The KKK in Spain

[Gunni]

Ok here´s the story of when I met the KKK in Spain!
It was on Thursday a week ago in Sevilla. I had gone there with my gf (who is black) over eastern. Early on thursday morning we where looking for a place to have brekfast, walk around this corner and what do I see? Four guys in white hoods!! I of course let go of here hand, pushed her to them and ran for my life....J/K
No we just quickly turned back and walked the other way, around another corner and then we saw this...

Gunni are you spanish? this must be a joke, of course is not KKK, it's called "Semana Santa" in Spain (Holy Week in english).
Here is the info in english and some pics:

Semana Santa (holy week/easter) has been one of the most important celebrations in Seville for centuries.
The Cofradías (Brotherhoods or Fraternities) process in penitence through the (many narrow) streets of the city, from their church to the Cathedral and back.

A public and multitudinous catechisis is performed in the streets around the sacred images of the brotherhoods, whose pasos (floats) represent the distinct stages of the Passion, Death and Resurrection of Jesus Christ.

Most brotherhoods carry two floats: a float with a Christ, representing one of the well known biblic scenes, in between the Last Supper and His Resurrection, and a float with a Dolorosa (Mary the Virgin in pain) under a canopy.
Some brotherhoods carry three floats, like the so-called: El Amor, La Cena, San Benito, or la Trinidad, others have just one like Santa Marta, La Quinta Angustia, la Soledad de San Buenaventura, or la Soledad de San Lorenzo.

Resuming, in the eight days of Semana Santa, a total of 57 brotherhoods, carry their 116 floats from their church to the Cathedral and back, in the company of around 60,000 brothers participating in their different appearances: Nazarenos (Nazarenes), Penitents, Costaleros (float carriers), Acolytes, etc. The number of spectators may rise up to the impressing number of one million people during the most important moments of Semana Santa in Seville: the early morning of Good Friday which is when the brotherhoods of el Silencio, el Gran Poder, La Macarena, El Calvario, La Esperanza de Triana and los Gitanos set off for their processional penitence to the Cathedral.

My wife said exactly the same thing,
if any Americans come here they must think it's the KKK.

Nearly as bad, its the catholic church

All I know is the fuckers make too much noise and get all the roads closed off where I live, and there was only one old codger and his dog watching the fucking thing.

I think you'll find this was going on before America was even discovered.

Maybe the KKK should change their colours!
