    The Red Scare refers to the fear of communism in the USA during the 1920s. It was rumored that there were over 150,000 anarchists or communists in the USA in 1920 alone.

    Many Americans were scared of the communists more so because they had overthrown the Royal family in Russia in 1917 and murdered them the following year. At the turn of century, in 1901, an anarchist had shot dead the American president, McKinley, dead.

    But as one US journalist so aptly put it, the whole lot (of so called anarchists) were about as dangerous as a flea on an elephant.
