I've always Heard the Founder of the KKK was a Democrat....
Yep it was, and they had a pretty good reason for starting it.
If you were beating your wife and kids, the KKK would show up and dust you off a little.
One dusting was usually enough.
But, when some black folks started acting kinda uppity, they branched out and some hot heads started taking things too far and the KKK became the black hating group that it is today.
