And alcohol kills those abundant "leetle grey cells" you're so proud of.

Sure , it is a problem in some cases.

But, when racism and excuse become synonymous it is problem as well.

Most real racists are not in a position to help or hurt another race. Unless it is shooting a white cop because he is white or sometimes just shooting white people out of the trunk of a car.

Fascinating.
Context, Mike, context. Why did he say we needed that wall?

I simply look at the people around me who love Trump, I know them, I know how they are.

They will all tell you adamantly, that they are not bigots.

With rare exception, they're full of shit.

We had two who called off of work tonight to attend Trumps Fascistfest in Richmond. One of these idiots I torment all of the time with the metric system. He hates it because..."It's not American!" and he can't figure out how the base ten system works.
