I would think it would be superstitious people who think they are "eliminating" evil who might kill black cats - not the devils-witches-black magic groups, who revere black cats, no?
I had a black cat that I found in a cemetery, naturally, I named him Spook. I kept him in on Halloween because I worried someone might try to run him down or something stupid like that. I think black animals in general get a bad rap.
