A Klan Man Found Dunked In The Missouri River!

Klan man found dead by the river in suburban St. Louis.

I don't condone violence. I don't wish no ill towards this ignorant piece of shit. Hopefully his murderers are caught and sent up the creek without a paddle.

The body of a Klan man who came up missing was found near the Missouri River.

Frank Ancona, a 51 year old laborer was an imperial wizard of the Traditionalist American Knights, an offshoot of the far right terrorist group. He was found with a gunshot to the dome.

His wife reported him missing after he went out of state to do delivery work.

Local authorities question the alibi. His employer said he didn't take an out of state call. He failed to show up to work on Friday. He was on his duty on Wednesday.

The discovery of the guy wasn't reported as suspicious because a missing persons report had not been filed at the time, said the local junk food media. Police searched the area the following day but didn't find any evidence of foul play.

Klan leader hated non-Whites. He refused to follow the traditional Klan methods of terrorism.

There's something sinister going on inside the Klan man's home. The local authorities say that his safe was cracked and almost all the contents were emptied. There were signs of a firearm missing.

His wife who was planning to file divorce against him said that he was losing it.

On that note, failed presidential candidate and current asshat Ted Cruz, senator from Texas boldly said on Fox News the past week that the Democratic Party is "party of the Ku Klux Klan".

Yet, his party embraced Donald J. Trump. And the Klan endorsed him for president. Kind of funny that the Canadian born senator would go there. It's not like the Democrats nominated the African American for president. Oh, they did!

And because of the ignorance, we will have to wait for the day a woman can lead this country.

In the meantime, we have a former reality television star who became the leader. I dubbed this travesty "Fuhrer Donald Trump." He won the support of this White extremist movement called the Alt-Right. The movement is growing stronger and the Trumpster is giving them the language.

S.C. Lawmaker Serves His Wife Knuckle Style Chili!

South Carolina lawmaker sees the law for himself. He gets served a court date after this thug served his wife a knuckle style chili with toppings. 

A lawmaker who supported the losing side of the Civil War was caught up in a sex scandal. He gets busted by his wife. She taps him. He serves her knuckle style chili. Now he will face felony aggravated domestic violence charges. It could give him a couple of dimes in the iron college.

Former South Carolina state representative Chris Corley is accused of serving a couple of helpings of knuckle style chili to his wife.

Corley facing an expelling from the statehouse decided to take a knee before taking a permanent ban.

Republican House Speaker Jay Lucas read Corley's one sentence resignation letter to his fellow Republicans.

Lucas is working on replacing the disgraced lawmaker in a special election.

Corley a Republican who supported keeping the losing side of the Civil War flying on state grounds won reelection without opposition. Of course, gerrymandering also played a huge role.

His public shaming came at the cost of a 911 call from his daughter. A day after Christmas, a call to the 911 with the screams of "Please Stop,"

State lawmaker gets served a court date.

Aiken County boys released the portions of the 911 audio. "Just stop daddy. Just stop .... Daddy, why are you doing this?"

Corley's wife accused him of charging his player's card at the expense of her and the children. Corley claims that she gave him a line across the face. So he said he had to defend himself from her.

The children witness their dad serve their mommy, knuckle style chili. He also gotten a taste of flesh when he bit her nose. He even grabbed his Second Amendment remedies together. He pointed his piece at her and shove the musket across the head.

Corley's thought he could prevent her from dialing up 911. His wife seems to understand that technology works with digital watches. Her Apple Watch was activated and recorded the children crying to their dad not to kill their mommy.

Corley got a night in county lockup. He posted his $50K get out free card. He was ordered to surrender his firearms, his passport and his perk card. He was banned from state grounds and will appear in court.

Corley was also banned from contacting his wife, their children, his mother-in-law and those who helped them.

Looks like he's on the losing side of the marriage.

Anyway, this fool is innocent until proven guilty in a court of law.

Corley better ask the fuhrer for a pardon.

In other South Carolina news, Nikki Haley is confirmed as the United Nations Ambassador. She will take office in the coming days. Haley was the governor of South Carolina. She was term limited.

Haley was then a harsh critic of Fuhrer Donald J. Trump. Now she is a-ok with him. She became a face of civil rights by standing up against her fellow Republicans in removing that damn flag.

She took sympathy after pressure mounted. The Charleston massacre thrusted Haley into the spotlight. She is the first woman of Indian-American/Asian American decent to be appointed to that position.

If Republicans do pass the membership removal from the United Nations, then she would be out of a job.

A&E Cans The Klan!

Since when was it a cool idea to normalize the oldest domesticated terrorist group in the United States?

Yeah, I am fighting the stomach flu and practically throwing up on A&E's decision to give the Klan a show.

Well today, its reported that the show Escaping The KKK was canned on the grounds of it being ethically immoral.

Producers were allegedly paid the Klan for footage.

While I am certainly pleased to hear the news they canned the show, I am not pleased that anyone with a half a brain would legitimize the Klan.

Bill O'Reilly Is Officially An Old Racist Fart!

Old Fart O'Reilly let the cat out the bag.

Looks like he's having a "M-fer I want my ice tea" moment.

"Do it live! Fuck it. Do it live! I can dull write it and we'll do it live. Fucking thing sucks!"

As a good American, I will not normalized the orange fuhrer. I will not respect a controversial billionaire racist/sexist/pussy grabbing/immature former reality television star as the leader of this disgusting country. I will not support his Christian Extremist partner and his plastic wife.

I say fuck Donald J. Trump, Mike Pence, Melania Trump, Republicans, conservatives, this white extremist movement called the alt-right and this asshole Bill O'Reilly. Fuck the idiots who voted for him.

O'Reilly let the cat out the bag. He involuntarily told the real reasons to why he and his compadres supported Trump. O'Reilly believes that Trump's victory protects the White establishment from those Black and Brown people. And the oogly boogly left is trying to dismantle it, piece-by-piece.



The left wants power taken away from the white establishment and they want a profound change in the way America is run.

This is the commentary of the country's most watched agitator in the junk food media. Five hours later it changed to "The 'Hidden Reason' the Left Wants to Abolish Electoral College."

His mancrush is Fuhrer Trump.

The number of Electoral College votes for each state is decided by the number of U.S. House Representatives plus the number of Senators for the state. Therefore, even states with small populations like Wyoming, North Dakota and South Dakota have at least three electoral votes. And even though Clinton won the popular vote, she only won 20 states compared to Trump's 30.

"So, if the Electoral College were abolished, presidential candidates could simply campaign in the nation’s largest states and cities – New York, LA, Chicago, Houston – and rack up enough votes to pretty much win any election," O’Reilly said.

O’Reilly said that if the Electoral College was abolished, it would "neutralizing the largely white rural areas in the Midwest and South will assure liberal politicians, get power and keep it."

The host explained that he believes the real motive for talk of abolishing the electoral College is race because the left "sees white privilege in America as an oppressive force that must be done away with."

He added that few commentators will say that the "heart of liberalism in America is based on race."

"So-called white privilege bad; diversity good. If you look at the voting patterns, it is clear that the Democrats are heavily reliant on the minority vote," O’Reilly continued. "Also on the woman vote. White men have largely abandoned the Democrats and the left believes this is because of racism – that they want to punish minorities and keep them down."

Michigan Cop Iced After He Called Black Protesters "Monkeys!"

Kenneth J. Kleszcz from Livonia, Michigan works for the Canton Township Police. On a livestream he called Black protesters monkeys. His comments may have him looking for another job.

Canton Township Police had to ice an officer after he was caught posting on social media a racist comment towards a BlackLivesMatter protest against the controversial billionaire/racist/sexist/reality television star. He shared his not so kind words towards the protesters. He said something that most White extremists say about Black people protesting injustice.

Kenneth Kleszcz, was iced after his superiors were made aware of the allegations. They launched an internal investigation and concluded that this dick really was the one who said "GO HOME MONKEYS".

Canton Township has an increasingly diverse population, with growing numbers of African Americans and Asian Americans. More than 10% of the township is African American, according to 2010 Census figures.

The suspended officer is a one-year veteran of the department, said Canton Police. He will be suspended pending completion of the investigation. Canton Police did not say if he will continue to get paid during his suspension.

In a statement, Canton Police said: "The Canton Public Safety Department holds its employees to the highest of standards and this type of behavior is not representative of the beliefs or core values of this organization."

A livestream event happened in Baltimore, a majority Black city. This asshole went onto comment about it unaware that people will screenshot the comment, go to his social media page, find out where he works and have his ass fired for it.

Prepare the cannon, we're about to fire this asshole out of it.

Payback!

What happens next?

Don't get me wrong, I am furious over this.

For the time being, I will take a break from the heated rhetoric that comes from politics. I will not stand for the American flag. I will not pledge allegiance to the flag. I will take a knee when the National Anthem is on. I will oppose Republicans and their conservative allies for everything.

A reality television star who is a "blue collar billionaire" won the U.S. presidency. He defied all the rules of a typical election.

He managed to pull in the Blue Collar White Working Class Democrats. The Republicans pulled it off and smashed the establishment and world's pick Hillary Clinton.

I didn't bother watching the news or the gloating of Republicans and conservatives agitators.

I realized that racism is alive and well in the United States.

Blacks, Hispanics, women, LGBT, Muslims, immigrants, and well educated Americans beware, the silent majority won this. They allowed their hatred of change get in the way.

Progressives don't be discouraged. It's time to start creating a movement that will oppose Donald Trump regardless of what he does. We want him to fail.

HE WILL NOT BE MY PRESIDENT!

See if we're discouraged, we will lose.  Don't look discourage. Dust yourself off and fight again.

Fight for change. Help build a stronger coalition that will defeat the corrupt junk food media, the agitators who divide us and politicians who don't support our cause.

Today is the beginning. For the next four or eight years, we will fight!

White Extremist Sucker Punches Black Man At Trump Rally!

The Republican Party diversity tour hits even more potholes. The potential nomination of Donald Trump and Ted Cruz is causing a huge rift in the Republican Party.

John Kasich and Marco Rubio vow to stop the rise of Trump and Cruz. They're struggling for a victory in states that are crucial to their campaigns. Ohio is the state where Kasich is the current governor of. A loss in his own state would damage his reputation and potential chances at running for other offices.

Trump looks the other way when violence happens at his campaign stops.

It's even more worse for Rubio. He retiring from the U.S. Senate and focusing only on his presidential ambitions. He's currently a senator from Florida and he's hoping that support would build up. Cause if he faces a defeat, it's going to be the potential end of his career as a lawmaker and his chances at potential could be marginalized by his defeat.

The Donald Trump campaign so far has attracted the most nastiest elements of America.

Trump looks the other way when his supporters act a fool. And now the junk food media is noticing and they fear that someone could be killed at these rallies.

I know protesters are nuisances to a politician's campaign, but they have the right to protest. It happens in politics when you're running for president.

Trump has broken every rule. His rallies are huge but lurking within his rallies are White extremists.

Geezer says that he would kill the protester if given the chance.

The White extremists are supporting Trump over the rest. They believe he's the only choice.

In Fayetteville, North Carolina, Trump was having a rally and a taping of that annoying conservative agitator Sean Hannity's program. A protester stood up with a sign and it riled up the crowd.

Well as usual Trump sends someone to escort the protester out. While the protester was escorted out, he was sucker punched by a White man who was at the rally.

Video of us at the #trump rally when @undergroundkeem gets punched by a loyal trump supporter #dumptrump #vote

A video posted by Ronnie C Rouse (@theronniec910) on Mar 9, 2016 at 7:07pm PST

The extremist John McGraw was hit with aggravated assault. McGraw is accused of punching Rakeem Jones in the face as Jones was being led out of the rally by police.

McGraw is innocent until proven guilty. He may face at one to five in the iron college if found guilty.

You bet I liked it,” McGraw, wearing a cowboy hat, told the reporter. “Knocking hell out of that big mouth. We don’t know who he is, but we know he’s not acting like an American.”

The reporter asked McGraw if he deserved it and the 78-year-old responded, “every bit of it.”

McGraw added, “Yes he deserved it. The next time we see him, we might have to kill him. We don’t know who he is, he might be with a terrorist organization.”

“Number one, we don’t know if he’s ISIS,” McGraw said.





White extremist Jeffrey Lord says that the protester deserved it. This was on CNN.

The Klan Coming To Your Neighborhood!

The Klan is alive and well in rural Ohio.

In the rural town of Eaton, Ohio, residents were awaken to a plastic bag on their lawns. Inside that plastic bag, some white rice and a pamphlet for recruitment to the country's oldest extremist group.

The Klan was trying to encourage conservative White people to join their cause.

It's certainly spooked some residents and they've asked for the law to do something about it.

The law can't do nothing about it. The only thing they can do is get them for littering and trespassing on property.

There was one person on social media happy to see this on his lawn. Look at the concern troll below.

The rise of extremism isn't solely a Muslim thing. The most dangerous person to fear is the resentful White male who believes the word vomit of agitators in the junk food media.

Conservative agitators are not solely to blame for the actions of one. Since conservatives love to blame #BlackLivesMatter or the Muslim community for the actions of one, it's only fair to judge them the same.

Out Of The Hood!

Anonymous throws shade on the Klan.

Anonymous outed members of the Klan. They kept good on their promise to expose people involved in the White extremist group.

The internet activists warned that something was going down.

On Guy Fawkes Day (a symbolic tribute to the rebellion leader), the group posted the names, social media and work information of every member in the Klan. The Operation KKK was a response to chatter saying the Klan was planning on disrupting the Ferguson protesters in the wake of the Michael Brown shooting.

The Klan has been extremely active. Since the emergence of #BlackLivesMatter, the White extremists have turned to the social media for recruiting.

The White extremists got their "facts" from the kookspiracy and conservative Craigslist.

Koneheads.

"We hope Operation KKK will, in part, spark a bit of constructive dialogue about race, racism, racial terror and freedom of expression, across group lines," the group said. "The reality is that racism usually does NOT wear a hood but it does permeate our culture on every level. Part of the reason we have taken the hoods off of these individuals is not because of their identities, but because of what their hoods symbolize to us in our broader society."

Hackers spent 11 months gathering information on the alleged members, the group said, going to great lengths to confirm the identities as best as possible. They used public data and academic records as well as interviews with both experts and some of the KKK members themselves.

"We consider this data dump as a form of resistance against the violence and intimidation tactics leveraged against the public by various members of Ku Klux Klan groups throughout history," Anonymous said.

Black Lawman Helps White Hood!

This picture of a Black lawman helping a White extremist went viral.

We haven't forgotten about that White terrorist who killed nine innocent church goers in Charleston.

The shooter is alive and will face trial next year. While he's sitting in the lockup next to the ex-cop who killed Walter Scott, pressure came to the South Carolina's governor to remove a symbol that terrorist used in his social media postings.

Well Republican governor Nikki Haley caved to pressure and had the flag lowered finally.

Now a group of extremists weren't none to happy about it. They vowed to pressure the next Republican governor to raise that flag once again above the state grounds of the state capitol.

Bur they were met by another group of extremists. These extremist claim they stand for the same of the original, but their rhetoric is considered no different.

The Klan and the New Black Panthers clashed in Columbia. The law was prepared for potential riots.

One picture that seemed to circulate around the web. A Black South Carolina state trooper assist a White extremists.

Once the flag went down, the junk food media left. But the impact is still there.

This is a contentious debate over that damn flag. It's the flag of the losing side. I don't understand why anyone would support the losing side.

The Confederate Flag doesn't represent Southern heritage. It represents an insurgency devoted to keeping Blacks as livestock. It represents the opposition.

I know that the junk food media is hauling ass to Chattanooga to cover the next mass shooting.
Matter of fact, have you hear any more about it?

No.

Do you know the victims of this mass shooting?

No.

I want to let you know that mass shootings are becoming a daily occurrence.

I am tired of them. I mean when will Congress do something about this stuff.

World News Today send our condolences to those lost in gun violence. The recent tragedies show the need for reasonable gun control.

South Carolina Ends Its Ugly Legacy!

The end of the road. 

City leaders have formally closed streets near the state capitol.

There will be a heavy presence of law enforcement to prevent potential rioting.

Sen. Lindsey Graham (R-SC), presidential candidate along with Republican Gov. Nikki Haley, Sen. Tim Scott (R-SC), Rep. Jim Clyburn (D-SC), Rep. Mark Sanford (R-SC) and Rep. Trey Gowdy (R-SC) will be there for the final lowering of the Confederate flag.

This is a part of not only South Carolina's state history it's going to be a part of American history.

State lawmakers passed a resolution. This resolution calls for the removal of the Confederate flag in the wake of the White terrorist killing nine innocent church goers. One being state senator Clementa Pickney.

Haley immediately signed this into law.

Now at 10 am, the people of South Carolina see the flag lowered and placed in a museum for Confederate soldiers.

A new day dawns.....

The Flag Is Down!

Looks like another victory in the battle for progress.

South Carolina lawmakers passed a bill that will take the Confederate flag off the state capitol grounds and have placed in a historical museum. Republican governor Nikki Haley is likely to sign it.

The flag coming down will certainly piss off the racist right. They believe that the flag represents Southern pride and heritage. Bullshit.

The flag represents a losing side of history. The AP reports that state lawmakers overwhelmingly passed this. There were some Republican and Democratic lawmakers who voted against lowering the flag.

The push that would bring down the Confederate flag for good only started after nine black churchgoers, including state Sen. Clementa Pinckney, were gunned down during Bible study at the historic Emanuel African Episcopal Church in Charleston on June 17. Police said the white gunman's motivation was racial hatred. Then three days later, photos surfaced of the suspect, Dylann Roof, holding Confederate flags.

"I am 44 years old. I never thought I'd see this moment. I stand with people who never thought they would see this as well," said House Minority Leader Todd Rutherford, who called the victims martyrs. "It's emotional for us not just because it came down, but why it came down."

Nikki Haley, South Carolina governor.

Republican Rep. Rick Quinn, whose amendment appeared it might at least delay the flag's removal for several hours, was happy too after getting a promise that lawmakers would find money for a special display at the Relic Room for the Confederate flag that was about to be removed as well as the one that flew over the Statehouse dome in 2000 when a compromise was passed to move the rebel banner to its current location.

"It was done in a way that was a win to everyone," said Quinn, who voted for the bill.

The back-to-back votes came around 1 a.m. Thursday after more than 13 hours of passionate and contentious debate.

As House members deliberated well into the night, there were tears of anger and shared memories of Civil War ancestors. Black Democrats, frustrated at being asked to show grace to Civil War soldiers as the debate wore on, warned the state was embarrassing itself.

Changing the Senate bill could have meant it taking weeks or even months to remove the flag, perhaps blunting momentum that has grown since the church massacre.

Republican Rep. Jenny Horne reminded her colleagues she was a descendent of Confederate President Jefferson Davis, and scolded fellow members of her party for stalling the debate with dozens of amendments.

She cried as she remembered Pinckney's funeral and his widow, who was hiding with one of their daughters in a church office as the gunman fired dozens of shots.

"For the widow of Sen. Pinckney and his two young daughters, that would be adding insult to injury and I will not be a part of it!" she screamed into a microphone.

She said later during a break she didn't intend to speak but got frustrated with fellow Republicans.

Opponents of removing the flag talked about grandparents who passed down family treasures and lamented that the flag had been "hijacked" or "abducted" by racists.

Rep. Mike Pitts, who remembered playing with a Confederate ancestor's cavalry sword while growing up, said for him the flag is a reminder of how dirt-poor Southern farmers fought Yankees not because they hated blacks or supported slavery, but because their land was being invaded.

Those soldiers should be respected just as soldiers who fought in the Middle East or Afghanistan, he said, recalling his own military service. Pitts then turned to a lawmaker he called a dear friend, recalling how his black colleague nearly died in Vietnam.

Black lawmakers told their own stories of ancestors. Rep. Joe Neal talked about tracing his family back to four brothers, brought to America in chains to be bought by a slave owner named Neal who changed their last names and pulled them apart from their families.

"The whole world is asking, is South Carolina really going to change, or will it hold to an ugly tradition of prejudice and discrimination and hide behind heritage as an excuse for it," Neal said.

Other Democrats suggested any delay would let Ku Klux Klan members planning a rally July 18 a chance to dance around the Confederate flag.

Instead, Democrats were using a line Gov. Haley often says, calling it "a great day in South Carolina."

The governor issued her own statement. "It is a new day in South Carolina, a day we can all be proud of, a day that truly brings us all together as we continue to heal, as one people and on," she said.

The Long Hot Summer.....

The South rocked by possible arson at predominately Black churches.

First things first, we start of the month of July with the report of the Klan making a trip to Columbia, South Carolina to protest the proposal to remove the Confederate flag from the state capitol grounds.

Then there was a disturbance in which a man instigated a riot near the capitol grounds. The man was a supporter of the Confederate flag and he deliberately drove through to taunt the Black protesters.

That situation managed to attract the conservative Craigslist attention. After all, what could spook White folks more than a man being pummeled by a bunch of Black people.

Conservatives would find #BLACKLIVESMATTER hashtag merged with #RACIALMOBVIOLENCE

Then we have unexplained Black church burns in the South.

Macon, Memphis, Tallahassee, Warrenville, S.C. , Knoxville, and Charlotte were the scene where possible burns may have been the works of White extremists.

The FBI and state authorities are trying to connect the dots. Could this have been a hate crime?

Since that White terrorist killed nine innocent victims at Emmanuel AME Church, the calls for gun control and the removal of the Confederate flag have gotten louder.

FBI Involved In Mississippi Man's Hanging!

Something is strange. What happened when the law discovered Otis Byrd hanging from a tree?

The state of Mississippi is rocked by the past. Otis Byrd, former convict was found in the woods hanging by a tree. The FBI are looking into this tragedy. Some on the racist right assume its a suicide while others believe it could be the work of extremists.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to the family of Otis Byrd.

The FBI and local police fear that his death could stroke racial tension in the tiny town of Port Gibson.

Those unwanted circumstances could be extremists such as the Klan. 

The AP reporting that law is looking into the last places that Otis went to. One of those places was a casino. The Riverwalk Casino is located in Vicksburg about 14 miles from Port Gibson.

About 30 local, state, and federal authorities are on the ground. They are actively determining if this was a hate crime.

"Everybody wants answers and wants them quickly. We understand that," FBI Special Agent Don Alway told a crowd outside the Claiborne County Courthouse. "We are going to hold off on coming to any conclusions until the facts take us to a definitive answer."

The county coroner confirmed that the man found hanging from a white sheet Thursday was Otis Byrd, an ex-convict reported missing by his family more than two weeks ago. Byrd lived just 200 yards from the spot where his body was found, in a wooded area off a dirt road that ran behind his house.

Alway said investigators are interviewing Byrd's family and friends and searching his rental home and a storage unit for clues, and will not reveal any evidence along the way.

"We are trying to paint a picture of Byrd's life. We are trying to find out what was going on with him personally and professionally," he said.

Claiborne County Sheriff Marvin Lucas Sr. told The Associated Press earlier Friday that Byrd did not appear to have stepped off of anything in the area where he was found hanging from a tree limb about 12 feet high. His feet were dangling about two feet off the ground, and his hands were not bound, Lucas said.

"Life matters," Lucas told the crowd. "I commit to you, as the sheriff of Claiborne County, that I will not allow the shadows of the past to cast a shadow on the future."

The results of an autopsy by the Mississippi Crime Lab could take days; investigators expect to have preliminary information about the cause of death next week, Alway said. Byrd's body was released Friday to Rollins Funeral Home in Port Gibson, said Mississippi Department of Public Safety spokesman Warren Strain. An employee at Rollins said funeral arrangements will be made early next week.

Riverwalk Casino is located near Vicksburg.

Byrd worked on offshore oil rigs and enjoyed gambling in casinos in his off time after getting out of prison, where he served 26 years for fatally shooting a woman while robbing $101 from her convenience store in 1980.

He wasn't the type to commit suicide, friends and family said.

"He tried to turn his life around. He was going to church every Sunday," said his stepsister, Tracy Wilson. "Anybody could have done this. I just don't see him doing it to himself."

Lora McDaniel, a high school classmate who went to church with Byrd and his family, said "he always had a smile on his face. I just can't see him committing suicide."

"He was a quiet man. He didn't bother nobody," added Anita Smith, another high school classmate. "He had been out nine years and all of the sudden this happens to him? Impossible."

Smith said she is planning to participate in a march Monday in Port Gibson to protest Byrd's death.

Mississippi NAACP President Derrick Johnson suggested that it's too early for that.

"We do not want to rush to judgment. We just want to make sure there's a thorough federal, state and local investigation," Johnson said.

The hanging is being investigated by the FBI, the Justice Department's Civil Rights Division and the United States Attorney's office as well as the Mississippi Bureau of Investigation. These officials are on the scene to determine if it's a potential hate crime or other violation of federal law, U.S. Attorney General Eric Holder said.

Video surveillance was recovered showing Byrd at the Riverwalk Casino on March 2, Vicksburg Police Chief Walter Armstrong said.

Rep. Bennie Thompson (D-MS) is calling upon the FBI to investigate this horrible tragedy.

"We didn't see anything of significance on the tape. He was just walking around the casino. We did not see him after that," Armstrong said.

Claiborne County sits on the bluffs of the Mississippi River, with Natchez to the south and Vicksburg to the north. A sign leading into Port Gibson, the county seat, says Union Gen. Ulysses S. Grant declared the town "too beautiful to burn" during the Civil War. About 85 percent of the county's 9,250 residents are African-American.

Signs hanging above the main street say "Port Gibson. A Real Life Postcard." The town still boasts several stately, columned mansions that are either private homes or bed-and-breakfast inns, but is mostly dotted with modest houses and trailers in states of disrepair.

Port Gibson is in the district of U.S. Rep. Bennie Thompson, a Democrat and the only black member of Mississippi's congressional delegation. He issued a statement calling on the government to use "every resource available to bring swift justice" if foul play was involved.

"Given the history of the state, it is unavoidable that the hanging of a black man in Mississippi justifiably engenders deeply raw emotions," Thompson said.

What A Drag For Accused White Extremist Murderer!

Glenn Miller (aka Frazier Glenn Miller or Glenn Cross) is a crazy ass White extremist. He's accused of murdering three innocent people at two Jewish centers.

Overland Park, Kansas police are trying to piece together the extremist's motives.

It was revealed that the White extremist love the prostitutes. The male prostitutes. Especially Black ones.

This comes as no surprise that the hateful asshole was trolling for the hoes.

ABC News reports that in the course of their investigation, authorities also learned the stunning details of Miller’s arrest a year earlier. Raleigh police officers had caught Miller in  the back seat of a vehicle, in mid-act with a black male prostitute masquerading as a woman.

“It was pretty shocking,” says McCullough, “because of his personal stances that he had taken and what he was now accused on engaging in.”

McCullough says he has read the police report of the incident but declined to comment on the specifics. “I would rather not go into the details,” he said. “They’re rather salacious. I think the facts speak for themselves and people can draw their own conclusions about how incongruous that is.”

Miller was not charged in connection with the prostitution arrest and no public record of the incident could be located. But in a recorded phone call with the Southern Poverty Law Center last fall, Miller claimed that he had lured the prostitute to the meeting with the intention of beating him.

Eventually, McCullough, the federal prosecutor, would approve a plea deal with Miller recommending a five-year prison sentence in exchange for his cooperation and testimony against his former compatriots. He would serve less than three years of that sentence at a prison in western New York.

“I am not certain that we got 100 percent of what we wanted,” McCullough told WTVD. “He did testify in a couple of cases here in the eastern part of the state, or agreed to testify where the people plead guilty knowing he was going to testify.”

In 1998, Miller was a key witness in a high-profile federal trial that charged more than a dozen white nationalists in an alleged conspiracy to levy war against the United States government. The Department of Justice had called it Operation Clean Sweep. Miller testified that he had received two payments totaling $200,000 from a leader of  the alleged conspiracy, but in the end all of those accused were acquitted and, incredibly, one of the jurors later married one of the defendants.

“His testimony was extremely weak,” says Leonard Zeskind, who tracked Miller’s activities in the 1980′s as research director for the Center for the Democratic Renewal, a civil rights group fighting Klan activities.

“I believe that Miller was essentially playing a game with the feds. And I don’t think he had any intention of becoming a good witness. The guy was a stone-to-the-bone Nazi,” Zeskind says. “He never gave that up. I am on the record as saying the man should have died in prison.”

But McCullough says that nothing would have changed what happened last week in Kansas. Even if he had refused to deal with Miller back in 1987, he would have spent no more than fifteen years in prison.

“We made the deal that we could make at the time and whether it’s right or wrong, it’s really kind of immaterial at this point,” McCullough says. “Human beings are unpredictable. I don’t think there is anybody who could know what he was capable of doing,” he said of the shootings in Kansas. “I certainly never saw that in his personality.  He was a blowhard who liked to be in front of a crowd. He liked to whip the crowd up and get the emotions running high.”

Very little is known of the years Miller spent in Iowa and Nebraska living as Frazier Glenn Cross.

“He asked for protection from both the White Patriot Party people and blacks in prison because he had alienated both groups,” says McCullough.  ”Obviously once he served his sentence he couldn’t go back to where his old compatriots were because he would be at risk.  So we had to put him somewhere safe.”

It’s clear that Cross eventually discarded his assumed identity provided by the federal government and resumed his life as the belligerent, unapologetic white supremacist, Frazier Glenn Miller.

The Klan Working For You!

They are looking out for you!

The racist right still simmers in the age of Barack Obama.

The Southern Poverty Law Center concludes that there are over 1,000 active hate groups in the United States. These groups and online forums are catering to the extremism in America.

A bunch of people who have resentment towards someone's race, gender, sexuality, religion, political and economic standings.

The Klan is one of the oldest domestic terrorist groups. They've slightly increased in the past five years. They are very active in the Midwest and Northeast.

When you got White men who are frustrated with the changing demographics in this country, you will see them go berserk.

The Traditionalist American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan launched a neighborhood watch in the area of Ridge Road in Fairview Township in response to a recent rash of break-ins, said Frank Ancona, the organization’s imperial wizard and president.

Leadership of a local Traditional American Knights chapter contacted the organization’s headquarters in Park Hills, Mo., to find out whether the national organization would sponsor the crime watch, and Ancona said he gave the midstate “klavern” his blessing.

“It’s just like any neighborhood watch program. It’s not targeting any specific ethnicity. We would report anything we see to law enforcement,” Ancona said. “We don’t hate people. We are an organization who looks out for our race. We believe in racial separation. God created each species after its kind and saw that it was good.”

Residents along Ridge Road woke up to find fliers bearing Ku Klux Klan propaganda at their doorsteps Friday morning.

The fliers include a depiction of a KKK member in a white robe and hood, and a note that says:

“Neighborhood Watch. You can sleep tonight knowing the Klan is awake.”

PennLive obtained a picture of the flier taken by a resident who received it.

PennLive writer Eric Veronikis reports that Fairview Township police Sgt. Davis Holland said police are aware of the propaganda, but would not comment further.

Ancona would not divulge information about the local chapter that distributed the flier; nor would he reveal the names of local leadership or other members of the midstate chapter.

Head of the Klan wants to establish a neighborhood watch.

A number of people recently called the Traditional American Knights hotline from Fairview Township saying they don’t believe the local police department is doing enough to combat a recent string of break-ins in the area, Ancona said.

He said he doesn’t necessarily believe the accusations against the police are true. But he does believe local police departments can get overwhelmed by crime and could use an extra hand looking out for criminals. Hence, the neighborhood watch.

Nine vehicles were reportedly broken into earlier this month at the FedEx facility off Industrial Drive in Fairview Township. Another man broke into several vehicles in the township in March. But he also was caught. And a robbery attempt at a Fairview Township home was foiled in January after police said the homeowner caught him in the act and pinned him to the ground.

The imperial wizard refused to help PennLive reach out to a local leader to discuss the neighborhood watch because only himself and national leadership are permitted to speak with media, he said.

That mandate exists to prevent others from misrepresenting the organization, Ancona said, referencing Frasier Glenn Miller, the reported former grand dragon of the Carolina Knights who allegedly shot and killed three people at a Jewish community center in Overland Park, Kan., a little more than a week ago.

While not affiliated with the Traditionalist American Knights, Ancona, who denounced Miller in the national press following the incident, said the alleged gunman went “rogue” and gave the KKK a black eye.

Ancona continued to soften his organization during an interview with PennLive on Sunday night.

He said members of the group, which has chapters in every state except Hawaii, are neighbors and colleagues who generally can’t discuss their involvement with the Traditionalist American Knights because of the negative light cast upon the KKK.

People can lose jobs and family and friends when they are traced back to the KKK, Ancona said. And that’s because the klan is “somewhat discriminated against,” he said.

Background checks are run on all potential members, Ancona said. And anyone with serious crimes on their records will not be admitted to the Traditionalist American Knights, he said.

Ancona described Pennsylvania as a “strong Yankee state” for his organization with a large membership base. The group’s “realm of greater Pennsylvania” encompasses West Virginia and western New York.

“Members could be the guy who is delivering your pizza. It could be law enforcement from the local sheriff’s office. It could be the nurse taking care of you in the emergency room,” Ancona said.

He stressed that the KKK is not affiliated with the neo-Nazi and skinhead movements. And Ancona said residents of Fairview Township should be relieved the neighborhood watch is underway.

Ancona said the Traditionalist American Knights consider anyone outside of the KKK “an alien.”

“Anyone who is not part of the klan is considered an alien,” Ancona said. “These are things that band us in this brotherhood.”

After the attack of a Jewish center by Glenn Miller (aka Frazier Glenn Cross) members of the Klan are trying to distance themselves from the domestic terrorist.

They considered Miller a snitch and a traitor to the cause.

They want to show the public they're not just proud racists but honest to god citizens.

Rolling laughter....

Kansas City: Is There Another Beltway Shooter?

27 year old man is accused of shooting at vehicles around Kansas City. The shooter would target Interstate 435 and roads near the beltway.

Kansas City metro area was on the edge of a possible beltway shooter.

Around the Interstate 435 beltway and Interstate 470 near Independence, one man posed a threat to the motorists.

The FBI and Kansas City police finally got a break.

Mohammed Pedro Whitaker has been identified as the alleged Kansas City highway shooter and has been charged with 18 felonies from 9 separate incidents around the city metro region.

Whitaker is held on a million bond.

He's going to face at least 25 to life in the iron college for this crime. Although he didn't kill anyone, he did injure people and done criminal mischief. He also fired on federally paid highways.

Police Chief Darryl Forte said at a news conference that the suspect is male and lives in Grandview, a suburb south of the city that is home to the Grandview Triangle, where several highways intersect and where at least six of the reported shootings happened.

Looks like he has no remorse for the actions.

Forte didn’t release the name or age of the suspect. The media would later announce the name. The chief is hoping to discuss the case in further detail at a news conference Friday.

“We’re here now to basically let people know someone has been apprehended,” an upbeat Forte told reporters at an impromptu news conference about 50 yards from a house where the suspect was taken into custody earlier in the day. “I wanted to make sure the residents and those who travel through Kansas City know they’re safe. They’ve been safe the whole time.”

Investigators could be seen searching the single-story four-plex Thursday night, and a tow truck hauled away a green Dodge Neon that was parked behind house, which is about two blocks from Interstate 49 and south of the Grandview Triangle.

The shooter's area span into Missouri and Kansas. Mohammed Whitaker is charged with felonious assault with a deadly weapon.

Forte said the Jackson County prosecutor’s office would determine if there is enough evidence to warrant pressing formal charges.

Detectives and analysts started noticing a pattern two weeks ago after reports of random shootings started coming in. Earlier this week, investigators were looking into about 20 reports of shootings, but that number has fluctuated as some reports were cleared and others came in.

The nice guys. The most dangerous people to ever hold a gun.

Late last week, police said they had connected a dozen shootings to the same person. Forte has said little to this point about how the shootings were linked or what kind of vehicle the suspect drove.

Two of the wounded drivers were shot in the leg and the third was shot in the arm. None of their wounds were considered life-threatening.

Just this week, a White extremist went on a rampage in Overland Park, KS. He ended up killing three individuals. Glenn Frazier Miller (Cross) was a perennial candidate for office. He had notorious ties to the White extremist movement.

He thought he would take out the Jews.

These two men have stirred the pot of extremism. The Southern Poverty Law Center have determined that hate groups are on the rise and its just a matter of time before we see another event happen in America.

The agitators of the media have stroked up extremism. As you can tell, Loserville and the racist right has now a reason to point to the scary Muslims. Also since he's apparently a Black man, it's another one of Obama's sons. Breitfart or The Daily Nothing will automatically assume this man is an Obama supporter or liberal activist.

Cliven Bundy and his feud with the Bureau of Land Management has gotten major airplay and it's potentially another event in which the right wing militias will take arms against federal authorities.

This event and the shooting in Overland Park are precursor of extremism in America.

Some facts about the Kansas City metro area. The population of the city is 483,000.

The city's metro area includes Kansas City, Kansas, Raytown, Lee's Summit, Overland Park, Independence, North Kansas City, Gladstone, Olathe, and Liberty.

Interstates 29, 35, 49 and 70 are the primary highways through the city. Interstate 435 serves as the beltway through Kansas City. Other highways include Interstates 470, 670, and 635 which serve as bypasses around the metro area.

Country Of Hate!

The extremism is on the rise.

The Southern Poverty Law Center is a civil rights group that monitors active hate groups in the United States. The counterintelligence report notes that there are over 1,000 active hate groups.

Did you know that the states of California, Pennsylvania, New Jersey, Tennessee, Texas, Georgia, Florida, North Carolina, Ohio and New York have the most active hate groups?

You know the usual suspects: The Neo-Nazis, the Klan, the Nation of Islam and Westboro Baptist Church are the gadflies of hate. But did you know that there's active groups like the Council of Conservative Citizens, the websites, individuals like James David Manning, asshat Colin Flaherty and perennial loser extremist Glenn Frazier Cross (aka Glenn Miller) are just as dangerous.

When the Department of Homeland Security report came out in 2009 stating that the election of the first Black president would rile up the extremists, the conservatives dismissed this as a joke?

The Tea Party believes that "da gubmint" is trying to silence their vocal opposition towards Barack Obama's policies.

Did you know about the situation in Nevada?

We had the Bundy Ranch standoff. A cattle rancher was getting airplay on the racist right blogs. That Guy Who Helped Obama Win was a big cheerleader of this Cliven Bundy. The asshole was blaming the president and the Bureau of Land Management were deliberately trying to take the rancher's cattle.

Then the Overland Park shooting by that perennial extremist.

The conservative media was riling up over the knockout game.

The Republican lawmakers are passing legislation that caters to extremists. They are passing staunchly restrictive laws when it comes gay marriage, welfare, abortions and immigration.

Of course the knockout game is getting major play in the media.

What's your thoughts on the rise in extremism?

Kansas City Hate: Perennial Loser Was A White Extremist!

As Overland Park, Kansas police piece together the reason to why a failed candidate for office with ties to White extremists groups kill innocent people. The country is coming to grips of the real reason to why hate exists.

As long as Barack Obama continues to be in the White House, these lunatics will plot attacks against the government and fellow Americans.

The first thing in the BLAME GAME: What political party he supported?

The conservative agitation website Breitfart will automatically conclude that the shooter is a liberal or Democrat.

The conservative agitators will figure that the government is coming for the guns.

The racist right which most conservative agitators disturb figure that one man's quest is heroic and they hope they'll be more to come.

A little bit about Glenn Miller comes from Wikipedia. Miller (pka Fraiser Glenn Cross Jr., Rounder, or Frazier Glenn Miller, Jr. b. Nov 23, 1940),  is a former leader of the defunct North Carolina-based White Patriot Party (formerly known as the Carolina Knights of the Ku Klux Klan). Convicted of criminal charges related to weapons and violation of an injunction against paramilitary activity, he is a perennial candidate for public office.

He is an advocate of white nationalism, white separatism, and anti-Semitic theories; and a critic of homosexuality and Third World immigration into historically White nations.

Miller was named the only suspect for the shooting earlier that day in suburban Kansas City that ended in the death of 3 people. Shootings occurred both at the Jewish Community Center and at retirement home Village Shalom nearby, both located in Overland Park.

The names of the victims of the JCC shooting were released, identifying victims as Dr. William Lewis Corporon and his grandson, 14-year-old Reat Griffin Underwood. Both were United Methodist Christians.

White extremist wanted to win a seat in Congress. Thank god he failed.

The name of the woman shot at Village Shalom has not yet been released. Two others had been shot at, but escaped without wounds. Miller was found later outside an elementary school nearby and was immediately declared a suspect. Authorities told reporters that Miller had shouted "Heil Hitler" numerous times during shooting and arrest.

Miller was interviewed on The Alan Colmes Show, The David Packman Show, and by phone on The Distorted View Show and The Howard Stern Show.

Despite legal challenges from Missouri Attorney General Chris Koster and the Missouri Broadcasters Association's disputing Miller's status as a bona fide candidate for office, the Federal Communications Commission (FCC) determined there exists no lawful recourse for stations that preferred not to air Miller's ads because of their offensive content.

David Packman of The David Packman show is on FreeSpeech TV and a featured contributor for Addicting Info. He was interviewed the White extremist on his failed bid for U.S. Senate.

The Associated Press added that Frazier Glenn Cross, 73, of Aurora, Mo., was booked into Johnson County jail on a preliminary charge of first-degree murder after the attacks Sunday in Overland Park.

At a news conference Sunday afternoon, Overland Park police Chief John Douglass declined to publicly identify the man suspected in the attacks. But an official at a suburban Kansas City jail, speaking on the condition of anonymity because he wasn't authorized to discuss the case, identified the suspect as Cross.

Douglass said the suspect made several statements to police, "but it's too early to tell you what he may or may not have said" during the attacks. He also said it was too early in the investigation to determine whether he had an anti-Semitic motive. The Jewish festival of Passover begins Monday.

"We are investigating it as a hate crime. We're investigating it as a criminal act. We haven't ruled out anything. ... Again, we're three hours into it," he said Sunday.

SITE, a U.S.-based terror monitoring group, described the suspect as a known and vocal anti-Semite who frequently calls for genocide against Jews.

Police said the attacks happened within minutes of one another. At around 1 p.m. a gunman shot two people in the parking lot behind the Jewish Community Center of Greater Kansas City. He then drove a few blocks away to a retirement community, Village Shalom, and gunned down a woman or girl there, Douglass said. Officers arrested him in an elementary school parking lot a short time later.

Police said the attacks at both sites happened outside and the gunman never entered any buildings. Douglass said the gunman also shot at two other people during the attacks, but missed.

Authorities declined to release the victims' names pending notification of their relatives. However, the family of the first two victims released a statement identifying them as Dr. William Lewis Corporon, who died at the scene, and his 14-year-old grandson, Reat Griffin Underwood, who died at Overland Park Regional Medical Center.

They were both Christian, and the family thanked members of their church congregation, among others, for their support.

"We take comfort knowing they are together in Heaven," the family said. It asked for privacy to mourn.

Rebecca Sturtevant, a hospital spokeswoman, said family members told her Corporon had taken his grandson to the community center so that the boy could try out for a singing competition for high school students. Reat was a freshman at Blue Valley High School and an Eagle Scout.

Cross is also known as Frazier Glenn Miller. A public records search shows he has used both names, but he refers to himself on his website as Glenn Miller and went by the name Frazier Glenn Miller in 2006 and 2010 campaigns for public office.

Cross lives in a small single-story home bordered on three sides with barbed wire fences in the small southwest Missouri town of Aurora, some 180 miles south of Overland Park. A red Chevrolet adorned with Confederate flag stickers was parked outside. An AP reporter knocked on the front door of the house early Monday, but no one answered.

The Southern Poverty Law Center, which tracks hate groups, said it reached his wife, Marge, by phone and that she said authorities had been to their home and told her that her husband had been arrested in Sunday's attacks.

The law center said the suspect has been involved in the white supremacist movement for most of his life. He founded the Carolina Knights of the Ku Klux Klan and was its "grand dragon" in the 1980s. The Army veteran and retired truck driver later founded another white supremacist group, the White Patriot Party, the center said.

He was the subject of a nationwide manhunt in 1987 for violating the terms of his bond while appealing a North Carolina conviction for operating a paramilitary camp. The search ended after federal agents found him and three other men in an Ozark mobile home, which was filled with hand grenades, automatic weapons and thousands of rounds of ammunition. He ran for U.S. House in 2006 and the U.S. Senate in 2010, espousing a white power platform each time.

SITE said Monday that the suspect is a prominent member of the Vanguard News Network and has posted thousands of messages — including frequent calls for genocide against Jews — on the neo-Nazi forum's website. His most recent post was Saturday.

President Barack Obama called the shootings "horrific" and said in a statement, "While we do not know all of the details surrounding today's shooting, the initial reports are heartbreaking." The Jewish Community Center offered condolences to the victims' families on its Facebook page.

Prime Minister Binyamin Netanyahu sent his condolences to the families of those killed in Sunday's shootings at two Jewish centers in Overland Park Kansas. "We condemn the shootings which, according to all the signs, were perpetrated out of hatred for Jews," Netanyahu said Monday of the attack, allegedly carried out by a former leader of the Ku Klux Klan.

A police official confirmed that the gunman used a shotgun in the shootings, and investigators were also determining whether a handgun and an assault rifle were also used.

We here at Journal de la Reyna send our condolences to those who were lost in this senseless tragedy.

Take extreme discretion in listening to Miller's political ads and his interview with David Packman.

Hank Aaron: It Doesn't Surprise Me That [Republicans] Acting Like Those Bigots Who Threaten Me!

It ain't too hard to see, but I believe that the Republicans are acting just like those guys with the hoods on. - Hank Aaron.compares the Republicans and Tea Party to the Ku Klux Klan.

Baseball legend compares the inept Republicans to the Klan.

I couldn't agree with him more. It's the antics by the likes of Mitch McConnell, Louie Gohmert, and those annoying ass agitators on Loserville and talk radio that gives Hank Aaron that reason to believe race contributes to the president's proposals being shut down.

Speaking to USA Today Tuesday on the 40th anniversary of his then record-breaking 715th home run, the 80-year-old Aaron said that Republicans are hindering Obama’s job performance.

“Sure, this country has a black president, but when you look at a black president, President Obama is left with his foot stuck in the mud from all of the Republicans with the way he’s treated,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.

Aaron continued: “The bigger difference is that back then they had hoods. Now they have neckties and starched shirts.”

Aaron stated that there is still room for improvement for race relations in the U.S.

“We have moved in the right direction, and there have been improvements, but we still have a long ways to go in the country,” Aaron told USA Today Sports.

Aaron goes on to describe the racist letters he has kept for decades as he was chasing Babe Ruth’s home run record.

“To remind myself that we are not that far removed from when I was chasing the record,” Aaron explained to USA Today Sports. “If you think that, you are fooling yourself. A lot of things have happened in this country, but we have so far to go. There’s not a whole lot that has changed.”

Aaron was honored before the Braves game against the New York Mets on Tuesday night with a ceremony commemorating the 40th anniversary of his 715th home run, the one that pushed him past Babe Ruth and gave him the major league record.

Aaron finished with 755 home runs, but was eventually passed on the career list by Barry Bonds, whose career was tarnished by steroids allegations. Bonds has 762 homers, but many baseball fans don’t accept that number and stand by Aaron as the true record-holder.

Speaking with reporters after the ceremony, Selig was asked about Aaron being called the true home run king.

“I’m always in a sensitive spot there, but I’ve said that myself and I’ll just leave it at that,” Selig said.

During the ceremony Braves chairman Terry McGuirk said Aaron “set the home-run record the old-fashioned way” and added “You will always be the home run king of all time.”

Retired Braves broadcaster Pete Van Wieren earned a big ovation when he said Aaron is “still recognized as baseball’s true home run king.”

Mr. Aaron forgot that we Republicans freed them slaves - John Boehner and Mitch McConnell.

Aaron, 80, was given a standing ovation in the ceremony before the game. Aaron broke Ruth’s record with his homer on April 8, 1974, off the Dodgers’ Al Downing.

Downing attended the ceremony and threw out the first pitch. Some of Aaron’s 1974 teammates returned, including Dusty Baker, who was on-deck when the record-breaking homer was hit, Ralph Garr, Phil Niekro, Ron Reed, Marty Perez and Tom House, who caught the homer in the bullpen.

Aaron thanked fans “for all your kindness all these many years.” Aaron, recovering from recent hip-replacement surgery, used a walker.

“The game of baseball was a way that I relaxed myself each year that I went on the field for 23 years,”
Aaron said. “I gave baseball everything that I had, everything, every ounce of my ability to play the game I tried to play to make you the fans appreciate me more. Thank you.”

Selig, Aaron’s longtime friend, established the Hank Aaron Award in 1999 to honor the top hitter in each league.

He called Aaron’s 715th homer “the most famous and treasured record in American sports.”

Selig said Aaron was a worthy successor to Ruth as home-run king “because he is the living embodiment of the American spirit. … Baseball is forever our national pastime because of people like Henry Aaron.”

The Braves wore their 1970s era white-and-blue uniforms, complete with small “a” caps, in tribute to Aaron.

The Braves are wearing an Aaron 40th anniversary patch on their uniform sleeves this season.

The numbers “715″ were painted on the outfield grass, stretching from left-center to right-center.

The Braves unveiled Aaron jerseys from other college and professional teams in the Atlanta area. Falcons owner Arthur Blank, former Georgia coach and athletic director Vince Dooley and former Georgia Tech coach Bill Curry were among those who stood with their teams’ jerseys adorned with Aaron’s name and No. 44.

The outfield was filled with fans, each wearing blue 44 Braves jerseys and each holding baseball-shaped signs bearing numbers from 1 to 715.
