I remember one comment he made and it related to a Lawyers convention in which he pointed out the Attorney's had invited the then head of the Black Panthers Movement and who preached nothing but hate for the US. When he was done spilling his hate at the convention the Attorney's stood and gave him a standing ovation. He used this as an example of cowardness. When does coward behavior stop and care of the country begin? Is it being a coward to stand by and watch a number of Cities being taken over by thugs? Is it being a coward to stand by and listen to people shouting to rip down USA history, whether buildings or statutes? You can add the rest examples of being a coward. Who do you hold responsible for letting any of this happen? It is being a coward by omission rather than commission. When is it time to not reward bad behavior and to ensure consequences for those who allow anarchy to be part of the fiber of the US?
Frankly, I could furnish, with links quotes from folks you consider great or wonderful, or I believe you do, saying very very unpatriotic things. But two things would happen....I get deleted and banned, and you type in fake news, env though I could supply video and the actual quotes.

Anecdotal talk has no weight at all with me, although I would guess you are fairy accurate although out of context.
