text: Yes I actually posted that post the civil war they were northern war profiteers. 
  
  I also posted the words of the man that started the movement and the fact that carpetbaggers were there was the last sentence of a whole paragraph of him describing how they were chasing/scaring blacks out of the state.
  
  P.S. I did the work for Foster. I posted the refuting links, the fact that you completely don't read them and listen to the people that founded the orgs that you are attempting to qualify just shows that you are not interested in an actual debate and more interested in just spread your talking point.
  
  Here since you won't read what I posted earlier..."They burned blacks’ houses down and drove black farmers off their land and they extended their hostilities to southern whites who opposed them and the so-called ‘carpetbaggers’, white infiltrators from the North. "
  
  My question is why are you vehemently attempting to defend the KKK?
