That's a lot of words to swim through and try to figure out what you're saying. Are you railing against desegregation? What is you beef? Be clear.
Aren't you allegedly a lawyer? You'd think reading comprehension would be one of the things that would be considered a common necessity for lawyers. I've seen too many contracts for you to claim that paragraph was too difficult for you to grasp.
I attended law school and earned a juris doctorate, but I haven't practiced law in many years. Thus, I haven't been a "lawyer" for many years, although I have engaged in legal research and writing for others during my retirement. My hubby and I own income-producing property, including a successful business, all of which is none of your concern. Because we live in a nation of laws, not of men, all citizens should know and understand the laws that govern our individual and collective conduct.
And, of course, words matter and ought to be understood and mean something. I wonder if the word "ambiguity" means anything to you? It doesn't escape anyone's attention that you omitted both Georgeob1's words and the entire context in which they were offered. Please provide what you omitted and then provide us with your "comprehension" of Georgeob1's message. What is his beef? Be clear.

I am saying what many of us have already said: Donald Trump is a racist and a bigot, among other horrible things (e.g., misogynist), and you're okay with that. Why would you be okay with that when history has taught us about the evil that flows from such ugliness?
Your saying something doesn't make it true. You probably once said that Hillary would be the next President and look how that turned out. You are wrong on too many things to try playing some morality cop.
All the evidence that Donald Trump has provided the court of public opinion throughout his entire life proves that Donald Trump is both a racist/bigot (among other horrible things) and an exploiter of other people's racism/bigotry. It isn't just me that knows that to be true, but the entire world has reached that same verdict. The same as we know the KKK is a racist organization, we know that Donald Trump is a racist human being.
I am not "playing morality cop". People are free to be bigots and a racists so long as they obey the laws and/or refrain from using the power of our government to impose their bigoted and racist ideals on everyone else in society. The honor of "playing morality cop" goes to others, particularly those who purport to rely on their personal religious beliefs to justify using the power of the state as a means to deprive others of basic human freedom and dignity.
I never said Hillary would be our next President. As a candidate, she might have been our next president the same as Donald might have been our next president because they were the only major party candidates who rose to the top to become their party candidates for president. My record on the subject here and elsewhere discloses that I firmly believed (and still believe) both Hillary Clinton and Donald Trump were (and still are) equally unfit to be president.
The primary voters didn't want Hillary Clinton in 2008. If they didn't want her then, why would the DNC think the voters would want her in 2016? The DNC was wrong in its calculation, but you have no basis for placing that error in judgment on my shoulders.

I am aware of man's inhumanity to man. The reason so much attention is given to the Holocaust is due to the vast similarities between Hitler's rise to power and Trump's rise to power and his clear use of Hitler's playbook. That is something you have yet to acknowledge.

I didn't watch the youtube video. If you believe the video has relevance to the conversation, you should provide that information and explain why watching the video is worthy of my time.
