CINNAMINSON — Residents of two Burlington County communities awoke Sunday to find literature from the Ku Klux Klan at their doorsteps, CBS Philly reported.
The fliers — printed on white paper and placed inside plastic bags weighed down with brown rice — urged Cinnaminson and Maple Shade residents to “love your own race” and to “stop homosexuality and race mixing,” according to the report.
The fliers reportedly were found along both Lenola Road in Cinnaminson and South Boulevard Avenue in Maple Shade, the report said.
Maple Shade police received a complaint about the KKK messages from a resident and found additional fliers at homes and a closed business, NBCPhiladelphia.com reported.
It was unclear how many residents had received the fliers. The New Jersey chapter of the NAACP has condemned the fliers as a hate crime, the report said.
How would you react? Some neighbors in Cinnaminson are finding these KKK fliers in their driveways. I’ll have the story tonight @CBSPhilly. pic.twitter.com/SKfw6G8ns7
