US white supremacist group threatens Ferguson protesters with 'lethal force'
[Iran Press TV] The American white supremacist group of Ku Klux Klan has threatened protesters in the US city of Ferguson with "lethal force" should their demonstrations become violent.
Members of a Missouri-based branch of Klu Klux Klan on Thursday handed out some threatening fliers around St. Louis County.
"You have awakened a sleeping giant," said one of the fliers.
"The good people of St. Louis County of all races, colors and creeds will not tolerate your threats of violence against our coppers, their families and our communities."
The warning comes ahead of a grand jury decision over the fatal shooting death of unarmed black teenager Michael Brown by white police officer Darren Wilson.
Traditionalist American Knights of the KKK head Frank Ancona said on Wednesday that he has received hundreds of phone calls from people concerned about "random attacks on whites, D.C. sniper-style shootings."
He added that the fliers would educate people on what rights they legally have to use lethal force in self defense.
