Missouri Mayor Says He 'Kind Of Agreed' With Alleged Jewish Center Shooter

Last edited Wed Apr 16, 2014, 03:58 PM - Edit history (2)

The mayor of a small Missouri town has mostly nice things to say about the white supremacist accused of killing three people at Jewish facilities last weekend.

Marionville, Mo. Mayor Dan Clevenger spoke warmly this week of Frazier Glenn Miller, who allegedly went on a killing rampage on Sunday in Overland Park, Kan.

"He was always nice and friendly and respectful of elder people, you know, he respected his elders greatly. As long as they were the same color as him," Clevenger said while laughing, according to television station KSPR. "Very fair and honest and never had a bit of problems out of him."

Clevenger said he sympathized with some of Miller's views, but didn't like to broadcast that.

I wonder if Hizzoner "kind of" agrees with gunning down white people.

I left KCMO back in '89 and go back from time to time to visit my parents and friends. When I heard the news it was breaking and they stated there had been a shooting at the JCC in Kansas City. I thought it was the same JCC I used to go swimming at as a kid in Metro KC but called my Mom who said they closed that one and re-opened it in O.P.

My heart goes out to those who lost their lives and those who were targeted and a great big thanks to those who came to the rescue including your relative...Paul.
