responding to Farrakhan
Reader comment on item: Farrakhan Demands Reparations from Jews
in response to reader comment: No we need to respond
Submitted by Nora (United States), Jul 15, 2010 at 19:40
Let me clarify something - I said not to respond to Farrakhan; I did not say ignore it and it will go away. I do think we must continue to provide truth against lies, love against hate and indifference. Farrakhan is so lost and poisoned that there is no getting through to him, therefore it would be a waste of time. Respond generally, but not to him specifically. I do not want to give that guy any power. He already has some power by spewing his garbage and triggering reactions. Let's just be on the smart side on how to respond.
