The Salt Lake Tribune sparked outrage after it ran an editorial cartoon comparing Republican Utah Rep. Burgess Owens to a member of the Klu Klux Klan (KKK).

The cartoon shows Owens pointing toward the southern border with the caption, “They are coming to your neighborhoods!” On the right side of the cartoon, a member of the KKK holds a torch and points toward Owens, saying, “They are coming to your neighborhoods!”

We have heard of "mansplaining" now we have "whitesplaining" from a white man comparing a black man, who grew up under Jim Crow laws, to the KKK.

Awful tone deaf @sltrib @Patbagley. Expect an apology but I won't hold my breathe. pic.twitter.com/NESEchhFEf

I thought Utah was supposed to be one of the most conservative-leaning states in the country?

What the heck is goin' on out there...?

Mormons.

While the general consensus is they are conservative,how can that be true with a Bushhead like Romney being in the leadership?

Just one more con,looking for power.

Democrat media doubling down on black people not on the democrat plantation are not black.  Whites will be declared black to take their place, like slick willy!  Democrats are giving up lieing and coming out of the closet.  They still love the good ole lynchin days, now a days its called purging, and they are quite busy at it.

That has been the case since the DNC outright bought black preachers and churches. There is NO ONE more defiled in black communities than black conservatives. Child molesters are treated better.

I offer a tip of my hat to all the black men and women who are brave enough to stand up for what they believe. It takes a special kind of courage to go against the popular opinion of your own people,and conservative blacks are lower on the black social ladder than child molesters.
