Would you say the same of a person espousing hardcore racist beliefs?
Darrell Davis, a hero of mine never let people treat him poorly. He just befriended people instead of for what’s right.
He was no man’s doormat.
Freedom loving people have often become the doormat.
Let my ask you something. How would you actually treat a murderer? Why don't you shoot the next person that seems sympathetic to socialism and see how you feel about that. To me your post calls for violence and reeks of demagoguery. I didn't see much difference between what you said and what you are accusing them of.
There is a great tension.
Hold the line & wait till you see the whites of their eyes
