This is the biggest issue I'm seeing. Trump has never been one to mince words or hold his tongue against those he lashes out against. The fact that he dragged his feet to condemn them speaks volumes.

I'm not an expert on Lee, but I know he wasn't a friend to black folks.

Clearly you're a better historian than actual historians. You also seem very calm, level headed, and certainly not emotionally unhinged.

They actually debate if the nation can and should overcome their guilt from WW2

None of that will matter because Germany will soon be Europe's first Muslim majority nation operating under full Sharia Law. Because they're so tolerant and all.

If it wasn't such a serious issue it would be comical, especially the part where he says he always waits for the facts before giving a statement.

What about Communists and/or people calling for the eradication of all white people? Just curious.

Dude, you're not answering the question.

Your ability to turn a blind eye to ANTIFA and BLM stoning people and trying to take their vehicles is astonishing.

Dude, you're asking me to answer a question about a stance I haven't taken.

Again I never said being a racist asshole is illegal in and of itself. I think the closest anybody has said to that is Shaft, and he saying it should be, not that it is.

But just because they filled the proper paperwork to be a racist asshole doesn't mean I can't call them out for being racist assholes - nor question those who rationalize their behavior.

Not even Harriet Tubman? Racist.

Turns out the counter-protesters did indeed have a permit to protest, 2 actually.
