This southern white man reflects the thoughts of too many. We must make guys like him irrelevant.

After watching this documentary, it is clear that too many older white men in southern states still promote this evil nonsense, as did this southern white man. I want your sober thoughts on this. Please listen to the entire video with my commentary.

common to hear these attitudes. When people say the South is still fighting the Civil War it is true. Not as outspoken as during the 60's but there none the less.

The young man gives me hope that it is not generational. Hope not but white supremacism seems pretty common in these states even today.

No one likes to be called a racist but if you look like a duck, swim like a duck, and quack like a duck, then you probably are a duck.

in the south. It is not unusual to hear the N word in Ohio
on an almost daily basis. These idiots fly the rebel flag on their pickups.

How many derogatory expletives are there? I fear Our language is unable to meet the challenge of having enough words to express the disgust I have for deranged ninnies like this "pillar" of small town "olde" south.

This is as insulting as it is ignorant and arrogant. This man's life was in no way impacted by the civil war. He's just aggrieved that he still can't own other human beings and subjugate them to inhumane and barbaric treatment. He further justifies this ungodly treatment by saying it was settled law. Wiser heads eventually prevailed, but we still needed Loving v. Virginia.

This disgruntled old twat should be forced to live in a 1960s ghetto (Harlem, Watts, Crenshaw . . . ), then tell us how underprivileged and oppressed he is. These people NEVER look at their own behavior, NEVER examine how they conducted themselves led to their current situation (It's always someone else ruining their trajectory.), NEVER acknowledge that merely by being caucasian are their lives already greased by the camouflage of their skin.

Racism is a cancer upon this nation and until we eradicate it and the stupidity which breathes the oxygen into its life, we will always have tedious dullards like this man.
