Похоже что вертеть ее можно как угодно:
Attorney General Jon Bruning said at news conference in Lincoln. "The Constitution does not require law enforcement to employ anyone tied to the KKK."
Хочется задать ему вопрос - Does Constitution prevent law enforcement employ anyone tied to the KKK?
А вот сама история. Сама ККК при этой мне не обсуждается - обсуждаются только аргументы и ссылки на закон со стороны увольнителей.

According to a copy of Caffera's ruling, Henderson was interviewed by a patrol captain in February. He confirmed he had been a member of the Knights Party since June 2004 and made postings on its members-only Web site while off-duty.
Henderson also said he had joined the KKK, according to the arbitrator's report. He did so, he said, for two reasons: His wife had "divorced him for a minority" and the KKK gave him an avenue to vent his frustration.

The state troopers union refused to comment, referring calls to its attorney, Vincent Valentino.
Valentino said Henderson has resigned his Knights Party membership and apologized to the State Patrol commander, Col. Bryan Tuma. The attorney also said Bruning and Tuma blew Henderson's membership and activities out of proportion. "Bob Henderson wasn't running around in a sheet and hood," he said.

Arbitrator Paul J. Caffera, a New York lawyer, last week overturned the firing.
He said Henderson was entitled to his First Amendment rights of free speech and that the state violated the troopers' contract, in part when it fired Henderson "because of his association with the Knights Party ... and the Ku Klux Klan."
