As if the tension and anger in Ferguson, MO over the death of Michael Brown could not get any higher, the Ku Klux Klan is now adding an even more volatile element to the situation.

Declaring Officer Darren Wilson “a hero,” the Klan’s Missouri chapter has set up a fundraising page for him on their blog. “We need more white cops who are anti-Zog and willing to put Jewish controlled black thugs in their place,” the blog says. “Most cops are cowards and do nothing while 90% of interracial crime is black (and non-white) on white.”

It’s important to note that neither Wilson himself nor anyone associated him was responsible for these fundraising efforts; the Klan chapter had established the fund before Wilson had even been identified, using the justification that “Michael Brown was nothing more than a punk” and that the only reason his death has elicited such sympathy and sorrow is because “The media and others are painting him out to be a ‘good son’ and ‘great kid.’”

However, with unrest already sky high following further clashes between protestors and police last night, this newly-added element will do nothing to calm things down.
