“RATs should be ashamed of their racist past.”
As a conservative I am PROUD of my ancestors, some good, some BAD.
I respect (did I spell that word correctly Rev. Charlatan?) the good ones and have learned from the BAD ones NOT to be like them, My Great (I don’t know how many ‘Greats” are involved) grandfather was a Democrat. NO ONE should be like him.
His name was Jefferson Davis...funny my grandfather, a judge for 37 years here in Montana, had the KKK burn a cross in his yard one Sunday evening (a black man was on trial for raping and murdering a white woman — he asked for a bench trial knowing that my GF was an honest man).
The man was found to be innocent and some months later one of those A-holes int the white party hats at the cross burning was arrested, tried and found guilty of the rape/murder.
My GF sentenced him to death by hanging in the public square.
One of my GF’s started the KKK, one of my GF’s stood up to them.
We all can learn to be better.
Fascinating anestors!
