Supporters of the Ku Klux Klan and the Black Panthers clashed outside the South Carolina Capitol in Columbia on Saturday.
The South Carolina Department of Public Safety reported five arrests. Seven people were transported by ambulances for medical treatment.
Both the Loyal White Knights of the KKK and the New Black Panther Party held rallies on the statehouse grounds.
The KKK rally in support of the Confederate flag came a week and a day after the flag was removed from outside the Capitol building.
"The Confederate flag does not represent hate. A lot of Americans died for that flag," one member of the KKK said, according to CNN affiliate WOLO.

Too bad they all couldn’t kill each other off.
[ Too bad they all couldn’t kill each other off. ]
Neither one of them would be missed, and Both would not be missed at all...
Feds at work
yep ... we’re screwed
There are just *some* wars you wish *both* sides could lose.
Yeah, like those stings where they invite un-jailed felons to see if they won a lot of money.
Get 'em all in one place and then shut the doors.
Yeah, I don’t want the right wing crazies making the Confederate flag THEIR symbol. Sod both sides!!
“There are just *some* wars you wish *both* sides could lose.”
Yeah, like the Sunnis against the Shiites. Just arm both groups to the teeth, “invite” them to Mecca, throw in a thousand porkers running around, and let the fun begin
Closer ever closer comes the Social War.
Had the Klan had any sense, they would have only carried American flags. Forced the panthers to attack American flags.
New Black Panther Party....
the NBPP says it sees capitalism as the fundamental problem with the world and revolution as the solution.
Critics of the NBPP say that the group’s politics represent a dangerous departure from the original intent of black nationalism; specifically, that they are starkly anti-white, and also antisemitic. The Southern Poverty Law Center classifies the NBPP as a “black racist” hate group.
Agreed
Can anyone else see what a setup this is?
Yah, well, until Tea Partyers and other conservative activists march against the Klan, the Black Panther commies will get all the media coverage that makes them look like heroes standing up to Adolph Hitler’s children. But fat chance eh? I mean really, people, we’ve proudly handed the left their victory in the media wars. (slaps forehead)
They are going to go after the US Flag next, it’s already begun.
As in foment this hatred enough to cause CWII, then someone declares a national emergency without end to stay in power?
I am grabbing the tin foil...but that’s only because I am wrapping corn for the grill.
I really can see him doing it.
I have a simple question. From what I’ve read the KKK obtained a permit to demonstrate. What about the Black Panthers? If they didn’t get a permit, why didn’t the cops crack down on them for turning unlawfully this ugly??
