So what do you propose to do about it?

Cowards like that are not going to do anything. That might put them at risk which is why Black folks pay them little mind. Notice where they hung those posters. Not in a neighborhood where they might actually run into a Black person but some where they felt safe and even then they did it under cover of darkness.

I already knew that, it was a rhetorical question.

I've never seen these folks hand out fliers on Cecil B. & Broad in broad daylight, or on Diamond Street.

There's about 5 KSS slicks up in my neighborhood, although the hipsters have already defaced them.

Generally speaking, maybe if certain races of people knew how to behave with some civility, groups like KSS wouldn't pop up. There's always a good reason that groups like this exist. The Black Panthers had some good reasons for forming also.

Strange. What does "Dangerous Minority Mean?" From the picture, I get they are saying "Dangerous African Americans/Blacks". I don't see another person of color on that poster. Maybe showing the Killer of the officer and Mumia Abu-Jamal, but their are other races that kill.

This poster needs to be removed, it is offensive.

i'm pretty sure the whole "guns don't kill people, dangerous minorities do" is an old line from family guy. completely politically incorrect.

those posters should absolutely be torn down.
