I could see when Falwell died. He was also a huge a$shole about plenty of things, but I could at least see the redemptive value that what he was saying had to some people, but those people were ultra-conservative Christians. While I still think he was as vile and as un-Christian as a loudmouth, public Christian could possibly be, I could at least figure out why some people bought into his $hit.
This guy, on the other hand, had nothing to offer outside of being a hateful a$shole for being a hateful a$shole's sake. It should be literally impossible for anyone with even the slightest connection to reality to be able to defend him.

You ever spend much time in the south? Not Atlanta, not Charlotte. I mean mid size cities and smaller towns.
It is different. That is how guys like Helms, Strom Thurmond and Robert Byrd got elected.
Byrd was head of his Ku Klux Klan office. His title was The Exalted Cyclops. No sh1t.
It is a different world.
