Agitators sent to the South

His Klan, as Bowers wrote in one of his internal memoranda, was "a nocturnal organization that works best at night. We must remember that the Communists who are directing the agitators want us to engage in pitched battles in the streets so they can declare martial law."

In an Imperial Executive Order issued at a Klan meeting June 7, 1964, and recorded by the FBI, Bowers wrote:

"This summer, within a very few days, the enemy will launch his final push for victory here in Mississippi. This offensive will consist of two basic salients....
One. Massive street demonstrations by blacks designed to provoke white militants into counterdemonstrations and open, pitched street battles to provide an excuse for:
Two. A decree from communist authorities in charge of the national government declaring martial law
When the first waves of blacks hit our streets this summer, we must avoid open daylight conflict with them we must counterattack the individual leaders at night."
Weaving religion into the mix, he further declared "As Christians we are disposed to kindness, generosity, affection, and humility in our dealings with others. As militants we are disposed to use physical force against our enemies. How can we reconcile these two apparently contradictory philosophies? The answer of course, is to purge malice, bitterness, and vengeance from our hearts."
 
I pulled this from the internet. These writings are with flaw as this portrays a message from a ''liberal yankee'' point of view. You will notice that the are no interviews from anyone that was a resident of these areas that the events took place. The media simply would not write any article with a Mississippian in mind. The fact that the Klan was at least doing something about the invasion of northern liberals into their homeland, was no different than that of Union soldiers' war crimes 100 years prior. These agitators that were sent there did indeed stir up the emotions and started violence by inciting and provoking violence by instilling the ''seed'' of liberal communism ways of relutionary thinking. They knew if they went there, there would be violence but they went anyway....with that thought who were the real terrorists? The defenders or the aggressors? That would be like a southerner taking their views to NYC or Boston and claiming southern views and ways of life, all in all it would not fly, but the history books write what they wanted to fuel their liberal agenda.
 
If the Klan could of held back the communist liberal agenda, we would be in a better, safer, more moral Christian society today......
