Deputy police chief, officer in Florida town were members of the KKK, the FBI alleges

Police morale in Fruitland Park, Florida has been shaken after a deputy chief and officer resigned when the Federal Bureau of Investigations identified them as members of the Ku Klux Klan.

The Florida Department of Law Enforcement presented Chief Terry Isaacs with copies of a confidential FBI report last week that allegedly identified Deputy Chief David Borst and Officer George Hunnewell as members of the KKK.

And most of the stories that come up are about the firing, in which they don't mention affiliation.

And since I've already seen a story or two about how America is making life hard for the white man (did you know that it's soon to be a crime to be white man? I didn't either) - I don't think i want to keep looking.

All the flotsam, debris, and waste from the entire US sinks down into the funnel that is Florida. Well, with the rising waters from global warming, the world is going to wash it all away in a few decades and then all the nuts will be moving to your states.

Nothing has changed in the south, police and the Klan have always had a relationship, logic says without help from the police the Klan would have dead long time ago.
