Jesse Helms the Isolationist and Racist former Senator of North Carolina has died, he was 86. I am about as sad about this as I was when Strom Thurmond died, and that is not that much.
Not that I am happy to see him die, but he was a miserable man who should of never been an elected official. He was a Racist, Bigot, Homophobe who played on peoples fear to win elections.
Why we would celebrate this man in any way is beyond me. I'm not saying slam him in the media the day or days after he dies, But don't play him on TV like he was this great man that helped people. He was a divisive, hateful figure that was a Senator. That would be my eulogy for him.
