If Oswald had shot JFK in a liberal community such as Greenwich Village, would James McAuley be writing about its collective guilt?

Since when is Dallas a “City of Hate”?

Since the day of the assassination when reporters noted that Dallas was a center of conservatism, i. e. "hate." In early 1964, Warren Leslie's book Dallas, Public and Private: Aspects of an American City (New York: Grossman, 1964) was probably the first to focus on that subject, and the current bestseller Dallas 1963 (New York: Twelve, 1963) by Bill Minutaglio and Steven L. Davis--which I am currently reading--is the latest.

The JFK Assassination was one of the biggest propaganda victories for Liberalism ever. And yes I mean every word of that. The sickos had there story from the moment that JFK died, and they sought to kill Conservatism right then and there,and they darn will succeeded until Reagan. Liberalism truly is a disgusting disease.

Those “men of Dallas” — men like my grandfather, oil men and corporate executives, self-made but self-segregated in a white-collar enclave in a decidedly blue-collar state — often loathed the federal government at least as much as, if not more than, they did the Soviet Union or Communist China.

If men like the writer describes had been responsible for killing president Kennedy, then the he might have a point. But the men he describes in his anti-white-people, anti-capitalist screed did NOT kill Kennedy. A degenerate, loser, communist killed president Kennedy, and the city of Dallas has NOTHING to be ashamed of - ESPECIALLY now, 50 years after the fact.

This stupid, spoiled brat "scholar" should crawl back under his leftist, socialist rock and STFU. He should honestly ask himself what chance his sorry a$$ would have had at going to Harvard if his family didn't have the wealth generated by his oil-man-grandfather?

What's the matter Mr. McAuley, are you afraid to face your own resemblance to the REAL assassin?
