“You’re upset about it, especially the Ku Klux Klan, and that’s mostly what it was,” Sanders said.
The flyers have themes of KKK recruitment and deportation of immigrants. The flyer News Center 7 obtained encouraged the reporting of all immigrants to ICE, followed by a number to call to learn how to join the KKK.
Many of the flyers also advertise a specific chapter of the hate group, the Trinity White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, with groups in Ohio, Indiana and Kentucky.
The Vandalia police have been made aware of the flyers, but homeowners in the area say they were told there’s not much that officers can do.
News Center 7 will continue to update this story.
