Nazism & the KKK
In my experience, and I am from the southern US and have met several of these people, they are for the most part uneducated, poor, and extremely devoid of any social etiquette. I think of these people (neo-nazis and KKK members) the way I think of feral cats. When a mother cat is pregnant and diseappears into the woods to have her babies.....and doesn't return for several weeks and bring her kittens home to meet her human owners....well, they are angry, scared, and fanatical little kittens. You can't come near them.......they reach an age where, no matter what kind of care and affection you try to give them....they will always have that wild, angry side. They will try to scratch you and bite you because they are scared and untrusting. I think of nazis and kkk members this way, not to give them an excuse, but to call them out for what they are: Angry, Isolated, Barbarians who were never taught how to function successfully in society.
