Missouri Mayor: “I Kind of Agreed” with Frazier Glenn Miller

HeadlineApr 18, 2014

Residents in the town of Marionville, Missouri, are calling for the resignation of their mayor after he made statements supporting the anti-Semitic views of Frazier Glenn Miller, the white supremacist charged with killing three people at two Jewish community sites in Kansas last weekend. Mayor Daniel Clevenger, who was just elected on Tuesday, came under fire after speaking to a local TV station about Miller.

Daniel Clevenger: “He was always nice and friendly and respectful of elder people. You know, he respected his elders greatly, as long as they were the same color as him. … I kind of agreed with him on some things, but I don’t like to express that too much.”
