        Children cannot choose who their parents are or how they are brought up. Once adults, they can (and should) examine the dogmas they were raised on, and decide for themselves if these represent who THEY really are. It takes strength to recognize wrong raising & move away from it.

        Robert Byrd was a beloved Demonicrat Klansman, adored by the Clintons. The KKK is a Demokrat thing.

        This narrative is so tiring. Every single current KKK member is far right. Stop trying to excuse it away because it was started by Democrats 100 years ago.

        Byrd is dead. He was a KKK member early on, but denounced it later in life. Do some research.

        Its funny the Left wants to memory hole Kavanaugh for a lieregarding some fiction 36 yrs ago. But the Left praises Clinton even though his idol he worshiped 50 yrs ago was a segregationist. Who knew 14 yrs could make such a difference.

        Can members of the KKK, GOP and NRA qualify for a discount to encourage reading on this topic?
