Hate will eat you alive from the inside out. What will you do when there are no more people to demonize? Hate is like a Cancer~ You will die a very lonely, old and isolated man. Wayne~

It’s better to live in Love & Light than Hate.
Hate will eat you alive from the inside out.
What will you do when there are no more people to demonize?
Hate is like a Cancer~ You will die a very lonely, old and isolated man.

It has been debunked here time and again. Perhaps you are confused because hate seems so much more prevalent on the right at this time. Frankly "the world"isn't likely to care about Duke's letter any more than you or Duke care about SPLC's letter. Wayne why do you repeat the ridiculous claim that SPLC ignores hate groups on the left?

Frankly “the world”isn’t likely to care about Duke’s letter any more than you or Duke care about SPLC’s letter.

This is a letter from a group more or less known as the Southern Poverty Law Center, a mainly Left-oriented group, and their "Hatewatch" blog which is meant to "keep an eye on the Radical Right." Why not just keep an eye on extremism in general? Duke comes out with a letter addressed to the "world" and the SPLC pretending as if they are the world comes out with a letter to David Duke.. ha!

Easily one of the best Hatewatch posts I've read in a VERY long time. (I would only recommend you clean up a couple missing conjunctions and it would be bookmark-worthy.) I can't wait to read the comments from Davey's lapdogs... Ryan,

Edwards, I think, had been convicted of various forms of corruption but eventually beat Duke anyway. The bumper stickers that election year proclaimed, "Vote for the crook. It's important!"

Bright Fri, 09 Dec 2011 02:30:33 +0000 http://www.splcenter.org/blog/?p=8293#comment-356063 This Duke fellow is getting a little long in tooth now. I cannot imagine how at least a tiny part of his brain could fail to appreciate that his sole accomplishment in life will have been to bring misery to the world, while championing a lost and worthless cause. I guess my hope is that he's at least smart enough to feel a sense of embitterment. This Duke fellow is getting a little long in tooth now.
