"Woman killed during KKK initiation rite"
http://www.abc.net.au/news/stories/2...13/2418335.htm
Apologies for spamming, if this has been mentioned already. I did a quick scan and saw nothing on the list recently. A woman travelled to Louisiana to participate in an initiation ritual, changed her mind, and was shot dead. Article linked.

Ah, sorry about the title. I copy-pasted from the header at the ABC site. Is it a basic censorship or auto-correct that changed "Mickey Mouse Klub" to "Mickey Mouse"? I'm sorry if it gave anyone the wrong idea.
Edit: Ah, I see. Yes, auto-correct. Is there any reason in particular for this one? I can't imagine how "Mickey Mouse Klub" is any more or less PC than the Kay Kay Kay it alludes to...

That is the most surreal title I have seen in recent memory.
I'm conflicted. I dislike censorship on moral grounds, but without it I would never have experienced this particular moment as I try not to fall out of my chair laughing. Curious.

i saw this on the news. Fucked up to say the least. And by the way, this happened in the "Florida Parishes"...very far from where i live. Just like the Jena 6 which also happened on the other side of state from where i live.

It's a tad bit frightening that they knew how to clean the site so thoroughly, almost as if they've used that skill before.
We should sticky this thread to see the reactions of the members who have no idea about what the gnet censor does to Klondike killers klub(no the gnet censor didn't do that, I censored myself).

Yeah, I was attempting sort of a conspiracy edge to it.

It's still stupid. White supremacists aren't going to want to hang around a Goth forum with a bunch of liberals, and if they decide to troll, we have moderators...
I think.
