Where my parents live (Clover, SC), the town has a Ku Klux Klan chapter. This is how I know this bit of information.
I was driving down mainstreet minding my own business. All of a sudden I see on my right these men dressed in white robes and the white hood things. I about had a dang wreck because it scared the sh*t out of me!! I had something like "you've got to be kidding me!" reaction as well. I was absolutely apalled. Good Lord knows I went directly home and told my parents because that's just creepy to have a KKK chapter in the community. Apparently, the KKK just had a parade in downtown Clover, SC. Some of them had their hoods down. I didn't think they took those off in such a blazing public location. The ironic thing is they had parked all of their vehicles and stuff in the local Southern Baptist church parking lot.

Well, I never said that I was disagreeing with you. But I was just pointing out the fact that "California has a lot of hate groups, therefore the South is not as racist as people think" is faulty logic, given the numbers on the website.
