How to ID a KKK redneck

Not all of them are obvious. It can be as hard as a read at a tough poker table. They might be high ranking members of society. They managed to pretty much take over my state back in the 30’s. They can gain traction when there is economic pressure. So even a high ranking politician can be involved along with the folks you might see on the street every day.

The KKK operates as a Christian group. How sick is that? So, a good place to find them is at church. They tend toward a fire and brimstone preacher who might even be Kludd for his chapter. You might scan his congregation for more members. The sermons will probably fit right into their prejudices. If he likes his church, it is likely playing right to his prejudices. He’s probably been a member there for a dozen years or so and hearing the sermons that call to his conceptions of how the world is unfair to him. Leave those wimps that preach turn the other cheek to preach to the losers.

Well, we pretty well IDing that asshole. Want to try for an ID of a militant at the other extreme?

I guess I better leave that job to someone with experience in the area. Some guy who’s minister is a real bigot and where the parishioners cheer when another guest minister make a classless sermon that caters to their prejudices. It’d help if he’d been around those kinds of fellow travelers for a dozen year or so to makes sure it isn’t an accidental happenstance. Know anybody with the qualifications?

ADDENDUM:

We’re still having fun in our forum. This thread is a great one where a bad read left our hero behind on the flop. But, the turn gave him a game and the final runner gave him a double up. At the turn, the worm turned from playing from behind to seeing implied odds success in the offing.
