I just wonder what he's remorseful about exactly, because I don't think he gets what's really bad about the urge itself. And no, we don't all have these urges. I've never had the urge to go kill a random anyone, black or white or other. The few murderous fantasies I've had have been specific to certain individuals I despise, and it wasn't so strong as to want to act upon them.Then you're obviously just not following the story, but still choosing to comment on it. Watch his GMA interview. He states why it was wrong EXPLICITLY. Whether or not you choose to take his word for it, I suppose is up to you. But there's no real reason to believe he's lying.
If he would've said he was looking for an Irishman or a Turkish man, would the outrage be the same? For some reason I doubt it. Neeson also said he asked what height, age, weight etc. the man was, so it wasn't solely about race.
If we can't even talk openly about racist/prejudice thoughts, there's no point in ever expecting any kind of progress in race relations. People who love to be professionally offended make these conversations even harder to have than they already are.
Also, there are plenty of people of color speaking up in defense of Neeson, yet sheltered white PC leftists want to crucify the guy, mostly because they want to virtue signal and show everyone how outraged they are.
If you're frightened of dying, and you're holding on, you'll see devils tearing your life away. But if you've made your peace, then the devils are really angels, freeing you from the Earth.
