Birger I could maybe see fighting the Klan for ideological reasons (they do hate Jews, and probably Russians, along with dozens of other groups), but I can't find anything about the ethnicity or religious status of the Shelton brothers.Well, KKK hated immigrants and he was jewish so maybe there was resentment, especially when fighting alongside with the Shelton brothers.I have been researching Prohibition era crime lately. There are some really fascinating stories, such as this one:Eh, the bootleggers were technically criminals, and didn't want to lose money or customers. I kinda doubt that fighting bigotry had much to do with it.
Two 1920s bootlegger gangs join forces to fight the Ku Klux Klan.

Pretty much this, especially in regards to the head area. Our brains burn tons of calories to keep us going, at least in comparison to the other parts of our bodies.Our body hair is much too fine to keep warm, anyway. Look at the Inuit and other tundra-dwelling people. I have no idea if they have decency laws, but they wear plenty of clothing at all times.It makes a helluva difference in warmer climates, though. At least warm and humid ones. There's an extremely noticeable difference between fuzzy and not fuzzy in Florida, anyway. Similarly, just dropping the head-top hair apparently has a seriously notable effect on personal heating. What I'm saying is that it actually does a pretty good job of trapping heat, even the relatively little bit most of us seem to have. Probably has something to do with the amount of heat we give off in general, though...
