Why I Am NOT A Democrat-6: The Ku Klux Klan

   First, a short history of the Klan. History.com says that the KKK began on December 24, 1865 in Pulaski, Tennessee. The word is derived from the Greek word kyklos, meaning circle. In 1867 they began meeting in local branches, calling themselves the “Invisible Empire of the South”. Their first Grand Wizard or Grand Pupa was General Nathan Bedford Forest1* of the Confederate Army who perpetrated the Fort Pillow massacre of surrendered Blacks.
   I say it often: the Democrat party did not create racism, but they certainly perfected it!! How do I come to such a seemingly outlandish conclusion? Because the overwhelming evidence points directly at the Democrat party as the creators of the infamous Ku Klux Klan! If there is a group of people that fits the description of perpetrators of one of the more dastardly sins identified in scripture…it is the KKK:
                     “…inventors of evil things…”        -Romans 1:30
 
And I repeat for emphasis, the KKK is the child of the Democrat Party!!
 
   Allow me to offer two pieces of evidence:
1.
The Congressional report of the ‘Joint Select Committee to Inquire Into the Condition of Affairs in the Late Insurrectionary States’ (a 13 volume set) was first published in 1968 of events that happened primarily in 1871 & 72. In this report, southern states like North & South Carolina, Georgia, and Mississippi offer written records of government interviews of people who testified identifying the KKK as the culprit of the crimes of murder, robbery, intimidation etc., of Blacks & Republicans.  For example on page 97, of Volume 3, South Carolina, the following interview is recorded:
Question.  So far as  your  information  goes,  are  the  persons  who  commit  these  outrages, these young  men,  let  them  be  organized  or  not,  all  of one political party?
Answer: why  I  say  so.  It is  a  sweeping  remark,  it  is  true,  but  almost  nine  hundred  and  ninety- nine  out  of  every  thousand  of  the  decent  people  of  South  Carolina  belong  to  the  democratic  party,  or  to  the  reform  party.  And  when  anything  of  that  sort  is  done,  I  take it  for  granted  that  they (the KKK)  belong  to  the  reform  party,  or  our  party,  the  democratic  party. In South  Carolina  the  republican  party  is  composed  entirely  of  the  colored  people.
Question.  Do  you  include  in  the  nine  hundred  and  ninety-nine  out  of  every  thousand the  men  who  commit  these  outrages  ?
Answer.  Yes,  sir;  I  suppose  they (KKK)  belong  to  our  party,  or  the  democratic  party. 2*
 
This kind of evidence implicating the KKK is repeated in other volumes too:
1.Volume 2, pg 220, North Carolina;
2.Volume 11, pg 286, Mississippi
3.Volume 9, pg 899, Alabama
 Etc., etc., etc.,
 
2.
The testimonies of the Black representatives that I mentioned over the last several tidbits incriminate the Democrats as creators of the KKK and the perpetrators acting under the hoods the White Knights of the Klu Klux Klan.
   For example, South Carolina Representative Robert Brown Elliot regarding a bill before Congress in 1871 to prosecute Klan violence declared: “I have sworn the declared purpose of the Ku Klux organization, and I refer to the official records of nearly every southern state during the past ten months to show how that bloody purpose has in part been executed. This bill will tend in some degree to prevent its full achievement.” Brown Elliot continues: “The White Republican of the South is also hunted down and murdered or scourged for his opinion’s sake, and during the past two years, more than 600 men of the south of both races have perished in my State alone. Yet, sir, it is true that these masked murderers strike chiefly at the black race….” “Simply because he exercises his privileges as an American freeman, you (Democrats) would drive him into exile with the pitiless lash, or doom him to swift murder---seeking your revenge for political power lost by moving at midnight along the path of the assassin!”3*
   Obviously, if a bill before Congress regarding Klan violence is being debated, the Klan must indeed exist. And, obviously, because Brown Elliot is a Black Republican (as were all Blacks in Congress at that time) who is accusing the Democrats of doing nothing to quell the violence, nor the murders, this supports the view that Democrats are complicit in the Klan terrorism throughout the South!!!
   In addition, Black Representative James Rapier of Alabama minces no words, and directly accuses the Democrats of Klan violence:
“They (Democrats) were hunting me down as the partridge on the mount, night and day with their Ku Klux Klan, simply because I was a Republican and refused to bow at the foot of their Baal.4*
   In other words, these two Black Republican Representatives link the KKK with the Democrat party. They both are fighting to pass a bill before Congress that is designed to prosecute Klan violence…and the Democrats are all in opposition!!! The only reason the Democrats would oppose such a bill is that they are in agreement with the Klan violence
   In conclusion, the historical interviews and the Black Republican Representatives provide overwhelming and irrefutable evidence that the Democrat party was complicit with the KKK and sanctioned its violence. The Democrat Party is responsible for the Ku Klux Klan!!! 5*
