PART of your problem (with your answer) is that the comment about the KKK not controlling the statehouse, courts and/or state police is that in several states the Klan DID control all three levels of state/local government.

Your acknowedgement that the Klan had infiltrated the highest levels of several southern state governments only strengthens my argument that the Confederate flag is a racist symbol.

Thank you for tying that loose end together.

actually, MOST of the states controlled from TOP to BOTTOM were NOT in dixie, but rather in the so-called "blue states".

thus your argument, such as it is, is BUNK & HOKEM!

btw, we southrons are PLEASED that the NATIONAL HQ of the KKK-IDIOTS is in OHIO!
