Since the pictures I posted are much more recent than 1924 it looks to me like the Klan has returned to their roots, so to speak, and have readopted the flag of their founding fathers.

Unless of course you are implying that their founding fathers were pirates as the highest flying flag in your photo would indicate, to suggest that they were returning to "roots" in Dixie is peculiar considering that the modern Klan is headquartered in Indiana. Persons from that state aren't exactly the types with confederate heritage or backgrounds, you know.

Half truths once again, GOP. The American Knights of the Ku Klux Klan may have an office in Indianapolis, I have no idea if it's a headquarters, but what about the Alabama White Knights of the KKK? They're in Alabama. What about the Imperial Klans of America or the America's Invisible Empire Knights of the Ku Klux Klan or the Southern Cross Militant Knights of the Ku Klux Klan? They seem to be in the south. You can't tell me that the Southern White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan or the North Georgia White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan or the Mississippi White Knights of the Ku Klux Klan or the Rebel Knights of the Ku Klux Klan could possibly be headquartered in a Yankee state, can you? Tolerance.org identified 109 separate Klan chapters in the U.S. and over 70% of those were located down south. And they all seem to have an affinity for that confederate flag of yours. I wonder why? Tradition, do you suppose?
