Re: police murders of PoC, the Klan and similar groups have members within many police departments.. [View all]

Just look at the South through the Jim Crow and Civil Rights eras. And the South is far from alone in that regard. The Klan and other white supremacist groups have substantial overlap with the "Patriot" and Sovereign Citizens movements, along with the hard-line anti-immigrant and anti-Muslim crowd within the Republican Party (see: Trump's base and Tea Party assholes). And all of these have more overlap with police and law enforcement around the country than many (white) people would be willing to admit.

I am pretty fucking confident that some of these groups are operating just behind the public face of many police and sheriff's departments around the country...
