"Still no apology Stu?"

Ah, I missed your post Ake, for which I apologise.


"I think organisations like KKK should be banned, but if they are considered legal in the US they must be allowed to demonstrate peacefully, if they were attacked with stones and bottles and responded to that attack both sides are to blame. What President Donal John said was legally correct"

However, I don't apologise for my post at all, because of this sort of statement, which is mealy-mouthed and evasive. The ongoing defence by some people of the Pussy-Grabber-in-Chief in this matter means approval of his lack of condemnation is implied, as is support for nasty alt-reich posho Farage and the aims of this group of people.

Trump doesn't condemn the nazi's, KKK etc because they're his constituency and he needs their votes. It's reprehensible anyone would support this sort of thing. All he had to do was say it was wrong but he hasn't and that's that.

Trump (parroted by his admirers) makes a false and insidious equivocation between the Nazis and the people protesting their presence; this is a crass and deeply ignorant over-simplification and a lie. Charlotteville was chosen for a reason. The Nazis killed a person over the weekend.

We know what Nazis and the KKK are, we know what they want and we know that their pasts are drenched in the blood of innocents. Failure to condemn is failure to remember and failure to respect the memory of those who suffered at their vile hands.
