Residents on edge after KKK cards appear in yards with Biden signs in Tennessee

Residents of a Tennessee town are on edge after Ku Klux Klan propaganda was found scattered in the yards of homes with political signs expressing support for Joe Biden.
“I was really startled by it and also kind of scared,” Shelbyville resident Breana Green told WPLN News of the moment she noticed a neighbor’s yard littered with 20 “business cards” purporting to be from the white supremacist hate group.
The cards described a “social visit” from the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan and warned, “don’t make the next visit a business call.”
Green said her neighbor’s Biden-Harris yard sign was also destroyed and appeared to have been run over, WSMV reported.
”It’s scary knowing that just supporting a presidential candidate can incite this kind of vandalism,” she told the news station.
