Not my problem. If they can't keep it bottled up, let them explode.
I once heard that a conservative is somebody who calls you a nigger to your face while a liberal is one who does it when they think you aren't looking. As if to mean that it's somehow better to have a racist in your face than locked away hiding somewhere.
Anyways, whomever came with it never realized that knowing these guys are out there is irrelevant to the general idea of what we should do once we find they hold power over our government offices etc.
The one who says it behind doors and is too chicken**** to say these things out loud can exist with or without the threat of being caught saying or doing anything too overtly racist. The ones who can't ... well they can go get ****ed. The point has never been to get every racist hiding in every corner of America anyways.

That is a heck of an attitude.
Lucky people that volunteer at food banks do not share it.
Either you ducked the question and/or your attitude is (as my Dad used to say) 'appalling'.
I care enough about my fellow humans to want to help them - even racists - to see the error in their thinking. But I cannot know to help them if they are afraid to admit they have the problem in the first place. This is why freedom of speech is SOOO important (among other reasons).
It's like when I was a crack addict. I was encouraged to come forward with my problem, but to do so could land me in jail. SO how am I supposed to seek help if doing so gets me in more trouble?
So I had to keep my mouth shut and deal with it on my own. I managed to kick the habit...but many do not - because they need help to do so.
And everyone who is screwed up (addicts, racists, bigots, etc.) usually needs help to smarten up. Thus, they must be encouraged to be open and honest about their feelings/problem...not stifled to conform to some PC mentality.
We are done here.
Good day.
