Mandela's death shows Republican hypocrisy on violence [View all]
The second most common slam of Mandela by right wingers after being a communist is that the ANC committed acts of violence.
Aren't these the same people that support military as a FIRST resort, the death penalty for as many crimes and people as possible, and even the legal use of deadly force when you feel frightened by a black person?
I think we already saw their hypocrisy on stand your ground with the case of that black woman who fired a warning shot and got 20 years in Florida around the same time George Zimmerman got off, but this is further confirmation that they only like violence by and for the benefit of THEM.
It could also be that at heart they are profound cowards, just like Mitt Romney who was brave when it came to beating up a single gay kid when he was backed up by a whole gang, but was too chickenshit to fight in Vietnam.
They are a lynch mob that hates the idea of their victims being able to fight back, and runs screaming to their mama when they do.
