    An “American Idol” contestant has dropped out of the singing competition after a video circulated of him sitting next to someone wearing what appears to be a Ku Klux Klan hood. Caleb Kennedy, 16, apologized for the video on Twitter and Instagram.http://apne.ws/DWuu5jG

        In his post, Kennedy said: “I was younger and did not think about the actions, but that’s not an excuse. I wanna say sorry to all my fans and everyone who I have let down.” I thought he was 16?! What does Younger mean here?

        Dropped out and is now consoling himself with his Klan buddies and now focusing his grief towards American Democracy. Why can’t the South let the Confederacy and the Klan go?? Seriously, why?
