    What you mentioned is exactly why i didn’t like him. But i also don’t support the death penalty, and i firmly believe in due process. He got the death penalty without a fair trial. For me it’s as simple as that. And that’s not how democracy works in my book.

    He was a conservative right wing political activist, but some people are comparing him to Mussolini even. Like WTF! And just because he didn’t believe in empathy doesn’t mean i shouldn’t either.

    Fo i think the world is better without certain people? Sure! Do i think assasinating them is the way to go? No.

    And yeah, i’m a gay man. I’m well aware of his views about that. I choose to be civilized though.

      Yup and I agree with you 100%. There is how I feel about it but I also think about it in terms of his beliefs. They are not mine but its kinda funny because normally one might bring up judging someone by their own standards to be nicer than ones own beliefs might make it out for the person but for him that is certainly not the case.
