From The Tennessean:And in very related news from CNN.com:
Whether you're wearing white sheets and burning crosses or wearing suits and serving on Metro Council, the message is the same.

The promise of living with hope and thanksgiving / Is born of our loving our friends and our labor. / The promise of growing with faith and with knowing / Is born of our sharing our love with our neighbor. / The promise of living, the promise of growing / Is born of our singing in joy and thanksgiving. // (Horace Everett, Aaron Copland's "The Tender Land")

My parents once lived in an apartment above the Klan's headquarters in Evansville. Mom never felt very safe. I believe if they really want to make a statement, they should quit hiding behind white suits!
Jeff..I don't think comparing council members to the KKK is fair. We've talked about this before, a common language is very important for the saftey and security of all. (Immigrants and natives) The legacy of the KKK, (which was started in your home state) is not what the Metro Council is about. We'll talk later, love you....Dad
I agree that being in the KKK and voting "yes" on an English-only law is not the same, because the Klan is an organization that uses violence to send its messages.
I, however, do think that both parties send the same message--that Hispanic immigrants are unwelcome here.
