Thank you.

Am I saying I support them? No not one bit.
Actually, the original reason was because 6 confederate soldiers came back to their homes in Pulaski Tennessee. The saw a desolate South and decided to change that. The original name was based on the Latin word for "circle", Klu Klus. The changed the name up a bit and called themselves the Ku Klux Klan. Their main objective, at first, was to dress up like dead confederate soldiers, hence the robes, and crash any kind of gathering to bring enjoyment. Shortly after, it turned into a hatred motivated organization led by Nathan Bedford Forrest. He left because he felt like what was being done was wrong. The died out due to some law, cant remember. Had a rising again due to some guy named Simons, cant remember his first name, on top of good ole Stone Mountain. After that, the organization became what we know of it now, hate towards anybody that is not a White Anglo-Saxon Protestant (WASP). I think that's how it went down, i read on the back of a cereal box.
