Yuck. Wish there had been a counter-demonstration.

Oh, I see there were a couple. Glad the Confederate guys confronted them. Very good.

There were.

Confederate re-enactors from Virginia protested the Klan's adoption of the Confederate battle flag as an emblem and its claim to be a continuance of the Confederate cause.

"These guys don't stand for anything I stand for," said Tim McCown of Jefferson, Md. "And it's time we disengage our flag from what they stand for."

Representatives of the national Sons of Confederate Veterans also came to protest the Klan's efforts to identify with the Confederacy. In a nearby park, churches and other groups held a Unity Day rally.

The Sons of Confederate Veterans came out strong against the Klan.

I think the best counter-demonstration is to have everybody in "gayed-up" Klan garb. Like something out of Monty Python. It would drive them crazy.
