First, my bad...I will accede to your first and only valid point. As you surmised of course, my comments really pertained to the second paragraph.

You are relying on the same literary slight of hand that the author did. Neither I nor POTUS said that there were good racists. What we said was that there were good people who were not racists who were among the protesters. 

Exhibit one: Black Lives Matter protests.  Maybe say only 50% of the marchers in the instances I will cite were involved, but consider the march where people were screaming "What do we want? Dead Cops! When do we want it? Now! Maybe only 20, 30, 40, 50% of the folks in the March were screaming this hateful vitriol. So, do you think it makes the rest of the people in the march "bad" people. For that matter, I doubt that you even think that the ones that were spewing THAT hate were "bad people".  Then there was the "pigs in a blanket. Fry 'em like bacon" march. Really fine people, no?
