Viral video from BLM protest in Branson shows woman honoring KKK

A video of a woman who was sitting on the parking lot of Dixie Outfitters Sunday night during a Black Lives Matter protest has gone viral. As of Monday afternoon, the video has more than 100,000 views and was shared more than 3,500 times. On Twitter, the video has been viewed more than 2.4 million times.

In the video, a woman sitting on the tailgate of a truck with a Confederate flag attached and wearing a camouflage Make America Great Again cap gets into a heated confrontation with a Black LIves Matter demonstrator.

The woman, who told the News-Leader her name is Kathy Bennett of Branson, stood up and shouted to the demonstrators, "I will teach my grandkids to hate you all."

Then she said "suck on this" and shrouded herself with a Confederate flag. Bennett then turned around, made a fist and said, "KKK belief."

Hopefully the parents will cut the Kool-Aid drinking grandma away from any contact with her grandchildren so they aren't raised to be hateful bigots.

Seriously. One or both parents is dead or in jail probably. And Harrison, AR is only 30 miles from Branson. Big KKK region but Harrison is the hotspot.

I don’t even want to watch the vid. I’ve seen it played out too many times when Obama was pres. These fucking morons WILL AND DO teach their children and grandchildren to be this way! People have called me out here for this saying that is not how is goes...but the truth is, the racism is ROOTED.

IT IS PASSED FROM GENERATION TO GENERATION.
