Sergeant Trapp:
I've got a friend, he keeps up with these groups. He says they're moving away from the old violent racist styles. That's what Duke is peddling now, it's become mainstream.Ron Stallworth:Duke?Sergeant Trapp:David Duke, current Grand Wizard of The Klan, but, he's always in a three piece suit. He's never seen in a hood or a robe in public. And he now goes by National Director. So, he's clearly got his sights on higher office.Ron Stallworth:Politics? How so?Sergeant Trapp:I think it's another way to sell hate. Think about it: Affirmative Action, Immigration, Crime, Tax Reform. He says no one wants to be called a bigot anymore. Because, Archie Bunker made that too un-cool. So, the idea is under all these issues, everyday Americans can accept it, support it, until eventually, one day, you get somebody in the White House that embodies it.Ron Stallworth:Huh, sorry. Come on. America would never elect somebody like David Duke, President of the United States of America.Sergeant Trapp:Coming from a black man, that's pretty naive. Why don't you wake up?
