The Myth about the Vicitms of the KKK.

Fact: The overwhelming majority of victims of the KKK were White!

Note: This is not an attempt to justify any form of violence. I am simply trying to set the historical record straight.

    There is a modern day myth that the KKK went around looking for innocent Negroes to hang. That the KKK exists for the purpose of persecuting people because of their race. This is taught in schools and via the mass media. Further, it is believed in and perpetuated by the modern day bogus, phony, illegal, and red neck "klans" of today. Most of these fake Klans are made up of the most ignorant people I have ever encountered. These morons know next to nothing about the true history, purposes, and activities of the real KKK. Believing in this myth themselves they disgrace the name of the organization they claim to respect. Their ignorance  is no excuse and they only help the biased anti Klan factions convince the public that this myth is true. I have gotten numerous e-mails from people who believe this myth. They rant and rave about the millions of innocent Negroes killed by the KKK. The figure is rediculous and would have been impossible for the Klan to attain. Yet, somewhere along the line they are getting the impression that there were millions of victims. The fact is that about five thousand people were "Ku Kluxed", as the term goes, by the KKK and most were whipped not executed. Though numerous historical accounts document this, and though it is ignored by the educational system and mass media, the overwhelming majority of victims of the KKK were White! Believe it or not!

    The KKK did not go after people because of their race, contrary to the myths told by the stupid wannabe bogus "klansmen", the biased educational system, and biased mass media of today. The KKK went after corrupt politicians, criminals, and social offenders.

   At this point, if you have not already done so, I urge you to read the first three sub sections of the Historical Information Section of this web page. They will answer many questions you may have and clear up some of the myths you've been told about the Ku Klux Klan.

Some samples of the majority of Klan victims: White people. Time period for the photos below, 1952.

Below: Well known at the time, but, ignored by modern day historians, White victims were the vast majority of KKK victims. Here they are depicted in period book covers and movie posters. White women who were "Ku Kluxed" tended to be immoral women, prostitutes, or women who neglected their children. After a woman was "corrected" she was often given a jar of ointment to begin healing her wounds (and her ways) right away. In "small town America" of the time, the Klansmen and offender would often know each other and could even be related.

    These are just a few examples. This is just the start. I intend to add much more in the future as time allows. It's high time everyone was set straight on the myth that the Ku Klux Klan was founded as an organization whose sole purpose was to victimize the Black race. There were vicitms, but, race was not the deciding factor.

To be continued.
