Khloé Kardashian Incites Controversy for 'KKK' Joke on Instagram
When Khloé Kardashian posted a meme to her Instagram account Tuesday, Nov. 11, we have to wonder what she was thinking. The image featured Khloé with her sisters Kim and Kourtney Kardashian all wearing white. It was captioned, "The only KKK ever to let black men in," and Khloé's comment was one word: "True."

Making any comparison or reference to the Ku Klux Klan, an extremist white supremacist group, is thought to be in really bad taste.
