-- See 1930s Germany for a historical example. --

Well, sort of. I think it's a sign of insanity to badmouth a group that is generally armed. By the time the Germans got around to demonizing the Jews, the public had been more or less disarmed. Doesn't make the demonization sane, just makes it safer for the bigmouth.

Is this joker a leader in the demonization? I don't think so, other than maybe his intensity and directness. I figure most liberals share his sentiment, but just do a better job of keeping their beliefs under wraps.

What I mean is someone has to break the ice for such demonization to become ‘ok’ and then the drones all chime in. The chorus builds over time and it becomes ‘the will of the people’. Then the violence begins, the fear runs rampant and you have history repeat. And this jackass is not alone in such comments. He just has a platform. Facebook/DU rants are one thing but this is a ‘legit’ (yea I know but he sorta is) guy doing it.
