No, it would be considered a hate group.
The Ku Klux Klan was the world's first modern-day organized terrorist group. The Ku Klux Klan began in 1865 in Pulaski, Tennessee was and still is classified as a white supremacy group or hate group. The KKK was openly supported and funded by the Democratic party largely due to their defeat in the American Civil War. Research the history of the KKK and you will find the KKK committed more bombings and had more deaths resulting from these bombings than any other terrorist group in history. The KKK was a serious threat and did major damage with untold brutality against Blacks, Jews and Catholics.
No, your not a terrorist if your a member of the KKK. A terrorist is when a person who use or threatened use of force or violence by a person or an organized group against people or property with the intention of intimidating or coercing societies or governments.
yes :D
Because the KKK does not kill people. Individual Klansmen have done so and have been convicted of murder, but they acted alone, in violation of klan rules and ideology. To suggest the Klan be categorized a terrorist group because of that, would mean that every group which has members who murdered someone, would also be labeled as such. The Lions Club, the Elks, the Kiwanis, the Boy Scouts, the NAACP, the American Auto Club, your local church, the U.S. Congress,. Every group would have to be labeled a terrorist group.
By 1870 the clan was everywhere in the South as a terrorist organization serving the Democratic Party. The Klan murdered and whipped Republican politicians, burned black schools and churches, and attacked party gatherings.
