The KKK was actually formed for the purpose of protecting women's rights iirc. There were black members in some area's and they lynched Caucasians occasionally.

edit: Still terrorism and what they did was despicable, just saying that it wasn't their original purpose.

I am no source whinger, but that claim it too fascinating to let pass. I have never heard such a thing before.

Please tell us more, with, sorry to ask, sources.

I can say with a good deal of certainty there is nothing true about your statement regarding the KKK.

I think he might be referring to the WKKK (http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Women_of_the_Ku_Klux_Klan) but its still a far fetched leap to claim that the KKK was founded for the sole purpose of protecting women's rights. That most certainly is not true.
