KKK recruitment flyers left at homes in Maine House speakers neighborhood
http://bangordailynews.com/2017/01/30/news/midcoast/kkk-recruitment-flyers-left-at-homes-in-maine-house-speakers-neighborhood/FREEPORT, Maine — Residents of South Freeport Road awoke Monday morning to find Ku Klux Klan brochures littering their driveways.
Jack May, who has lived near the center of South Freeport village for six years, went for a run at 6:30 a.m. and saw the flyers, folded and enclosed with pebbles in Ziploc bags, in a number of driveways along his route. He went home and called the police.
The single-page, multi-colored flyer announces a Ku Klux Klan neighborhood watch and encourages people to call a “24-hour Klanline.”
“You can sleep tonight knowing the Klan is awake!” the flyer states. “Are there troubles in your neighborhood? Contact the Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan today!”
