It's the way "conservatives" are defending him that's the main reason why this is so fucked up. You're right, you're innocent before proven guilty but look how the right is defending him...
Which I can only extrapolate that this sort of fucked up behavior is "okay" in these deep southern states.
The way people like PB, Methais, Wrathbringer, and tgo defend the indefensible; I can tell they are unsuccessful losers who cling to their race and the position it affords them in society as the only redeemable value they possess. I'm almost certain when they walk by a dark negro sporting a $25,000 watch with a lithe fair-haired white woman their blood boils with volcanic rage and they quickly whip out their phones to lament the decay of the West and the terrible victimization of the white man on a 30 year old text based game's forums. #SoSad
