How many times have you actually seen members of the Klan in their white sheets?

Live and in person? Once, back in the 50's.....and I live not far from a town that had a large sign stating "The KKK welcomes you to Kershaw."

The joke in Arkansas is that a klan rally is known as an Arkansas toga party.
We also have Oklahoma ballets.
And we have Alabama Cadillacs.
We put our Louisiana dime novels in our Arkansas briefcases.

Weren't members of the Klan, per se. The nitwits wearing the bedsheets I saw were the Aryan Nations queers up in the Idaho panhandle. Does that count?

A week after I got to Ft Campbell Ky back in 1981 I had a free weekend and hitched a ride with the unit arms room guy to go to the local hobby shop to see what models they had to sell. We got as far as Gate 4 from the main gate and just outside the fence line was a group of KKK members standing in front protesting something. It didn't have to do with US on Ft Campbell  but the loudest of them were all the women as we drove by.

That panhandle is a hotbed for the Aryan Nation.

Decades ago I saw a billboard in Wilkseboro, NC that had a KKK in full regalia, rearing horse, with "Welcome to Klan Country".  That's as real as I've ever seen.

Only if he was wearing his KKK dress uniform.

I saw a skinhead at Harbor Freight a few months ago.

Some years back when I was a restaurant manager I had a skinhead in the store threatening to kill some idiot urban cowboy that had been harassing his sister (who was actually a very sweet young lady, family notwithstanding).

"Liberalism is an essentially feminine, submissive world view. Perhaps a better adjective than feminine is infantile. It is the world view of men who do not have the moral toughness, the spiritual strength to stand up and do single combat with life, who cannot adjust to the reality that the world is not a huge, pink-and-blue, padded nursery in which the lions lie down with the lambs and everyone lives happily ever after."

In 1973, some friends and I were cruising around central Kentucky.  Drove by a park in the late evening and saw a big bonfire in the distance.  Thinking it was probably a music festival, we drove in toward it.  Nope.  It was a Klan rally of some sort.  I whipped my Dodge Dart around as quick as I could and zoomed back to Lexington.

Living in DC at the time, back in the 90s, I went down to watch the fun when the Klan was supposed to march one weekend.  Nothing happened; we later learned that something like 10 had shown up, no one wanted to go through with it, and the leader's mother was later quoted as calling him a "chicken" in the media.

I've met some before, knew one's son very well back in high school.  They did sheet up for their little late-night get-togthers, and once in a blue moon there'd be a half-dozen of them dressed up in the paper protesting some damn' thing or other (Probably bussing, but since I rode a bus anyway to the county's one big consolidated high school, it was an issue with no personal effect on me whatsoever).  I never saw any of them in sheets, though, in a first-person in-the-flesh sense.

No. They're real. A klaven (is that the correct term?) is in a town about 6 miles from here. They don't do anything that I know of.

I have never encountered the KKK, but I have read a great deal about them. They peaked in the 1920s and operated mainly out of Indiana. Yes, a non-Southern state. The KKK of the 1920s attacked and killed many Whites. They were seen as either alcoholics, bootleggers, or adulterers.

That's correct. The hung Blacks, too. And the town to which I referred is 6 miles from the Indiana border.

The KKK targeted many Blacks in the 1920s. Many Catholics, Jews, and European immigrants were targeted as well.
