"How long did the torture and murder continue before the feds put a stop to it?" The torture and killings didn't stop until well into the 20th century. The klan killed nearly as many Catholics as Blacks for the crime of being a "Papist" or a "Romanist" or an "RC" (do those terms sound familiar?). The good Protestant citizen of many states killed many Irish immigrants. Care to discuss the Mormon persecutions and lynchings?

We need to make up our mind here NL...Were the religious killing Protestant state ( colonies) sponsored like the RC killings in Europe ? Prove it ...
Ohhh BTW this uneducated harpy woman would like to point out the klan did not exist at the time of the formation of the country or faith based colonies ...that came AFTER THE CIVIL WAR. as did the the formation of the mormon church.
Lets not mix up our history here NL...we are talking foundation of America..

The Mormons did their share of killing to be sure. Why bring them into it?

Shown here is a depiction of the murder by Irish Catholics of approximately one hundred Protestants from Loughgall Parish, County Armagh, at the bridge over the River Bann near Portadown, Ulster. This atrocity occurred at the beginning of the Irish Rebellion of 1641. Having held the Protestants as prisoners and tortured them, the Catholics drove them "like hogs" to the bridge, where they were stripped naked and forced into the water below at swordspoint. Survivors of the plunge were shot.
