Exactly. Despite the fact that they felt they were practicing "God's will," deep down inside they know their beliefs are an abomination.
If they were truly proud of their racism, they wouldn't hide behind the masks, they'd show their faces.

On good authority the KKK are still around, but they are not chasing after their former ideas anymore. Now the are out to fight injustice of any kind to the American nation. As for the mask wearing, if you terrorized someone and was caught, you would spend a very long time in jail. The last one caught was 60 years old and he got a 60 year sentence. Do you thing he will ever come out on parole? They all seem to males anyway, something the ladies can do without!

Yes, anonymity but also to frighten the black population of the south. The former slaves were often very superstitious. The KKK wanted to look like spirits. In any case, they are all spirits now.

They're probably mostly policemen, politicians, judges, big buisnessmen, the usual suspects.
