In reply to the discussion: Laura Loomer calls for genocide of Latino population. [View all]Ilikepurple
(260 posts)33. What responses were you thinking? Complacency? Hatred? Increasing acceptance of genocidal speech?
If you think everyone should just shrug off calls for murder by alligator of an entire population from someone who has the presidents ear, joking or not, Im guessing youre not part of that population. If youre trying to say something else here, you could be more transparent about it. I get it they calculate, we weaker minded are susceptible to being provoke as our emotions often get the better of us?
