A group identifying itself as the KKK has distributed flyers in Jacksonville, Florida communities intending to urge people to โsupport gay bashing.โ
According to the leaflets, doing so will โstop AIDS.โ
Towards the bottom of the page, it reads: โHomosexual men and their sexual acts are disgusting and inhuman,โadding, โban non-white immigration,โ โoutlaw Haitians,โ and โdeport mud people.โ
Jimmy Midyette, of the Jacksonville Coalition for Equality, posted one of the fliers to Facebook, writing:

โThese flyers have begun to appear at the homes of LGBT people โ and surely others โ in Jacksonville.
โThis is an unfortunate consequence of our recent success. Both with marriage equality and the progress weโre making on equality in Jacksonville, we sadly can expect the vocal minority to freak out.
โBetween this and the bomb threat made yesterday, our vigilance is required.โ
Similar fliers were reported in Louisiana last summer, calling for people to โstop AIDSโ by slaughtering gays.
