No, he impressed me (from the writing) as a lame insecure little lackey.

Obviously you've never heard of the Aryan Nations, or the numerous other
neo-Nazo groups springing up in all parts of the country.  Do you know one
way that modern American neo-Nazis work on increasing their membership?
They "preach" to disowned farmers that the "rich Jews who run the banks"
are the ones who are taking their farms away!  Pretty slick, huh?  No
threat, you say.  Hmm, is it only a threat, sir, once they've already made
inroads into taking over?  I'd rather have a little more foresight (and
hindsight, learning some lessons from history) than you, my friend.

OK, I will.  I think it's worth it to show such people for what they are.
Apparently you don't.  Apparently because you either don't care, don't
notice a longterm threat from such people, or feel you have nothing to lose
so as not to worry about Jews and homosexuals and anyone else who doesn't
go along.  I suppose you never heard of Pastor Niemoller.

As opposed to those who agree with you, who are of course enlightened,
wise thinkers.  In *your* flaming belligerent eyes...  Good day, sir.
