Cross Burning Protest in Livermore Sparks Public Dissent
An attempted Klucker cross burned near Livermore’s stockyards last Friday night. Citizens opposed to the Klan moved the cross to the liberty pole, drenched it with coal oil, and burned it in an open display. The Gazette criticizes the act, urging opposition to the Klucks while noting the event may boost their publicity. Local reaction splits between those who condemn and those who endorse public demonstrations against them. The piece condemns sensational displays and calls for the Klucks to fade away.
