What is not characteristic of the ku klux klan?

Gangs and thug life have largely become connected to the African American and hispanic communities because of the last few decades of gang activity coincidentally enough since legalized racial discrimination gradually came to an end throughout the 1970s; this, despite over a century of the KKK (Ku Klux Klan) running rampant in the U.S., terrorizing, destroying, and murdering without rule or consequences. The KKK was not created out of poverty and survival in a lower-class area as with African American and hispanic gangs, but rather pure racism. These gangs are white-only hate groups put together after whites had lost the 5 year long American Civil War that ended slavery. The goal of KKK was to restore slavery and white supremacy. If it wasn't KKK gangs wreaking havoc, it was random white mobs raising hell, ambushing blacks, and murdering them .
