An apology: mea culpa
Several days ago, I posted what I thought was a joke at the expense of women Trump supporters at a recent rally. Bluntly, the OP thoughtlessly mocked their missing teeth. This was wrong. I could waste your time explaining how and why that post was made, but there simply is no excuse or justification for it.

Several DUers rightly criticized what I had said in the OP and, because I respected them, I started to have 2nd and 3rd thoughts about the OP. Sadly, I allowed myself to be distracted from those critics by other posters who saw my mistake as an opportunity to expand the thread with accusations of misogyny, racism and bigotry. If I understand their "reasoning", if I mocked women with missing teeth---which I thoughtlessly did---then, of course, I also was a racist who used the n-word and a bigot. One poster said that I always or frequently picked on women in my posts.
I did not delete the post because, if I understand correctly, that would have erased WHAT I ACTUALLY POSTED and for which I was rightly criticized, but NOT the made-up smears for things I did not---and would never---post. That would paint me as a racist woman-hater, and I just could not bring myself to allow that.
I am certain this will in no way satisfy those who enjoyed my error and sought to magnify it. I hope that others will accept my sincere apology. I hope that maybe those who have put up with me for twenty years will decide to forgive my insensitive---and, as one DUer put it, "crass"---post.

LMAO
He says he was having second thoughts about his initial comment? wasn't he all over the thread doubling and tripling down?

What are the odds he posted something misogynist-racist on DU about Nikki Haley?

Besides being a racist that uses the n-word, a misogyny, and a bigot, Jim is as stupid as it gets. IOW, he belongs on DU with the rest of the freaks.

Did he nickname himself after the philosopher or the Attica Prison-riot, with viral meme of the guy yelling: " Free Atticus! "... mispronouncing the prison's name... ?

It would "paint him as a racist, woman-hater" as opposed to just a woman hater.

I suspect it's a nod to one of the main characters in the novel To Kill a Mockingbird, which to liberals is, all at once, the Bible, Penthouse Forum, the last few minutes of the 1973 version of Walking Tall, a still image of Dr. J's 1983 "Rock the Baby" dunk against the Lakers, and the feeling of fully evacuating one's bowels.
They really like that stupid, overrated book.

That's what I've always assumed. And agreed, the book is way overrated.
