Yes it's thue. But it's not a contradiction, to be right and to be sick.. The right things (relative or not) can be shown also by an insane person..
Well, I guess he was right. If you have the beliefs and morals of a racist and white Christian supremist.
Tough guys target difficult targets. Of course, you have to respect a person that actually does and doesn't "talk" (i.e. the 100 or so terrorist arrests in the USA in the last 10 years that no seems to question based upon "intelligence").
I never try to compare having Racist beliefs with intelligence. I have known a great many racists and fanatics that were brilliant. Heck, look at those that led Germany until the end of WWII. Hitler and his group may have been as crazy as $3 bills, but nobody really questions his intelliegence. Hatred knows no boundries. You can be a multi-billionare, or living in a gutter. You may be a PHD in phyicis, or an inbred moron with the IQ the same as your shoe size. Idiocy can infect them all equally. And hey, I have no issue with somebody that thinks that their "race is under seige". Feel free to marry a spouse of your own race, go to a religious organization of your own race, eat at food places of your own race, or anything else. The minute you attack anybody else because they are not of your race, no matter where it is, you will hopefully find me with a gun ready to blow you away to protect the rights of others.
has nothing to do with intellect (i.e. SAT or IQ scores). "Intelligence" has to do with Patriot Act surveillance of so-called "terrorists".
