Dixie is peculiar considering that the modern Klan is headquartered in Indiana.

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?

You're citing nothing but branch and affiliate groups off of Morris Dees' website of all places (thanks for showing your true colors, BTW)!

Nobody's disputing the existence of state chapters, divisions, and whatever other goofy names they give themselves across the nation, but the location generally recognized by federal monitors to be the group's national headquarters is a compound in Indiana belonging to the National Knights of the KKK. It is thought to be the largest hotbed of their activity and the central base of their leadership operations. Last I checked Indiana was deep in the heart of yankeeland. 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?
