The hacker group Anonymous recently released the beginnings of what it claims are email addresses and phone numbers of 1,000 active Klu Klux Klan members. The release caused a media firestorm when politicians, including mayors of American cities, appeared on the list.
As the dust settles, however, it’s becoming clear that this list is completely bogus.
Many of the phone numbers listed aren’t active, and some of those that are active are not personal numbers but instead go to phone banks, which make a large amount of outgoing calls for a telemarketer.
Another damning reason that many are doubting the list is the inclusion of Knoxville, TN Mayor Madeline Rogero. Rogero has a bi-racial family, which seemingly wouldn’t make her a very good recruit for the Klan.
“It is irresponsible and slanderous,” Rogero said of the accusations, “Although, on a positive note, I do appreciate that they are using a picture of me from 12 years ago. Very flattering!”
Also included was Jim Grey, the openly gay mayor of Lexington, KY.
This seems to be a day for reports on wacko nut jobs. This is a great example of the utter deceit practiced by many liberal activist groups. If the truth doesn’t fit their agenda they lie.
I notice how the history books and media rarely mention that these haters treated Catholics and Jews horribly in years past. Jewish-Americans and Irish-Americans were victims of the KKK also.
I remember seeing a video of a KKK rally where they were chanting “We hate Jews, we love Jesus” or something to that effect. Pretty laughable, considering Christ was himself a deeply devout Jew.
You would be surprised at how many people don’t know Jesus was a Jew
