That is not "the issue", that is "an issue". And to bring it up in this context is a red herring. Oh yeah, it technically has to do with the law so blah blah blah.... NO.

Oh, and I actually do think that was kind of fucked up, if the allegiations are true, I don't shrug that off at all; but this matters only for drinking beer or giving him the hand of my daughter in marriage or something, not for talking politics, where, to me, he clearly has "the heart in the right spot".
