Anonymous helps take down up to 5,500 ISIS-affiliated accounts on Twitter

I don't usually agree with Anonymous, but I support this effort.

Lexington Democratic Mayor Jim Gray denies he is a KKK member...

Hmm...

Via USA Today:

The mayor of Lexington, Ky., says he's not a member of the Ku Klux Klan. Anonymous postings saying otherwise are "false, insulting and ridiculous," Jim Gray said in a statement on Monday.
Gray, the city's Democratic mayor, was responding to the release of names of purported KKK members by someone claiming to be with the hacktivist group Anonymous.
