I defy you to show us where you did. Just more made up nonsense to try to get you off the hook for what you know is a blatant falsehood. Until you can prove that the statement you claim constitutes "bigotry" was even made, none of the rest of this is worth considering. Come on...you can shut me up right now by linking to that EXACT quote. If you're telling the truth, it would be very easy to do. We all know you'd love to do that, so if you fail again, that pretty much tells the story.

Despite your (again) false claim, you haven't been attacked for "hating bigotry". It's simply been pointed out that the quote that you base your claim of "bigotry" on was never uttered by the person in question, but was invented by you. If there's any "denial" here, that's where it is. And what's really sad is that everyone, even your more ardent admirers (and you), knows that you made that quote up.
