The KKK was designed to be a terrorist organization.

I'm not saying that the KKK is not a terrorist organization. I'm just saying that they are not legally classified as one, because of the first amendment. The courts consider it unconstitutional to label any domestic organization as a 'terrorist organization', in the legal sense.
Could you elaborate on this part?

I don’t doubt this, but a citation would help me see where you’re coming from, in a legal jurisprudence sense.
