Welcome, Ku Klux Klan enthusiasts
This is officially the only image I have ever used twice. Scary.
I am a little perplexed to see that the primary search bringing dozens of people to this site each day are the words “Ku Klux Klan,” but who I am to judge? I don’t really know what I’ve done to earn the honor, particularly since my sentiments aren’t exactly in tune with those of most white supremacists, but as long as you’re here…stay awhile! I’m sure you’ll find we have a few things in common.
For instance, I enjoy a good bonfire as much as the next guy. On a cold night, there’s nothing like gathering around a warm blaze with your close friends while wearing your finest bedsheets. I get that.
Admittedly, I’d be more inclined to fashion mine into a toga, but different strokes…
And persecuting and wishing harm on others? That’s good stuff. I prefer to silently seethe and focus my impotent rage and ill-will on people I know personally and probably dated at one time or another, but that’s just me. Maybe if I had the opportunity to tie one of them up and drag them behind a truck, I’d find I liked it?
On the Milan runways next fall? It's like the Sex Pistols meet General Lee.
I have a real weakness for fashion accessories, and I just now in the last five minutes learned that you have your own web site on which you sell jewelry with a consistent “the South shall rise again” theme. I am probably now on several hundred FBI watch lists, so as long as I’m going down hard, let me add that I am exceedingly compelled to buy the Wide Rebel Bracelet with Spikes. It speaks to me in its overwhelming absurdity, but I don’t know that it’s worth having my phone tapped or my emails read by Homeland Security.
I will say you’ve managed to keep your prices low. At $7.99 for each item AND no shipping costs, you offer some real conversation starters for a screaming bargain, particularly if you accidentally sit on the cuff.
It truly renders me speechless.
Lastly, I love a prank, and those 10″ tall ceramic Klansman statues? Holy hell, that’s some funny sh*t! The best part is the optional lighted eyes (complete with a 5 foot electrical cord for plugging it in). Thank you Ku Klux Klan for having made next year’s Christmas shopping so easy…and so damn funny.
I, for one, am relieved to see that you clearly realize how ridiculous your organization and its viewpoints are, and have decided instead to poke fun at yourselves. I can imagine that some people within the KKK would’ve fought back against that bold change in direction. Perhaps they thought if you made a mockery of your own belief system by selling lighted ceramic Klansman collectibles it would undermine your mission or make you look like idiots?
And yet you did it anyway, and I applaud you.

Those little KKK ceramics with lights in sound fantastic. AND the bracelet. As you say, all I’d need then is the General Lee to match and I’d be the coolest thing on the planet….
ROFL @ the south lost, get over it….
this is pretty true, i watched a documentary the other night about the klan and i thought it was not only strange but scary that the people i was watching not only did what they did cause they liked it but to them this was an actual religion! willing to die for somthing that started as nothing more then an intimidation method is now a HUGE part of southern culture.

Oh yeah? Just check out the comments for my lovely pantyhose post from 1/28/09.
I imagine they guy was right in the middle of …
then he clicked on my post and had to start ALL over.
I retitled and the stats dropped like a rock.
Doesn’t anyone read the little blurb under the main title?!
Let’s send them all for a lovely boat ride and serve them cooked carrots.
Agreed!!! (and emphasized only by the fact that your comment appears under someone apparently inviting me to join the Ku Klux Klan when I clearly spent an entire post mocking them.)
My favorite is when you can see that someone with their underpants around their knees executed a Google search in hopes of some ‘inspiration’…and at some point decides to abandon that goal and stay and read some blog posts instead. I love it!
