I just want to say for the record that if anyone is on trial for brutally beating a KKK member and I’m on the jury I will never ever convict you. That is not a crime.
On the jury, being shown some video evidence…
“It doesn’t look like anything to me.”
Why would I convict him? He just whooped that ghost’s ass.
Clearly it’s John Cena your honor
You can actually question if video evidence is still credible, with editing software and deep fakes nowadays.
“It’s not a crime to beat up a ghost, because ghosts don’t exist. I think we’re done here.”
I would never say something like that on record.
Unrelated fun fact: having that kind of record come up in voir dire would immediately get you kicked off the jury.
If a lawyer can find this they deserve to kick me off the jury. Although I will say I’ve never been picked for a jury I think I’m Kryptonite the most lawyers.
Damn OP njm1314, too bad you used your real name and are super easy to find!
Jury Nullification!!!
Seriously people. Know it! Use it!
Unfortunately jury nullification also has a very racist history. Not to say it can’t be used for good now!
As long as it still exists, use it for good I guess.
We can’t change the system in a day, but we can use the tricks that racists use to nudge it in the proper direction.
And if they don’t like it, sure they can go ahead and remove those tricks. Only makes our system more fair and straightforward, which is a good thing.
You probably wouldn’t end up on the jury without lying during jury selection then.

Oh thank god-
See ya in court Tuesday then!
Parts of CT are KKK strongholds.
I have a friend who used to live there and he told me his town had some prominent klansmen there, and there were rallies a town or two away.
In the past they’ve been socially aware enough to keep it to themselves. Since Trump became a thing they’ve gotten bold.
I live in New England so I’m close-ish to where this happened… I’d like to throw something on them like wine to stain their ghost costumes but who knows if thats legal and i dont want to end up in jail since i have responsibilities to people other than just me.
Is tossing glitter on them not assault? I want something that sticks and makes it so they don’t want to wear that outfit anymore. Glitter that’s fine enough never comes out… because it’s micro plastics. I normally avoid glitter but feel this might be an exception. Any other ideas non-violent ideas to make them feel unwelcome??
Wine is probably a civil matter, right? They’d have to take you to court under their real name to recover damages.
A super soaker full of pink clothing dye. I doubt if these ‘manly man’ would like pink clothes.
Just shout “Happy Holi” and you can try and claim religious exemption.

I’ve got just the thing for you. Vegan milkshakes. Well, any milkshake will do, because the point of throwing a shake is to get them soaked in a liquid that will smell awful if it bakes in the sun. It might stain clothes, and it will certainly be uncomfortable. You should probably use a chocolate shake with the klansmen, it’ll stain their bedsheets real good.
The best part about it is the physical harm inflicted is minimal, while the social harm, humiliation, is pretty significant. This is important because humiliation is the achilles heel of fascists, since their world view is based on imagery, and this action disrupts it.
The other good thing this does is it can be used to make a potential agitator leave so they can clean up.
This, unfortunately, is assault (or some other illegal activity), so keep that in mind.
it aint assault if ya dont get caught 😏
Leave it to a place called Mystic to have it’s own Grand Wizard.
That’s a lower wizard at best!
With Spell Focus: Racism
That person is an apprentice.
Mystic is actually really nice these people are probably coming in from the sticks
The guy in the klan robe is a youtuber who trolls, mostly, Trump stuff. He is there, doing this, because the KKK literally endorsed Trump
+100 points each for hitting them, Deathrace 2000 style.
Hey, don’t hit my favourite troll. He’s biggly important. (Professional Douche).
Max Damage likes this!
Like Charlottesville?
I don’t normally pick at the physical appearances of people just for the sake of it, but I’ve noticed that Trump attracts a certain type of follower. Take a look at the people in the background of the next Trump rally and tell me what you see.
Those people and these people are the same. Just a bunch of trashy hillbillies. These klansmen are not the fringe supporters of Trump’s cult, they’re the ones down in the front. Like wax statues melting in the sun, their eyes glazed over enraptured as word salad pours out of Donald Trump’s mouth.
And don’t say “well that guy wearing the klan outfit is just a troll, the other people there are not associated with that!”. If you’ve got one Nazi in a bar full of people, you’re in a Nazi bar. If you’ve got one klansman at a Trump rally, you’re at a klan rally.
Other than the presence of the Klan, those are normal people. This is exactly the kind of elitism they talk about encountering.
Normal people don’t hang out with klansman, we beat the shit out of them.
These people are far from normal. They’re downright weird.
In this picture yes.
As a German I have a solution:
If we see a Nazi, we punch them. And with see, I mean specific symbols, clothing or other specific identifiers.
If I’m on a trump really, I should be able to punch the people in KKK outfits, the ones with swastikas, and the ones with old flags representing nationalism. And I should also be able to call the rest of them out.
I like this solution. It’s a pretty straightforward one.
That’s the problem. There is no evidence of specific symbols at Trump rallies. The commenter above has conflated the people in this picture with all Trump voters.

Could we be disparaging against fascist fuckwads without resorting to classist shit?
Remember that every single one of those creatures are going to vote.
Unless you shoot them first. Edit: please don’t shoot anyone. This is not a call for violence
Will try my best but, laying down without a fight isn’t an option.
What am I shooting them at?
Well, I count five of them. CT hasn’t been a swing state since Reagan. I wouldn’t be too worried about that changing this cycle.
But just like with other big blue states, like California and Illinois, you often see the perennial losers go full freak mode as a form of coping. Its the same way you see folks in Austin, TX or Miami, FL going full hippie-bumper-sticker on their cars and bikes. Folks sometimes think being louder is a substitute for being more popular.
No this is honest. I travel a lot for work and I feel like I see more Trump signs in CT than I did in KY. Not to say that there aren’t more Trump supporters in KY, but they are a LOUD minority
Put these fascists on https://magatmap.com Fascists should be identified and disenfranchised.
In a similar vein, anybody with information should reach out to the ACC:
https://accollective.noblogs.org/
They document and oust neo nazis/fascists.
I didn’t know about this! Thank you!
I added the Trump Unity Bridge bastard just now.
I’m legit proud of you.
Been thinking of making something like this for a few years
Now you don’t have to! Send them any ideas you have.
Most normal Trump supporter.
Possibly the most honest
Bet those robes are flammable.
If they aren’t, that can be rectified.
Anything can be flammable if you try hard enough.
That’s weird, I thought klansmen don’t have to hide their faces behind hoods anymore after Trump. Someone should tell the guy to get with the times

Do you think scientology is jealous that they’re getting beat by MAGA?
I know some former Christian Scientist is laughing his ass off knowing that no cult lasts long if it remains tied to their leader.
Come on folks. Do you think the actual KKK would have a sign saying: “Trump: Endorsed by the KKK!”
I mean Trump took an avowed white nationalist Laura Loomer to a 9/11 ceremony. We don’t need to find evidence out there that Trump is racist, he’s out there telling everybody himself.
Wish,com-ass kkk costume
I’m swerving. I won’t even think about it. It’s an involuntary reaction.
