Former KKK Leader Says He's Not Racist And Took A Bunch Of Pictures With Black People To Prove It
Daily Mail- A former Imperial Wizard of the Ku Klux Klan who now lives in Belize, alongside the very race of people he fought to segregate, has told Daily Mail Online: ‘I don’t hate blacks… Ain’t that something?’ Breaking his 30-year silence Bill Wilkinson – once the most powerful white supremacist in the world – hit back at claims he is a racist. Speaking from the sun-drenched hotel resort he owns and where Daily Mail Online tracked him down, Wilkinson said: ‘Don’t call me racist, I don’t hate blacks. ‘I never have hated blacks, I still don’t hate blacks, I don’t hate anyone.’ But in a baffling contradiction Wilkinson added that he had not ‘changed’ since his KKK days. He said: ‘I’m just a Bible-crashing segregationist. I still believe in segregation, that’s how it should be. ‘God has commanded me not to mix with other races. ‘I have not changed, I’m the same man I always have been. ‘I wouldn’t let one [a black person] marry my children or my grandchildren.’ Wilkinson owns a multi-millionaire dollar holiday resort in San Pedro on the island of Amergris Caye, living alongside the island’s majority black population – the same race of people he fought to segregate in the 1970s and 80s. Yesterday Daily Mail Online revealed that he had been discovered. In the wake of the disclosure, he took Daily Mail Online on a tour of his hometown of San Pedro, to ‘show how I am with the blacks’. The 72-year-old – who served as Imperial Wizard of the Invisible Empire of the Knights of the KKK from 1975 to 1984 – reveals he is now ‘happy’ living among the island’s mostly Black, Mayan and Hispanic population. Wilkinson said: ‘Life is real good, I love the island, it’s full of very friendly people. ‘I enjoy scuba diving, that’s what I came here for, snorkeling, fishing. ‘People here know about my past but they don’t care, they accept me for who I am.’ Astonishingly Wilkinson – who runs the Seven Seas Resort in the popular tourist destination – says he doesn’t believe he is ‘mixing’ with other races by living in Belize.
Well how do you like that! That’s a win for man kind right there. If a former leader of the KKK can turn his life around and no longer be racist then what’s to say the rest of the world can’t? It gives the world hope that one day we can all co-exist. He doesn’t hate black people! You saw the pictures! He’s surrounded by black people. He loves them and they love him. Those first few pictures are laugh out loud funny. You can almost see the wheels turning in his head like, “Okay, so I’m claiming to no longer hate black people despite once being the most powerful white supremacist on the planet. How can I go about making it look like I’m connecting with these black people? Oh, I got it. Fist bumps. Black people love fist bumps” So that’s exactly what he did. Fist bumps for everybody! It’s refreshing to see. People getting along with people. That’s all anybody wants. Oh wait, what’s that former KKK leader who says he’s no longer racist? You wanna say something?
He said: ‘I’m just a Bible-crashing segregationist. I still believe in segregation, that’s how it should be. ‘God has commanded me not to mix with other races. ‘I have not changed, I’m the same man I always have been. ‘I wouldn’t let one [a black person] marry my children or my grandchildren.’
Annnnnd we’re back to him just being a KKK dude who hates black people. Takes some serious balls to say he’s changed and then in the next breath say he’s been the same all along. He had me convinced there for a second. The fist bumps and the lady holding him up like a small child. Or I guess in his eyes he’s not racist, ya know, if you take all of the logic out of the scenario. He doesn’t hate black people and he’s not racist. He just thinks segregation is how it should be and that black and white people shouldn’t date or have children. Got it. But he’s totally not racist, guys.
