KKK Flyers Demand Immigrants Leave Kentucky on Inauguration Day
Kentucky police are investigating the distribution of racially charged flyers from the Ku Klux Klan, urging immigrants to "leave now." The flyers were distributed across the state on the day Donald Trump was inaugurated as president.
The flyers feature a cartoon of Uncle Sam kicking a family of immigrants and include a message calling for community members to monitor and report immigrants. They also contain a phone number and an invitation for individuals to join the KKK.
Local law enforcement agencies, including the police department in Ludlow, condemned the flyers as "disturbing and disgusting" and stressed that such behavior will not be tolerated. Fort Wright Mayor Dave Hatter called the flyers "loathsome and deplorable," emphasizing that they do not represent the community's values.
The police chief in Bellevue expressed concern over the alarming nature of this propaganda, particularly given the timing of its distribution. Similar flyers had also been reported in Indiana in previous months.
As the investigation continues, community leaders are urging anyone who feels threatened to report such incidents to the police.
