Is it true? I sure hope not, but the Information provided by Anonymous in re to Darren Wilsons KKK ties explains alot to me about how screwed up the system that we the people are told is there to protect us.
This brings up many questions I have about the hiring of Police Officers by Ferguson Police Department.
- Are there background checks done before hiring Officers of the Law?
- Are there more KKK members involved in the Ferguson PD?
