So your grandpapy hung out with the Klan

HE didn't say that...he didn't imply that.
You'd have to have an I.Q of 75 to get that from his story.

Probably the only white guy in the south who's alive that's had the Klan burn a cross in their yard. Lot of people don't know that the Klan used to police their own also.

You could interpret this statement in one of two ways:
1) The Klan policed their own members
2) The Klan policed and expected other white people to behave a certain way

It doesn’t take an IQ of 75 to see how some people may interpret the above statement to mean that his Grandpa was in the Klan. No it doesn’t definitively state that he was a member, but it is a vague remark that needs further explanation.
