You would be wrong. The 2nd incarnation of the KKK (1916-1940 roughly) was huge and influential. Admittedly there was a strong element of MLM along with the nativist politics but anyway, millions of members at peak.
Later/third KKK 1965 and on was marginal, sure.

The founders gave a lot of leeway to the states when it came to religious restrictions (although Article VI of the Constitution makes it clear they didn't think much of them). Wasn't til 14th amendment that the federal government had full powers to protect individual liberties.

Well, few organisms use fluorine for anything at all so seeing plants put it to use is unusual. In this case they produce fluoroacetic acid, which is quite poisonous, although some local critters that eat the plants have evolved a tolerance.
