"Just because an small insignificant group of idiots, march down the street is not news, and hardly requires any response by the Bishops except perhaps on a local level."  That 'insignificant group of idiots' is heavily armed. That fact elevates them beyond insignificant in the eyes of law enforcement.  So much so, law enforcement didn't want to step in for fear of 'being out gunned' in Charlotesville.  Non White American citizens have seen Law Enforcement back off with white militias and supremacist groups over and over.

The bishops would do well to admit their own white American upbringing gives them very filtered lenses.  This is why I gave AB Chaput kudos for finally speaking out strongly about racism.  Given his background he knows all about the prevalent white culture and it's effects on minorities.  Perhaps now he will re evaluate his reinforcement of all things right wing.
