US equivalent? Is that REALLY how you think things go here?????? I've been a lot of places in this country and to my knowledge I've never SEEN a Klansman. I know they exist and in concentration in some small out-of-the-way places but they are a pitifully small group. It's just that our Leftist media likes to give them BIG coverage when they are out cavorting. They love stirring up any animosity that may exist.

Do all you Scots go about in kilts all day long? Hoot Mon! Gotta love these stereotypes!
