence. Maybe I'm not hanging around the right people.

If they show up, point at them and laugh.

Nothing will sting them more than nobody being afraid of them.

Daughter wanted to go to this, but my work got in the way. We’ll probably go to the one Saturday at Railroad Park.


I thought the policemen in Minneapolis murdered the man. I’m against murder.

I would not go to any protest. Crowd might get out of control.

It is. But they arrested the crazy who made a death threat


Hard to believe they shut the city down over a single threat

The worst thing our police have to deal with is the occasional domestic dispute and pulling people over for DUI’s leaving Oteys. They are probably salivating at the possibility to frick some folks up.

Saw some pictures of the protest in Crestline. So sad. So much white guilt. My favorite sign I saw “I’m sorry for not doing enough”



White savior mentality is so sad.

I'd love to see them try to march down Cherokee Rd.

Shoot on sight
