Not that I know or Anyone has know but maybe they tried to insist to kill them.

Yes....
If there are, they should leave.
Rosa Parks is well known for her work with the civil rights movement. Rosa stated that she never encountered the Klu Klux Klan but knew that they were active in her community.
"Fall of a Nation" was released in 1916, the follup to the Ku Klux Klan inspired movie "Birth of a Nation".
Yes, the Ku Klux Klan had a presence in Vermont during the 1920s, although it was not as strong as in some other states. The Klan sought to expand its influence in the region, attracting members through rallies and promoting nativist and anti-Catholic sentiments. The organization was involved in various activities, but by the late 1920s, its influence in Vermont began to wane, similar to trends observed in other parts of the country.
People who join Klu Klux Klan basically hate Jews, Catholics, organized laborers, African Americas, Asians, Indians and basically anyone else who is different from them. It started in 1865, after Civil War. Ever since President Obama has been elected president there has been a rise of membership in K.K.K. It's sad, but true.
There is an unsubstantiated report of at least one very light-complected Black member of the KKK in the 1920s because of its strong support for National Prohibition. If this actually occurred, he may have "passed " for white with the Klan being unaware of the fact.
Much of the Klan's early activities were basically mischief and consisted of the Klan riding around during the night on their horses. One of the things that the Klan loved to do was put on a white mask, which looked ghoulish with only the two holes for eyes and the hole for a mouth, and ride up to a house where a black family lived and demand water. When the Klan member got the water he actually poured it into a hidden canteen. After drinking several buckets of water, he would exclaim he hadn't drunk anything since he died on the battlefield. Then he would ride away while the black family was thinking the Klan member was a ghost! While these things were harmless, the Klan was responsible for many more dangerous things, such as mobbing, hangings, and shootings. As the years went by, the Klan was getting weaker and weaker because the Blacks were getting stronger and stronger. Also the police forces got better around the mid 1940's. Many tried to bring the KKK back to full strength, but they failed. The Ku Klux Klan thought maybe they needed a new leader, but after a new leader and his death in 1949 the Klan got even smaller and was never as strong as they were in their first few years. Now there are still Klan members, but very few of them are still active because the kinds of violence they participated in before the 1940's would be severely punished today.
The Ku Klux Klan had two major goals during the peak of their power: 1) the political defeat of the Republican Party; 2) the maintenance of absolute white supremacy in the South.
The KKK began about the time of the civil war. Though not as popular as now.
The FBI had several paid informants which were key in bringing up federal charges against klansmen for violating civil rights of individuals which were murdered. However they were not brought up on murder or conspiracy to commit murder charges.
