I kinda figured. But if you really did support fuck Norris we would have had problems. I can separate the man from the art, though. I do like Walker Texas Ranger when the episode isn't bat shit religious. Kinda like after Pat Benatar told me to sit down in front of 20,000 I was thinking, "Hey lady, I pay your salary". But years later I can now still appreciate the music without being fond of the person. Even with Dawkins, I love his work, but no, he is not someone I would want to hang out with. I like Walker for the writers, not Chuck, Chuck was nothing that show tried to portray.
What I love about Bruce is that he had the same attitude about sharing Kung Fu with the world, that I do about sharing due process in America, not that it is perfect. If you have something great, why would you not want to share it? Bruce was treated like a traitor in Asia, certainly not by all, but by many. It is the same fucking attitude I hate about our far right when they scream about not extending due process to non citizens. Holy fuck, if it is good enough for people born here, then it should be good enough the world.
I doubt that either Bruce or Chan if they could run in American politics today would run on the GOP party. But, if fuck Norris were to run the GOP would be the only party he could run on.
