'This isn't welcome.' White supremacist fliers show up on Central Kentucky lawns.

The Scott County sheriff’s office is trying to determine who placed fliers promoting white supremacy in a neighborhood north of Georgetown.

The fliers bearing a swastika and promoting “white pride” were placed in about a dozen lawns in the Mallard Point subdivision late Monday night or early Tuesday morning, said Sgt. Eddie Hart of the Scott County sheriff’s office.

The fliers were placed inside plastic bags with gravel and put in “random” yards “on different streets in the neighborhood,” Hart said. “Not every street got one.”

The fliers have a heading at the top that says “Black Lives Matter.” They continue, “The entire country is tired of your s****. Sick of the lawlessness, sick of the riots, sick of the threats and demands.”

It's Kentucky. The state that keeps voting in Turtle & Rand Paul. A state that now has a surplus of vaccines, since MANY refuse to get vaccinated.

Perhaps not everybody feels that way, but enough of them do to tell me what way Kentucky leans, and will probably always lean.

I'm still confused as to how they voted in a Democratic Governor. That completely escapes me. Must be something wonderful about Bashear, or the guy he ran against was a total nutjob.

Sometimes they go door to door with their "literature" collecting donations.

They must do alright with it or they wouldn't keep coming back.

I stopped in at my Dad's one day. He is in his nineties. He had a little pile of their pamphlets on a table just inside his door. I asked him about them and he told me about the nice young men who came and visited with him. He served them some cold drinks and gave them a $20 donation. He never even looked at their pamphlets, he thought they were church people.
