Byrd renounced the klan and when he served he voted to reauthorize the voting rights act, supported legislation for Hate Crimes Prevention.

David Duke still supports the klan and it's viewpoint.

If you can't see the difference is in the reformation and not just their party affiliation, then there's no hope for you

Why would someone ever be in the Klan?

There is no room for nuance on this moronic board, but I applaud your effort.

Klan from Byrd's generation don't renounce shite. He did what he had to do to keep his seat.

Once a racist piece of shite, always a racist piece of shite.

When are the ANTIFA Brownshirts going to demand his statue be removed from the WVa statehouse?

I saw a clip of Byrd in an interview saying some pretty racist shite.

In 2001.

I guess he reformed his violence towards blacks, but maybe not so much his thoughts.
