The KKK justifies and rationalizes their view that the white race is superiour but saying that blacks and other races are of lesser mentality. But there are black doctors, Asian scientists and people of all colors who are of amazing intelligence. So how can intelligence be limited to a race? How can they use this justification? Please do not answer in a derogatory way - thank you.

The KKK believes that blacks, Jews,Asians,etc. are not a intelligent as whites. What I'm saying is then how can Asians be doctors? How do they contiue with this justification?

First of all i would like to point out that I disagree with KKK on all issues.
That being said let me play devil's advocate.

The argument that KKK is making is not that "EVERY black man is stupider then every white man" or that "every black man is stupid". What they are saying is that on AVERAGE blacks are stupider then whites.

Think about it this way: On average Chinese are shorter then whites. However, SOME Chinese are WAY taller then an average white person. For example: Yao Ming[1] is MUCH taller then most whites. However, existence of Yao Ming does not in iteslf, disprove the assertion that Chinese are on average shorter then whites.

Similarly, existence of black doctors and Nobel Prize winners does not in itself disprove the assertion that blacks are on average less smart then whites.

It will take us much more work then this to disprove this damaging stereotype once and for all.

Because the KKK has no merit at all. There beliefs come from hate and ignorance.From along time ago... Yeah everyone who has the potential can be a doctor.. anyone any color.. Just because the KKK said these things .. they don't have any value or merit.NONE not one .. Yeah at one time black kids didn't get the best education due to segregation . But now .. its not like that . But THE KKK is a hate group . I mean a real hate group . If you do your genealogy ,,, There are so many races that are intermarried... just because your white. doesn't mean there isn't a mix someplace. of someplace,, is that bad.... no it makes you who you are. I think that you need to really study the KKK and look at your own ideals ,and question what is right or wrong... If you have children is this the ideology you want them raised with..but really open your mind to things so that you realize that anytime a major hate group says anything .. Look where they are coming from.. I read one time the literature that the KKK sends .. they go and put the literature on your door step in the middle of the night..GOD forbid they show their faces huh ... the intellect level is that of a fifth grader. NO JOKE ... If you read the literature .you cant help but laugh and realize the facts are only half true and misleading ... like the political ads... half truths .. .. you find the truth is not what they represent. The KKK also picked up the studies( beginning study of genetics... that was later picked again by Hitler....... asking this question of your self .. then asking it here is the first step for you to walk into the light of your own intelligence. keep questioning ... it raises your intelligence level

I think it is safe to assume someone in the KKK would only see a white Dr. Clearly, the KKK is misguided and totally wrong in their beliefs. I am quite certain there are people of every race that are extrememly intelligent.

My father in law, who grew up in the back woods south, has made racial comments about a Dr we went to -- when he didn't like what that Dr. said, so I guess if the Dr had been black he would have thought he was just stupid.

I cannot explain the mind and rationale of bigots, I just don't let in concern me since i know they are wrong.

Well good question, not only did they not like people out their race but their main purpose for KKK was to kill all republicans because they did not think they helped anything(I did not know that either)and also they are just ignorant because they can't become doctors because they would have to be helping people of all races so I guess they wont become anything important!!!1

First - You falsely assumed that bigotry has a rational basis and can be defended rationally.

Second - If you are so locked in to your own bias, you can always say they special treatment due to their race and the affirmative action plan that was put into place by bleeding hearts.
It is the reverse race card played by the uneducated, because it is available.

There has to be more than a few loose screws to belong to the KKK.

Because it's the KKK who lack intelligence. Read Freakonomics. It will give you a good idea of how truely simple minded the KKK members are.

Members of the KKK also believe it's OK to bang their sisters. Consider the source and move on with your life.

You are asking irrational people to think rationally. DON'T! You may want to improve the way they think, but that means you have to think like them and you don't. These people have very little left as is and were raised this way. Now if my Jewish banker would just loan me money, so I could get out of the ever growing black community and their bouncing Mexicars! J/K.

It's the racist biggots that are members of the KKK who are inferior as they have small brains so are not able to understand that society needs people of all races.

They've probably got small penis's too.

the kkk is like a religion they have faith in their beliefs and what they have probably believed for their entire life the have been formed like the great canyon slowly steadily almost unbreakable but if people like u and me fight against it every day we can slowly erode their justification of this monstrosities. or we could use US policy makers to be like dynamite and just blast the rock of their reason to smithereens!
