For my part, I thoroughly clarified and quantified my remarks on the thread that prompted this exercise in self-righteousness. I have never called pan a racist solely because of his opinion on illegal imigration. I have stated several times that it is the accumulation of observations made over the course of time that made me think that he has reactionary tendencies when it comes to issues of race that could easily be interpreted as racist - and have been.
Of course, it's much easier to douse the fires of one's self-immolation if you just pretend that they are being vicitimized for having a particular viewpoint on one particular political issue.
Maybe if I use this technique:
IT IS THE EMOTIONAL CONTENT - THE ANGER AND OUTRAGE - THAT PAN EXHIBITS CONCERNING CERTAIN SUBJECTS (THAT, COINCIDENTALLY OR NOT, HAPPEN TO INVOLVE NON-WHITE RACES AND CULTURES AND THE PRESERVATION OF UNDEFINED 'AMERICAN PRIDE' ISSUES) THAT I HAVE OBSERVED MULTIPLE TIMES THAT PROMPTED ME TO SAY WHAT I DID.
And I have yet to be inspired to think otherwise.
Thanks.
