I have spent time, and will soon spend more time, in places where speaking your mind would get you shot or your throat slit.

You and me both, my friend. It is not a pleasant experience, when what you say can get you killed or thrown in jail. The truth is often feared by many, however, no one has authority over the truth.

I quite agree, the man can be an absolute idiot at times, he seems to have a tendency at times to seek attention by making his points in an inflammatory manner.

It is a shame that, often times, people who have valid points choose to "cloud" their statements with a whole bunch of garbage that ultimately kills their message.

.... Emile Vidrine..... now that is one scummy little Jew-baiting crossburner...

The problem with a guy like this, from the limited linked posts I have seen, is that he does not use ethnic slurs. Maybe he does use them, but I haven't seen one yet. Often times, posters like this are quite eloquent and rational, however, their true nature is a lot worse. They are hate-filled. They don't expose themselves as much as another person who would write the slurs, but are often worse.

As a poster on the GPM thread said, "Anything can be rationalized". The racists/white supremists often use this premise, in defence of their words.
