As promised earlier this week, a handful of very sad souls identifying themselves as members of the KKK showed up on Ole Miss' campus before the Rebels' game with LSU today to protest the school's official banishment of the traditional anthem, "From Dixie With Love," from the marching band's repertoire. School officials said this week there was nothing they could do to keep the Klan from showing up if the proceedings remained nonviolent, and that held up for about 10 minutes before university police went ahead and escorted the retro hate clowns from the premises -- possibly for their own protection, in the face of approximately 20 times as many counter-protestors rallied against them (emphasis added):

OXFORD — About a dozen hooded Ku Klux Klan members rallied briefly at Ole Miss before Saturday’s football game with No. 10 LSU.

The members of the Mississippi White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan spent about 10 minutes waving flags, displaying Nazi-style salutes and occasionally gesturing at a group of about 250 hecklers that included young children. They were protesting the school's decision to drop a pep song that included "Dixie."

They came, they saw, they slinked away with their poly satin sashes between their legs as a crowd in "Turn Your Back On Hate" t-shirts sauntered off to a "Dixie"-free game. The song, stunningly, will not be reinstated.
