Ten KKK Members Rally In Gettysburg: ‘We Are Taking Back This Land’
“The only solution is an all-white revolution,” one of the 10 Ku Klux Klan members said during a klan protest rally held Saturday at the Gettysburg National Military Park in Pennsylvania, according to Penn Live.
One Klansman said defiantly, “We are taking back this land. Anyone stands in our way, they’re going in the ground.” The Traditional Rebel Knights of Braddock Heights, Md., held the rally which was organized to protest black on white violence, illegal immigration, integration and gay rights.
Albert Fike, the organization’s vice president, said, “We’re not coming here to cause hardship or bother people visiting. Basically we are out there to show other proud white people that we are here if they’re interested in joining.” Yet, his threatening words say otherwise.

The KKK group also weighed in on President Obama, Jews and white supremacy, while White Pride flags waved behind the speakers.
Penn Live reports:
Using a megaphone, the klan protesters spoke to onlookers from a fenced off area in a field just north of Mead’s Headquarters along Taneytown Rd. in the park. The group of protest observers, which varied from about 30 to 50 people – as some came and left during the less than 60 minute rally – was generally peaceful, but others, such Jaede, yelled back at the klan members.
Protesters responded to observers. One said, “We remember what you look like everybody.”
John Kreis, the Pennsylvania Grand Dragon of the Maryland based Confederate White Knights klan organization, said he was attending the protest to hear what the other group had to say, but others at the park had no idea the protest was scheduled.
One woman, who wouldn’t give her name and would only identify herself as Canadian, took the hands of her two young children and hurried away across the parking lot upon hearing about the protest.
Katie Lawhon, a management assistant with Gettysburg National Military Park, on Saturday issued a written statement about the protest which said in part: “The National Park Service mission in preserving and protecting the historic resources at Gettysburg includes making them available to all Americans, even those whose views are contrary to the majority of the American public.”
Albert Fike, who described himself as a racist — which is sort of an obvious thing if you’re wearing a hood on your head — and the vice-president of the group holding the rally, during a Friday interview alleged that one of the reasons for having the protest in Gettysburg was, “We like to go to a white area to recruit.” However, recent occurrences prove to the contrary, after predominately black neighborhoods have been inundated with recruitment flyers. Or maybe, they’re just that stupid.
And while it’s their right to express their views, it’s also our right to laugh our asses off. Ten Klansman actually feel they can take ‘back this land.’ We are so afraid.

O.KKK. You can go back the rest of us are going to move forward!
M D Reese June 30th, 2014 at 5:25 pm
Taking back this land? Talk to the folks who were here long before the white hordes showed up.
These racist assholes make me sick. They need to be shamed out of existence. Oh–that’s right–they HAVE no shame.

Manifest Destiny is still alive and well in the hearts of some “Americans”. a sad truth for this modern day.

Grand Dragons, Exhaled Cyclops, Kleagles, etc. The names of Klan ranks sound like characters in a Sword and Sorcery novel.
ps..Protesters responded to observers. One said, “We remember what you look like everybody.”
Yeah, I remember like they look like too….little boy men dressed like badly made beds.

Which one is the elf ranger class? I like elves.
neworleans878 June 30th, 2014 at 5:32 pm
Don’t think they have that…but after a quick search of other ranks, I can offer you a Knighthawk. Will that do? Sorry I can’t do better…hopefully the cool spelling of Knight will make up for it a little bit…
R.J. Carter June 30th, 2014 at 5:33 pm
Dunno, but I know which one is the elf Keebler class. He’s never turned away a cookie.
Khary A June 30th, 2014 at 5:35 pm
so what’s that like a +2 to hit against Macaroons?
R.J. Carter June 30th, 2014 at 5:38 pm
Plus, he’s got lots of Grasshoppers to back him up in battle.
Khary A June 30th, 2014 at 5:45 pm
Yes that’s right Summoning Locusts…Hey wasn’t it a Jewish mage who made that spell? Think these slobs know that? They are terrible magicians…really really bad at it. They cant even make themselves disappear. AAAAaaaannd my Geek points are filled for the day.

LOL! Talk show I listened to was interviewing a man who followed Kabbalah. It was all rather cut and dried, and I got in on the phones and asked, “Hey, can you guys still make golems?”
The host was all, “Yeah, yeah, that’s funny, next caller.”
Guest: “Oh yes. That’s documented in the…”
Host: “Waitaminnit!! Golems are real? Why the (bleep) are we talking about all this other (bleep)! I wanna hear more about that! I want me a frickin’ golem!”
See, I don’t just derail discussions on the Internet. I’m an equal media irritant. 🙂

Suzanne McFly June 30th, 2014 at 6:35 pm
So these 10 brilliant people were outnumbered by 30 protestors? Seems to me that their message is falling on deaf ears.

The KKK better hurry up if they want an all white revolution as the numbers are going down, down, down among whites. Time for the KKK to find out what it is like to be a minority.

“Ten Klan’smen think they can take this country back”
Laughing MY ASS OFF.

Tommy6860 June 30th, 2014 at 7:38 pm
I love it when these (racist) rallies compose of groups in the tens of, well, just ten.
BanditBasheert June 30th, 2014 at 8:03 pm
This will please the RW fundies though. Now they have a group to join up with.
mmaynard119 June 30th, 2014 at 8:27 pm
They must have used the same event organizers as the ones who organized Operation American Spring.
Bunya June 30th, 2014 at 8:42 pm
I’m sure the KKK is going to “take back this land” and return it to it’s rightful owners. The native Americans will be forever grateful.
