“Subhuman Mongrel” Ctd




Nugent apologizes – although it took some prodding for him to do so directly to the president. Then this:


Nugent said he apologizes “for using the streetfighter terminology of ‘subhuman mongrel’ instead of just using more understandable language, such as ‘violator of his oath to the Constitution’.”


That is not “streetfighter terminology”. It’s the rhetoric of white supremacists. And it was extremely understandable language – directed straight at racist bigots. My full take here.
