Miles, who held KKK gatherings on his farm, located 12 miles north of the city with a Howell address.[12] Miles died in 1992. However, these gatherings, including the burning of crosses, continued.[13] The reputation has persisted into the 2000s, with events such as a public auction of KKK items scheduled for Martin Luther King Jr's birthday in 2005,[14] the 2010 suspension of a teacher who removed students for wearing a confederate flag and making anti-gay slurs,[15] and the high school basketball team's racist tweets towa

CEOs Have no Ethical Standing

So. Trump fumbled his first attempt at addressing the violence in Charlottesville because, in his heart, he's a racist.

A party that no longer can give a message that anyone gives a damn about.  Deregulation of the banking system came under BOTH parties' watches, supported with gusto from both sides. Working out great for the bankers. For the rest us? Meh. A Canadian would know better. http://crooksandliars.com/.../daily-show-you-cant-ram...
