There was a story about a college professor who invited a white supremacist (the guy who shot up the Jewish Center) to give a lecture to his class. The reasoning behind it was that you can't begin to truly understand the ugliness of that hate without seeing it first hand. Who knows if Duke met with some people who wanted to know the enemy, curious individuals, closet racists. The fact that he said it as if to threaten all politicians is something to be wary of. If he does it we may not like the results much.

Professor Explains Kansas City Shooting Suspect’s Visit To His Classroom

Embree said. “One of the things I’ve found with many of these groups is that if I tell the story myself [the students] don’t believe me, they just think I’m trying to make them look bad.”
