A video put up on YouTube by Ben Holder today on the 1979 KKK and historical marker about the “Greensboro Massacre.”
"I have always wanted to ask Nelson Johnson why he seemed so surprised that people were killed after taunting the historically violent KKK. They went to disrupt the KKK's movie night and were armed with guns. They burned the rebel flag and then made Death to the Klan posters and promoted the event. What exactly did he think would come of it? It's like I always tell my kids. Do stupid stuff, end up in stupid places. I should take this clip to the council meeting tonight to show the entire picture of the events that happened."
