It's one thing when ordinary citizens are fools and bigots, but when people in authority hold these ideals, that is a serious issue.
We were in an establishment, not even two miles from TV when a member in our party was engaged in a conversation closely resembling that of a Klansman. Became a very unsettling moment for us. Don't believe for a second that the "old South" is gone because the scars from that time are still fresh in many minds.

From three million kkk members to from five to eight thousand is a huge advance. And you are right to have people in authority who are members is most heinous. It isn't getting worse. They got them OUT. That is a very GOOD thing. I bet The Villages annexing of part of Fruitland park may have in some way caused the investigation to happen.


You know that evil old Gary. He wouldn't think it was good for business.

I am just kidding folks on the last sentence. A new broom does sweep clean.
