David Duke arrested in Prague

Well, if he had brought his freshly laundered bed sheet costume with him he could use them instead of the yucky prison issue one.


Here is David Duke teaching BS in Prague and Tony Blair teaching BS at Yale. The education system has a lot to answer for.

PRAGUE (AFP) — A former US Ku Klux Klan chief arrested here on a speaking tour was freed during the night but will be forced to leave the country later Saturday, Czech police said.
David Duke, the former Grand Wizard of the Louisiana-founded Knights of the Ku Klux Klan, arrived in Prague on Friday at the invitation of a local far-right group, Narodni Odpor (National Resistance).
The 59-year-old US citizen had been due to give three lectures in Prague and Brno in the east of the country and present the Czech translation of his 1998 book "My Awakening."
He was arrested Friday afternoon in the Black Eagle restaurant in Prague's old town and questioned for several hours on suspicion of promoting movements seeking the suppression of human rights, police said.
His book contains passages denying the Holocaust, a crime punishable by up to three years in prison in the Czech republic, police spokesman Jan Mikulovsky said.
Duke's lawyer was quoted by the Czech news agency CTK as saying she would lodge a complaint against Prague police.
The Ku Klux Klan is notorious the world over for terrorising black Americans through lynchings, cross burnings and other hate crimes.
It enjoyed a peak membership of about five million in 1925, but since the late 1970s its membership has dwindled to between 3,000 and 6,000.

Gee, I'm sorry I missed him on the street...I might have hit someone for the first time in my life..... Sadly, the ultra-Right and neo-Nazi movement here is large and growing.
