Everyone mistook a priest for a KKK member (Indiana University)
The Tab ^

Posted on 04/06/2016 6:13:07 PM PDT by matt04

Rumors of a klansman on campus have proven false after a priest innocently made his way through Bloomington.

Last night around 9:15 PM, social media became a furious storm of confusion regarding a man in white robes roaming along 10th St. and purportedly armed with a whip.

Students thought the white robes indicated Klu Klux Klan affiliation.

In the spirit of Hoosiers helping Hoosiers, students were quick to look out for each other by spreading word of this potential safety risk.

For instance, Eigenmann RA Ethan Gill notified his residents via email of the perceived threat in interest of their protection.

They are too stupid to know the difference between a priest's robe and rosary beads and a KKK outift, yet they expect everyone to treat them as if they are the most intelligent people on earth.

Anyone dare show them pics of Sheets Byrd and some priests to see the reaction?

Saw this early and didn’t comment.

It’s amazing how stupid folks can be.

Of course that’s if you accept they really didn’t know the difference, and didn’t simply want to give the priest a hard time.

Well at least they were “politically correct” although “highly educated but ignorant” otherwise!

Snowflakes are not only ignorant, they are helpless without their devices.

PS The University only promises a degree, not that you will be any smarter or knowledgeable!

I think they spend most of their waking hours wanting so desperately to find something, anything, that they can point to as an example of racism, homophobia, anti-Muslim, anti-women, etc. This is what they live for. Consequently, their judgement is so blinded, so impaired, so distorted, that when they see something as innocent as a priest in a white robe, they go into a complete panic and run to their "safe space."

Seriously, when was the last time the KKK roamed around hanging people?

They have screenshots from a email a RA sent advising everyone to stay inside their dorm. Does that count?

I think the last one here in Indiana was in the 30’s in Marion.

They have a lot more to fear from your garden-variety Trayvon than they do from the KKK.

Absolutely.

My brother had a KKK neighbor until the 400 pound lard ass died of a fat attack about 15 years ago. The guys kid is an equal sized idiot now on disability ‘cause he’s too fat and stupid to hold a job.

They would have their “meetings” in the back pasture and they amounted to little more than a hundred rednecks drinking and doing drugs with with a bit of chanting and yelling.
