Anti-KKK march in Tallahassee and Confederate flag burned

Ryan Ray at SaintPetersBlog has this account of the demonstration:

     A group of around 60 protesters marched from Florida State University to the Capitol this evening in a show of force against recent Ku Klux Klan-related activity in Tallahassee. The event, organized by Students for a Democratic Society, culminated in the burning of a Confederate flag near the steps of the Old Capitol building.
     Referring to recent reports of neglect and abuse in prisons overseen by the Florida Department of Corrections, chants of “DOC, KKK, how many people did you kill today?” and “Indict, convict, send these racist cops to jail; the whole damn system is guilty as hell!” filled College Avenue as the sun set over Downtown Tallahassee.
     A mixture of anti-racist exhortations, militant rhetoric and homespun political economy was voiced over a bullhorn as officers from the Tallahassee Police Department and Florida Department of Law Enforcement looked on, mostly unperturbed.

A group called the Republic of Florida Militia threatened a counter-protest but that didn't happen. I wouldn't recommend anyone visiting their website however it's a real problem in Florida and can't be ignored. You've been warned; here it is.
