Greetings from Klan World- Wish you were here!!

This year, Santa Fe just ignores Klan event

They are idiots, in their white sheets and acting all big and powerful. They act like they are trying to fight for something, but they aren't fighting for anything but stupidity.

- Felix Rogers

Ah yes, Santa Fe, that toddlin' town, that small town capital of hate and intolerance, where every day means a White Sale. Apparently, there wasn't the run on white sheets that there was last year, but that should not be taken as meaning that people don't support what the Klan stands for. No one will ever mistake Santa Fe for Diversity World.

In recent years, Santa Fe has garnered a reputation of intolerance.

A landmark U.S. Supreme Court decision in June 2000 ruled the Santa Fe school district's policy of allowing student-led prayers at campus events violated the constitutionally required separation of church and state.

Following the prayer debate, a then 13-year-old Jewish middle school student received a series of threats....

Last year a black student received threatening letters complete with a drawing of a hangman's noose and a misspelled racial slur.

Of course, most of the townspeople didn't participate, and the police ignored the Klan in the hopes that they would simply go away. Judging by the supportive honks that the Klan members got from passersby, these troglodytes aren't exactly unwelcome in Santa Fe. Of course, this isn't exactly a place with a history of open arms. A reputation for intolerance? Now there's an understatement....
