Inspired by a reddit thread. The KKK put a bounty of 25000 dollars on Eleanor Roosevelts head, because of her anti-lynching campaign. What if someone had taken up the offer and succesfully killed her? At the time she was no longer first lady, but she was a UN representative and from what I gather, a pretty popular public figure.
Would it lead to harsher government crackdowns of the KKK?
