How Is The Ku Klux Klan A Bettering Society

The Ku Klux Klan, which was established in the early 1900s, was a hate group that targeted all people who were not white or Christian. The KKK saw these people as “aliens” and sought to get rid of them. The Ku Klux Klan believed they were doing something noble and that their actions were bettering the society of that time. Although the KKK saw themselves as a group of people who were bettering society, their actions showed they were not a group with positive intentions but instead intended to reject, obstruct, intimidate, discriminate against, and in many cases, actually destroy anyone different from themselves. Many indications may show that this is true, a few being that there was a group organized to oppose it because it was unlawful and

Mob rule has supplanted action by legally constituted law enforcement agencies, the police, sheriffs, and the courts. In some cities and counties, this has been made possible through the cooperation with the Klan of some law enforcement officers who have disregarded their solemn oaths to the State of Texas and remembered only their obligation to the “Imperial Wizard” at Atlanta and his “Invisible Empire.” This proves the point that the Ku Klux Klan was not a good organization as they envisioned themselves because it goes into a discussion of their actions.
