    The guy that believed that gay people should be stoned to death. That the civil rights movement was “a huge mistake”. The guy who advocated men should physically attack transgender people and that all women should submit to their husbands… the guy who believed Americans should be able to whip immigrants? This guy is a piece of work from the stone age that has infected millions of people with his bullshit. He lived by the stupid and died by the stupid. Probably a false flag operation. I wonder what if any thoughts went through his mind in those 30 seconds.
