The KKK was originally founded as a replacement to any law agencies after the civil war ended by Nathan Bedford Forrest around 1866.

The North had removed much of the Law and Order within the South and left the reconstruction of the South (for a period anyway) in the hands of the south.

The KKK had questionable roots, at best, but did represent some law and order. Blacks were even marginally allowed to join. It quickly, however, digressed into a terrible hate group. It hated virtually anything and everything that was not whatever they were.

Questionable roots at best in an era of no law. The current KKK has no useful value whatsoever.
