We celebrate violence every Fourth of July and Thanksgiving. We are violent people, most of whom are the products of alcoholic Europeans from half a continent that had known nothing but violence for centuries and our history books do not disagree. End of story.

Is the concept of whiteness a centuries upon centuries old belief system with ties to a divine encounter? That is the difference. Reverence for the representative of their deity vs reverence for what?-- skin color I'm guessing. That probably won't make sense if you don't believe in a higher power which these men clearly do.

Yes, yes it is Brad, but it's not about one's willingness to kill it's about whether or not you're willing to die.
