I wondered if they were fighting over a Chef’s Choice Burger®, but probably not. Just another case of thinnin’ the herd!!

So, what would you call what the White guy who used a hammer on his victims, culling the clan?

S.O.S.
concerned citizen

No, actually, there’s no evidence or inference that his victims were Klan members. So, in that case, I’d call it a reprehensible and unnecessary act. But thanks for asking!
NWA

Wrong clan concerned “whatever.” I’m speaking of the clan y’alls momma comes from. Not the klan yo mommas baby daddy come from.
