Kank: I grew up in southern New Jersey (that's why I'm interested in this game) and I never heard any stories about the KKK operating anywhere in New Jersey. The mob was the main thing in Jersey even long after the 20's. I just talked to my dad who is now 90 years old (born in '22) and he said he never heard anything about the KKK in Jersey. Granted, there were a lot of racial bigots even when I was growing up but nothing organized as far as we know.
JudasIscariot: It could be something to do with historical liberties taken by the devs and my woefully incomplete knowledge concerning the Prohibition. I do recall that it wasn't nationwide at first until Jan. 17, 1920. The only reason I mentioned the KKK at all was due to this propaganda poster: http://upload.wikimedia.org/wikipedia/commons/4/47/Defender18thkkk.jpg.
