What documentation exists in the public record that demonstrates that Byrd ever left the Klan officially? Isn't it possible that he is still a member? How does one go about leaving a criminal organization "Officially"? Anybody know?

To join the KKK, Byrd sword an oath before God to uphold the KKK Constitution. Among other things that Constitution says that each member swears:

"To maintain forever white supremacy."
"To maintain forever the God-given supremacy of the white race."

And...

Every Klansman has unqualifiedly affirmed that he will "faithfully strive for the eternal maintenance of white supremacy."

In my brief research on this topic, and having viewed various versions of past KKK Constitutions, I see no provision for leaving the Klan once sworn unless expelled. Until Byrd can demonstrate otherwise, he is still a member of the West Virgina KKK and is still under oath of allegiance to the Klan.

...Like that will matter at all to the Rats.

The consitution of the UNited States of America grants freedom of the press to allow Democrats to forget politically damaging facts.
