The Village of Bluffton is among communities finding Klu Klux Klan recruiting flyers on the ground, according to Mayor Richard Johnson at the Monday, February 24 council meeting.
Johnson asked residents to turn in any flyers found to Town Hall.
He characterized the flyers as an attempt to draw attention to an upcoming convention and “create fear and intimidation toward members of our village.” He stressed that “this is unacceptable and is not representative of our village. Hate is not to be tolerated in our village.”
News reports indicate that the flyers have been distributed in places including Ohio and Kentucky along I-75.
