      His reply, when I pointed out they were making money off of items universally regarded as tools for hate? 'Thanks for your interest.'pic.twitter.com/NBIm2iOYGY

      This year, KKK recruiting flyers made the rounds there. The local paper reprinted the flyers. http://www.pressenterpriseonline.com/content/from-the-editor-why-we-printed-those-kkk-flyers …

      Anyway, don't try to tell me Pennsylvania isn't a hotbed for racism. It finds a welcoming home there, like it does all over this country.

      Oh! OH! That's not even counting the *actual KKK rallies with bonfires* that my dad accidentally stumbled upon in the woods outside York.
