I honestly think that if it wasn't for Tommy, there would be a lot more NAZI's in the UK. Because people tend to fall in with the NAZI's when they feel like no one else is listening to them, when they have no where else to go. If Tommy didn't fill that gap, NAZI's likely would.

So you don't condemn racism.... I think that is a very toxic character trait. How am I a "white supremacist"?
