El Paso police review Ku Klux Klan costume incident
El Paso police investigating whether Ku Klux Klan costume incident broke any laws. The El Paso Police Department is investigating if any laws, including disorderly conduct, were violated by a group dressed as the Ku Klux Klan over the weekend. The NAACP, civic and political leaders have condemned the incident, stating it is not a joking matter given the Klan's history and is not reflective of El Paso. El Paso police Chief Peter Pacillas stated that the KKK's symbols and language represent a history of terror, violence, and racial hatred. He also stated that free expression has limits when it crosses into conduct that threatens public order or the safety of others. The department remains committed to protecting every resident regardless of background and maintaining the safety and dignity of our neighborhoods.
