KKK membership increases with Trump election

Again, you attempt to lend credence to what the KKK says about itself. The KKK remained irrelevant during Obama's administration because they are irrelevant and losing membership. Promoting their propaganda to aid your political "side" is repugnant. Let the irrelevant remain irrelevant, there is nothing true they ever have to say to anybody and nothing good in giving them any credence at any level at any time. Even if you think it "helps" you.

And no, posting a link to a story does not lend anything credence. I never posted support of their statements or said they were true, though you do. Hypocrite much?

That's your excuse for every off the wall theory you post, "I don't really believe it but I thought it was interesting." You did the same for birtherism, pretending you didn't really believe it but still saying "Obama should release the birth certificate just to put an end to the rumors."

The SPLC reported an increase in KKK groups, from 72 in 2014 to 190 last year. I'm sure you think they have an agenda, though.

The number of KKK groups in America more than doubled last year, says new report

After years of apparently dwindling away into the annals of history, the Ku Klux Klan saw something of a resurgence in activity last year, according to a report published by a hate group watchdog.

The number of Klan-affiliated groups in America grew to 190 last year, up from 72 in 2014, according to the Southern Poverty Law Center’s report, titled “The Year in Hate and Extremism.” (On the cover: Donald Trump.)

“The year saw an apparent comeback of Klan groups,” the organization found, with a 164% increase in the number of active groups.
KKK-affiliate groups were still “to some extent genuinely revitalized last year,” the report said, citing the estimated 364 pro-Confederate flag rallies that were held across the country. These rallies were organized after South Carolina decided to take down the Confederate flag from its state grounds in the wake of the murder of nine black parishioners in the state.

Dylan Roof, the suspect in the murders, is an avowed white supremacist and Confederate flag lover.

“The bulk of that anger is coming from beleaguered working-class and, to a lesser extent, middle-class white people, especially the less educated—the very same groups that most vociferously support Trump,” the report reads.

It’s true that today’s Klan is really dozens of different, mostly disconnected groups. Last month, the Southern Poverty Law Center’s Intelligence Project identified 190 active units spread across 31 distinct organizations. Membership in these groups is relatively small and factionalized, with overall participation estimated at fewer than 10,000. (At its peak in the 1920s, Klan membership exceeded 4 million.)

Not the KKK cheering themselves, that's for sure. Anybody lending credence to their claims should be ashamed of themselves. The irrelevant remain irrelevant, they should not be lent relevance because somebody on the "other side" thinks they can use what they have to say to paint the other side bad...

Bingo! My point exactly. The right did it with the BPP when Obama was elected and the left are doing it now.
 
if i understand correctly since they protested the removal of the confederate flag which could have been for any number of reasons the splc immediatly labeled them as kkk.

Am i the only one that finds this idiotic?
 
All of these people sporting the canton of the Confederate flag canton. I don't know how to explain to people that the CSA got PWNED by America.
 
KKK= black panthers. If blacks can have groups fighting for them why can't whites? Oh - what the hell. Both groups have been infiltrated by the feds.
