Is Harassment of Public Figures Acceptable: Your Sincere Opinion

[Neo-Scholastic]

You know damned well where those Southern conservative Democrats went, and it happened quite a while ago.

Yes, I do. There were exactly three of them. WIKI

"Some southern Democrats became Republicans at the national level, while remaining with their old party in state and local politics throughout the 1970s and 1980s. Of the known Dixiecrats, only three switched parties becoming Republicans: Strom Thurmond, Jesse Helms and Mills E. Godwin, Jr."

And it was Senator Byrd, the former Klansman, who remained in the Democratic party and continued to be praised throughout his career. WIKI again That is NOT ancient history. That is where today's Democratic party puts its allegiance.

Also from the first Wiki page...

"The passage of the Civil Rights Act of 1964 was a significant event in converting the Deep South to the Republican Party; in that year most Senatorial Republicans supported the Act (most of the opposition came from Southern Democrats), but the Republican Party nominated for the Presidency Arizona Senator Barry Goldwater, who had opposed it."

VIDEO of the HISTORY of the DEMOCRATIC PARTY

But, but, but...what about David Duke? Well, just scroll down through the list of Democrat politicians who were Klansman and you will find his entry"

"David Duke, a politician who ran in both Democrat and Republican presidential primaries, was openly involved in the leadership of the Ku Klux Klan.[29] He was founder and Grand Wizard of the Knights of the Ku Klux Klan in the mid-1970s; he re-titled his position as "National Director" and said that the KKK needed to "get out of the cow pasture and into hotel meeting rooms". He left the organization in 1980. He ran for president in the 1988 Democratic presidential primaries. In 1989 Duke switched political parties from Democrat to Republican.[30] In 1989, he became a member of the Louisiana State Legislature from the 81st district, and was Republican Party chairman for St. Tammany Parish.[31]"

Seems more like an opportunist than representative of either party and yet Democrats keep bringing him up as recently a 2016. They own him just as much as the GOP - which is in both cases is not very much.

The history is clear. Democrats were the party of racism and the notion that all the Democrats became Republican is simply false.

Also, was D'Sousa wrong? Yes or No.
