You know your movement is a little too crazy when…

…even the Klan doesn’t want to be associated with you.

Earlier this month, some press releases on the KKK’s official website from summer 2010 made their way over to Reddit, from which they proceeded to hit the Facebook walls of social-medites everywhere. According to the infamous organization, they want to make sure no one associates them with the Westburo Baptist Church (these people, in case you didn’t remember), Florida Pastor Terry Jones, or the Tea Party:

[In relation to Terry Jones] There are without doubt Islamic sects that teach extreme views of Islam but, going down to their level of hatred by burning their books is a dangerous and ignorant way to confront their teachings. The flames made by such unholy fires never die out! The Ku Klux Klan, LLC. opposes this most un-American thinking and activity.

[…]

The Ku Klux Klan, LLC. has not or EVER will have ANY connection with The “Westboro Baptist Church”. We absolutely repudiate their tactics of protesting the funerals of U.S. soldiers, men and women who die serving our Nation.

[…]

The Ku Klux Klan, LLC. Does NOT support or represent the “TEA PARTY”. Our Associates, members and supporters are here officially ordered: NOT to attend Tea Party events or support them in ANY way. The Tea Party does not represent any but a shallow limited political agenda, which fails to serve our Nations interests.

Not with stupid

The releases go on to say that the Klan does agree with certain parts of the groups’ agendas, such as Westburo’s belief that “Homosexuality is an abomination before Yahvey God the Father.” But largely, the Klu Klux Klan seems to disdain these groups because they are hate-mongering and crazy. Holy shit.

If you’re brave and don’t have anyone looking over your shoulder, you can find the original press releases on the KKK’s site, here.

    In other words, the tea party isn’t crazy *enough*.
