Here is the thirty-fourth article in our Republicans on Parade series, featuring individuals who personify what the Republican Party has become. Today’s honoree is Jessica Black. She is not a politician or a pundit, but she is spreading Republican racism from the worst possible position.
This year’s most offensive Halloween costume “winner” is doting mother Jessica Black of Craigsville, Va., who was just upholding a time-honored family tradition when she decided to send her 7-year-old son out as a KKK member. “My brother was [a Klansman] when he was in kindergarten and when he was 13,” Black told WHSV [Faux delinked].
Her son Jackson apparently saw the white supremacist costume in the movie “Fried Green Tomatoes” and made his mom proud when he asked if he could dress up at a Klansman for Halloween “cuz it was cool.”
“I did tell him that if you do it, you know there’s going to be people talking about you, there’s going to be people saying bad things about you when you do wear it,” she said…

While I certainly condemn sending this woman death threats, I find this appalling. Note how the Republican Reichsministry of Propaganda, Faux Noise, gave her more time to express her hatred and KKK Support then it gave her rightfully upset neighbor. That’s because Klan activities has become a very Republican thing to do.

Sorry, the comment form is closed at this time.
Stupid is as stupid does! And this really applies to Jessica Black.
When Black says "…there’s going to be people saying bad things about you when you do wear it,” …", she knows exactly what is going to happen. I question her fitness as a parent when she allows her son to be put in a very difficult and dangerous situation, one well beyond his years to understand. Hate is taught and it looks like Black has done a good job there.
This woman certianly deserves a spot here. This is how hate is passed from generation to generation.IT'S TAUGHT !!! And it's so wrong ! Of course Faux Noise gave this horrible person more air time….they are a big part of the problem….it's their mission to spread hate and lies.
Mommy is just so proud of her budding little Klansman. Sick! She just might have my vote for "Top Republican on Parade" this year.
Doesn't it make you want to puke?
Children so young work on the basis of 'monkey see, monkey do' – all he wanted was the approbation of his elders (but most cerainly not betters) – poor child. I hope when he grows up he realises what a terrible example his racist family is and realises that he can still become a decent human being despite them.
I feel sorry for the decent people around them who have to put up with them.
It is a sad cycle, will it ever go away?

So she claims the Klan costume is a proud family tradition:
Hmmm … so he wore the Klan costume in Kindergarten and then when he was 13.
That would mean he wore the SAME costume TWO YEARS IN A ROW!
Thanks for the link Nameless… 😮
ROTFL!
I also meant to ask the Fashionistas out there, isn't it a bit gauche to be wearing white after Labor Day?
Absolutely, that's what "winter white (off white, cream, etc)" is for. Although if she didn't bleach the sheet it may have been correct. Snerk.
Amen to all and LMAO @ Nameless!!
