I wish I could have given Rachel some tips to counter Pat
I think his vitrol even startled Rachel but his bullshit rant could have been taken apart.
She could have brought up "legacy" and "privilege" enrollments at schools which far outnumber AA selections all over the country.

She could have mentioned that white men did not "build this" nation on their own...I guess slaves don't count and the work and toil of women hardley ever gets a mention.

And white men were not the only people killed in the Revolution...not even the first. And as far as the Civil War goes whose fault is it that stupid white men allowed themselves to fight a war for the wealthy land and slave owners over a war largely over slavery.

And never mind that this country was founded on deiism, occupation, and genocide.

Pat is over the edge on this. Shows the real fear, no doubt, that a shrinking majority of privilege feels when the oppressed may outnumber them soon.

Anyway, Pat was about as vitrol as I have ever heard hem execpt when he used to be on the raido with Braden...ranting his anti-Semite script then.
