Latham Roof has been hired as an Anti-Racist director at the Canadian government, and he's got Canadian heritage. I don't know what that means, but he's no better than the Ku Klux Klan or Aryan Nations or some other racist bunch of idiots.

00:00:00.000 Canadian heritage. So they've hired an anti-racism director.
00:00:04.000 Okay, fine. This fellow's name is Latham Roof. But this is what this guy, this is a quote from
00:00:09.680 him. This is from Twitter a little while back. And this is his own words. And this is a guy they've
00:00:14.520 hired as an anti-racism director. And here's his words, those Jews, he's talking about Jews. And
00:00:21.080 he says, they're white supremacists, loudmouth bags of human feces. When Palestine is liberated
00:00:26.020 and Jews have to leave, they'll return to being low voiced bitches of their Christian 1.00
00:00:30.560 secular white supremacist masters. Not misquoting. In fact, I want to read that a second time.
00:00:37.920 Those Jewish white supremacists, loudmouth bags of human feces, when Palestine is liberated
00:00:42.380 and Jews have to leave, he said, they will return to being low voiced bitches of their Christian 1.00
00:00:47.940 secular white supremacist masters. This man has been hired as an anti-racism director
00:00:54.900 with Canadian heritage. This hate filled piece of crap is actually going to tell us how we're
00:01:02.340 supposed to behave. He's getting probably six figures from the government and your tax dollars
00:01:08.080 to teach us, apparently, how to go on rampages like that. How on earth, when somebody is hired,
00:01:16.560 I mean, that's the first thing we do in every modern place is you Google a person, you look
00:01:19.460 this up. And there is this tweet from this lunatic, this hateful racist man. And he gets
00:01:26.300 put into a position as an anti-racist director. This is our government at work, guys. This is our
00:01:32.720 government at work. This is how we're going to reduce hate. Are they going to hire somebody from
00:01:37.660 the Ku Klux Klan next and stick them in there? Because he's so familiar with racism, perhaps maybe
00:01:42.720 that's what their logic is. You get some intolerant bigot piece of crap. And if we put them in there,
00:01:47.840 they might figure out because they know personally how it works. So we'll put a Klan member in there 1.00
00:01:52.220 or Aryan Nations or some other nutball. This guy's no better. Those words like holy crap.
00:01:58.620 Yeah, there's your dollars at work.
