        The phrase "Oliver North thinks" is all you need to see to know what is coming next in the sentence will be some absurd fascistic nonsense parading towards the full stop the full dress uniform of stupidity and ignorance, poorly mimicking heroism as the band plays on out of tune.

        Conservatives’ biggest fear is that one day they will be treated as badly as they treated Black Americans.

        It is too bad Confederate leaders were not prosecuted for treason and thrown under the jail.

        It shows you can pin a chest full of medals on any asshole and there's a large portion of people who need nothing else to gain their respect, as if there was no ideological difference at all between George Marshall and Douglas MacArthur.

        Clearly he hasn’t a clue what life was like for Black people under Jim Crow. Or what life is like for people of color today. Oliver North should be ashamed of his comments. I pray for his soul and his heart, that they be healed and he use his name and his position to harm no one.
