Yes, in 2008, 3 Ohio state troopers based in Sandusky, Ohio (been there, Cedar Point amusement park is fun, fun, fun! the roller coasters are crazy!!!) have been disciplined for taking a picture of one of the troopers dressed in a makeshift KKK outfit. The troopers claim that they were imitating a Dave Chappelle comedy sketch where he portrays a Black, White supremacist (which by the way, is hilarious, but so inappropriate and just plain dumb for officers of the law to duplicate on the job!).Let me point out that the 3 officers are white men, and Dave Chappelle is a black man who was mocking the Klan. Sure, the 3 officers have the right to mockkk the klan too, except this was done as a joke on the eve of the Martin Luther King, Jr. holiday after the troopers had had a discussion about the holiday. None of the 13 troopers assigned to the Sandusky post are black.
They are too grown for this foolishness. I guess they'll have an emergency diversity training class in Sandusky soon. If they need a trainer I'll go if they'll give me a free pass to Cedar Point.
