Not the brightest bulbs in the bunch.
Two Mississippi Ku Klux Klan members are facing federal charges after they showed up at the University of Mississippi to protest the school's decision to remove the Mississippi flag from campus because it contains the controversial Confederate flag:
Two Ku Klux Klan members face federal weapons charges after police say they had guns in a truck parked at the University of Mississippi.
University police on Thursday arrested Kyler Campbell and Virgil Dennison. An FBI agent said in federal court records that the men are Klan members.
Campbell and Dennison -- who are not students -- protested as the faculty senate adopted a resolution asking university administrators to remove the state flag because it has the Confederate battle emblem.
Hats off to police for being vigilant about two members of a hate group being on campus AND bringing guns with them.
