He is very good at completely misunderstanding something that was said and
then running with that error for years. IE some time ago during a
conversation as to why our borders need to be strengthened I was making the
non-bigoted point that Mexicans and other Hispanics aren't the only brown
people we need to worry about that the other brown peoples (Islamic
terrorists) can sneak through our porous border too. Because I inferred
that people reading the comment would understand who the other brown people
were I didn't bother to explain precisely that those other brown people
were Islamic terrorists because the conversation had started out by talking
about terrorists getting in to the US. He misunderstands clear English and
runs with his error making himself more the fool.
