Teacher gives black colleague KKK robe, Confederate flag
A retired teacher in Oklahoma is under fire after he was accused of presenting a black teacher with a Confederate flag and KKK robe as an ill-conceived joke.
Larry Long, who is white, pulled off the thoughtless gag in front of a crowd of about 500 people during a session at last week’s Oklahoma CareerTech Summer Conference in Oklahoma City ...
Long issued an apology on Thursday, explaining that it was a bad joke.
"While there I attempted to make a joke with a colleague whom I respect and admire.
I never intended to convey any racist actions or comments."
Oklahoma Career Tech Director Marcie Mack (who is white) told reporters Wednesday at a press conference ... the two teachers had been colleagues and the black teacher was not angry.
... attendees who witnessed the racially charged incident were told not to tell anyone and instructed to delete video and pics on their phones.

Publically humiliated in front of 500 peers but not angry? Oh, okay Marcie. 
Such bullsh*t.
