Brian Gaines, who runs the South Carolina Budget and Control Board, which oversees reservations, confirmed the scheduling in an email to POLITICO Monday. He added that the group submitted the request on June 23 and, because his office allows any group, regardless of ideology, to reserve the grounds on a first-come, first-serve basis, the KKK will be able to hold its rally.
The event is planned for July 18 from 3-5 p.m., just over one month after Dylann Roof allegedly entered a historic church in Charleston and shot to death nine African-Americans during a Bible study meeting. Reports indicate Roof was attempting to incite a race war and had read 34 various materials from white supremacist groups online before plotting his crime.

So it is ok for a group based off of hate to stand together and blast their beliefs, yet a flag is too offensive? How does that even make sense. But then again, if you ban the KKK then you would have to ban the Black Panthers. I am not sure how well that would go over.
Throwing gas on the fire. The KKK are an extremist christian group who should be looked at the same as ISIS. Religious based terror groups should have no legs on US soil.
So 4:21 you think the black panthers preach harmony? I agree it's a sad day when the KKK is the only institution standing up for a white Americans, but don't you see what the left is doing. Evil deceivers all of them. twisting all logic and sanity to pack some more powder into the keg. Soon the fiscal match will ignite it.
I don't think it's going to make a difference. But seems to me last time I saw a photo of one of their demonstrations, they weren't carrying any confederate flags.
Perhaps they should protest, demanding also it be removed, because "white people are tired of having slavery rubbed in their noses everywhere by that symbol of Southern defeat".
You know, a little marketing backspin on it, some reverse psychology, and the blacks will be demanding it fly at the White House. Doesn't take much with them.
Since everyone is not OK with the confederate battle flag these days. I think the KKK should change to a rainbow colored flag. Now that would be funny! We would have to ban that flag as well!
8431 I think the religion of progressive rainbow racist hatred anti-christian bigoted pigs Should not breathe air nor have a leg on US soil.
What a bunch of idiots. Instead of propagating hate why not use there energy to improve relations with all people.
Well said. Now...when are you leaving?
figures 534!! progressive Libtards always twist words and the truth!! read what I said.. you're the one with twisted values and doomed marxist ideals.
5:30 You mean like the new Black Panthers Party?
4:31. The KKK are democrats idiot, NOT Christian extremists. Get your facts straight.
They should all be viewed together....NAACP, Black Panthers, KKK, Farakan, Jackson, Sharpton....if you say one is racist they are all racist! Don't pick and chose.
I think I will cancel my vacation so I can attend. Finally a group with some sense.
5 people will show up. White people work.
The South will rise again.
They like to be known as Dixie Democrats.
THE OEM BOYZ IN DA HOOD
I'm thinking maybe you missed 5:34's point.
You can't have it all ways. You want freedom of speech, freedom of religion, freedom of expression etc. etc. all good, I agree 100% but as big of a bunch of whacko crackpots the KKK may be..they by those same standards must be afforded the same freedoms. I'm ok with rules....as long as the same rules apply to all.
Maybe Obammy will show up and begin the proceedings by singing amazing grace again.
Because it's a waste of time. I disagree with much of their ideology and past tactics, but nobody else has the balls to stand up to the black bullying we've seen in the past several years.
You are a nut!!!
7:30 They don't "stand up" to anything. Just spout their racist rhetoric through a bull horn, and pace back and forth. Scared white males, hiding behind a mask. Just look at all of the keyboard warriors on this site, who would piss their pants if they ever had any type of confrontation.
God help this country if this happens....and God help anyone on this page spewing hate.
@ 6:16 that is exactly what I was saying in my earlier post, not sure how @4:41 took it as me saying the Black Panthers are not on the same level. If the KKK is evil, then every organization that stands for a certain demographic should be illegal as well. It seems it is always ok to infringe on white people as long as no one else is effected. Spare me the white people are so lucky crap, this isn't 1970 and we are all struggling together.
Perhaps you're counting on them being scared. Yeah, tell yourself that.
The more the "troubled youths" display their brazen contempt for the law and the culture that built this country, the more whites tire of patronizing them.
If there's any kind of rally for FREEDOM around here, for American values, for WHITE pride, for true EQUALITY regardless of race or gender, or for OUR proud heritage, I will do all I can to be there in support of our people.
I have never been "politically active" before, but like many others, I have passed my point of tolerance. I am not scared of some big fat Dindu glowering at me. I can smile right back, and not a damn thing he can do.
I would hope any peaceful protests in favor of peace and freedom and patriotism, would be held over the state line in Delaware though.
I'm sure many of you know why.
(Mine's from Utah.)
The Black panthers are an extremist Muslim group and should be arrested on terrorism.
Do u feel the same about the new black panthers ? Liberal.
Who cares about a bunch of cowards... it's 2015.. try it if you want
how many Gov't agents ya think are planted into that group?....
What's sad is this is the only group that stands up for White Americans.
