What does Charlottsville have to do with religious freedom?
To answer the OP, it just means that racism is alive and well. I think there will always be racist people in the world, but perhaps better education, discussion, and awareness will help. Simply calling someone a racist and checking out will make it worse I think.
Because it's the whole back drop of "religious freedom" that was the impetus that fueled this. That includes racism.
Religious objections to culture, color, thought, sect, abortion, politics, gender, discrimination, ........... are not included in religious freedom. Much as many would like them to be.
You're welcome to your religion, enjoy it all you want. But your do not have the right to impose it on others. Your religious freedom stops where my noise starts. End of story.
Being told you're delusional does not necessarily mean you're mental.
