Members of the Ku Klux Klan say they plan to stage a protest outside the Dollywood theme park in Pigeon Forge, Tenn., on Saturday, where several thousand gay and lesbian parkgoers are expected for a ''Gay Day'' event. About 20 protesters are expected.

Easy to spot... They are the Klansmen wearing pastel or flower print sheets.
(Hey... don't blast me for that one... I'm an equal opportunity offender. And now that I've effectively insulted both sides, I'll just be on my way...)
I guess being morally superior is all you get when you're a mental GIANT like those guys wearing white hoods, huh? ;)
SLFAKE: Pastel? How gauche! But the thread count is always a dead giveaway.

So many problems in this world are caused by the herd-instinct.
boblogone: Easy mistake to make... I mean if I were a die hard Six Flags fan I'd hide my face under a hood too.

mOOSH [relax...we were supposed to be ghosts...of coaster designers from the Golden Age...ok, so it didn't work the way we'd planned!]
They looked incredibly surprised that someone would equate them with nazis.
It was a story about a town that was being pressured to move its nativity scene from the town hall, town park, or where ever. The local KKK kook showed up with a protest sign. The interview went something like this:
Reporter: A member of the KKK was protesting the decision to move the nativity scene from the property...
KKK member: I'm here because this is a Christian country founded on Christian values... I think that the town should be allowed to keep the manorah on display.
Reporter: Do you mean Manger?
KKK member: Yeah...
I mean come on... labeling your self a hate filled biggot is bad enough... AT the very least know the symbolism you are supporting... and if you can't do that, AT THE VERY LEAST don't get it confused with a symbol of one of the groups that your group "hates".
(... then there was the story of the exceptionally dumb klansman [okay, that is redundant, I know] who kept getting tangled up in his fitted sheet...)
