If the left can look past (e.g ignore, downplay, justify) the high body counts of Stalin/Mao/Pol Pot/Saddam/etc, then one white girl dead in Ted’s car is no BFD to them.
I tweeted a slightly different version of the above, inspired from Leftist justifications and defenses I read on Twitter and elsewhere of Ted Kennedy’s actions that [...]
