Citizen's United II - the other foot

[kandrathe]

But we are not talking about someone seeking understanding. We are talking about Jack "Southern Avenger" Hunter. That's a pretty dark period of history to be invoking. He is not a re-enactor, he is not an antiquarian or a history buff. He is pushing an ideology of racism in the present, not just trying to understand the past, as you keep suggesting. Anyone who accepts that kind of support, has lost mine, and I think, should have lost everyone's.

We can agree on that too. His guilt is evident in his attempts to go back and expunge what he felt were shameful op-eds. I view him much like a college student activist who gets involved in the communist / world socialists -- protests, gets arrested fighting what they see as injustice. It is just that in this case, the world view is southern secession from the union, white dominance and once again flying the confederate flag. Once you espouse that type of viewpoint, it is hard to distance yourself from it without repudiating your former associates severely. I hope he does that.
