The Act was signed into law on April 20th by Ulysses S. Grant.

And the Klan was still active a hundred years later.

By kkk you mean demokkkrats of course. But that shall not be spoken of about the sainted dems. There is NO truth to the proclamation that the dems started the kkk. None at all. History only counts if your ancestors were slaves.

It was an insurgency after the Civil War that lasted 100 years. To hear liberals clock it, the Civil War did not really end until the mid-1960s.
The war AGAINST Iraq was ended in short order but a foreign funded guerrilla/terrorist movement followed (in part because the US was hamstrung so as not to appear “Imperialist” in the wake of victory). We have been fighting along SIDE Iraqis. The old government was toppled and in no threat of returning.

The IRS did more to stop the KKK than anything else.
The KKK was a ponzi scheme selling insurance and sheets.
If ya wanna stop or slow down a terrorist organization, put the tax man on them.

The Klan, just one of several terrorist organizations of the Democrat Party.
Conservatives - freeing people from the Democrat Plantation since 1861.

As part of anti-Klan laws, many States still have laws on the books requiring that a person’s face may not be concealed.

Wow, did not know about the Klux Act. Bills of Attainder are unconstitutional. Grant said, ah, who cares? And the occupant of the same office continues the tradition.
