What kind of a person sees people wearing white and think KKK?
I just do not get it.
The kind of person that’s stupid enough to think the KKK is associated with anybody other than Republicans
Robert Byrd. Democrat.
That should be enough.
Now, who is stupid?
Robert Byrd joined the KKK as a young man & left it when he discovered what it really was & denounced it.
KKK stasrted out as Democrats & ended up Republican these days.
Incorreect, I've already crushed this bullshit.
And look we have Northam, and the VA AG.......nope they are still democrats bro.....
and so was Byrd.....he was a Kleagle....you guys lie and act like he joined for a week.....nope bro
Robert Byrd - Wikipedia
According to Byrd, a Klan official told him, "You have a talent for leadership, Bob ... The country needs young men like you in the leadership of the nation." Byrd later recalled, "Suddenly lights flashed in my mind! Someone important had recognized my abilities! I was only 23 or 24 years old, and the thought of a political career had never really hit me. But strike me that night, it did."[17] Byrd became a recruiter and leader of his chapter.[11] When it came time to elect the top officer (Exalted Cyclops) in the local Klan unit, Byrd won unanimously.[11]
In December 1944, Byrd wrote to segregationist Mississippi Senator Theodore G. Bilbo:
I shall never fight in the armed forces with a negro by my side ... Rather I should die a thousand times, and see Old Glory trampled in the dirt never to rise again, than to see this beloved land of ours become degraded by race mongrels, a throwback to the blackest specimen from the wilds.
— Robert C. Byrd, in a letter to Sen. Theodore Bilbo (D-MS), 1944[11][18]
In 1946, Byrd wrote a letter to a Grand Wizard stating, "The Klan is needed today as never before, and I am anxious to see its rebirth here in West Virginia and in every state in the nation."[19] However, when running for the United States House of Representatives in 1952, he announced "After about a year, I became disinterested, quit paying my dues, and dropped my membership in the organization. During the nine years that have followed, I have never been interested in the Klan."
yeah he was a complete racist......far worse than wearing blackface or shouting the N word......he really did hate blacks..for being black
And he was a recruiter AND LEADER.........And exalted Cyclops
what is an exalted Cyclops
Ku Klux Klan titles and vocabulary - Wikipedia
Klan – the basic unit of the Second Era KKK was known simply as a Klan. Its area of jurisdiction was a Klanton which was defined as "extend[ing] in all directions to a distance midway between the location of the Klan and the nearest Klan thereto" unless otherwise directed by the Grand Dragon or Imperial Wizard. The chief officer of a Klan was an Exalted Cyclops and the subordinate officers were known as the Twelve Terrors.[40]
you guys are really really sick people to defend him....and you are the real racist.
