Well, that lawyer is a right winger too. All of them aren't completely oblivious. You have to stop completely stereotyping people.
On the other hand, here is another post from that thread that is kind of remarkable in its obliviousness:
NBC NEWS: KANSAS CITY SHOOTER IS FORMER DEMOCRAT GUBERNATORIAL CANDIDATE, KLANSMAN.
Okay, they pushed the Democrat part down a ways in the story.Can you imagine the glee at the SPLC, though? They’ll fundraise off this for a decade.

But if you actually read the article, it says this:
He even unsuccessfully ran in the Democratic primary for North Carolina governor in 1984 and as a Republican for a state Senate seat in 1987, the SPLC said.
According to The Associated Press, Miller was the subject of a nationwide manhunt in 1987 for violating the terms of his bond while appealing a North Carolina conviction for operating a paramilitary camp.
The search ended after federal agents found Miller and three other men in an Ozark mobile home, which was filled with hand grenades, automatic weapons and thousands of rounds of ammunition.
In other words, this guy was a completely stereotypical uneducated gun nut Southern racist who didn't even have the brains the change his political party affiliation to Republican when many of his fellow racist Democrats did in the 70s, but finally did change it--but all the guy who made this post could see was, "He was a Democrat." And to pretend that the Southern Poverty Law Center will be "gleeful" that 3 people were killed and others injured by this lowlife maniac.
And it wasn't only him. Later in the thread, we find this:
Kansas KKK Leader Behind Jewish Center Killings Claimed Israel Trying To Buy Election For “Neo-Con Republican Establishment”…

He also ran for office as a Democrat several times. .....
Sounds like a typical SI liberal.

What assholes those guys are. Actually, this guy sounds a lot like some of the nut jobs who post on the RW threads. Even LB has kicked some of them off of his thread for being too insane.
I won't pollute this thread with any more nonsense like this. But Koan, you have to stop stereotyping. Being an asshole or being right wing doesn't necessarily mean being stupid about all things. |
