Black Man wears KKK Robe in City Council Meeting

LOS ANGELES -- City Council chambers went dark early Wednesday after a man refused to remove his More..a white robe and hood before speaking.

It was at least the second day that Michael Hunt, who recently challenged the city's vending ordinance in federal court as a violation of his rights, had worn the outfit to the meeting.

Hunt, an African American, submitted a card to speak during the standard public comment period and was called to the microphone by Councilman Dennis Zine, who was presiding officer.

Mr. Hunt, you're going to have to remove your hood," Zine told Hunt twice.

"Are you refusing to remove your hood? ... Mr. Hunt, we can't hear you. Remove your hood."

Hunt refused to remove his garb, citing First Amendment rights.

When several councilmembers left, apparently out of disgust, the council floor was lost, ending the discussion.
