I'm not going to presume to know what a black man assassinated by white supremacists would think about his people still being murdered and treated as second class citizens for the color of their skin, and resurgence of racism in America just shy of 60 years after his tragic killing. Though I'd have to think he'd be appalled at how controversial it is to call for a swift end to those perpetrating it.
What I do know is Kirk is quoted saying that black people had unsufficent brain power to hold positions of leadership in society and that the civil rights movement was a mistake.
The fact that you think both of these people and their viewpoints deserve equal defense and respect says a lot more about you than it does me.
Yes, that's exactly the point I was making. Bless your heart, my twelve-year-old buddy.
Aww, someone is grumpy that their weak attempt to make me seem like a violent racist backfired
Go back to reddit if you want to get mountains of upvotes for saying Kirk was a champion of the people. We don't do fascism here.
