His approach worked, and he was given a classification that ensured he would not be drafted.[13]

He's never put down for his racial comments and actions though.
Malcolm X was villified for his racist statements back in the day, by both blacks and whites. He didn't get a free pass. However, once he journeyed to Mecca and worshiped with Muslims from all backgrounds, black, white, Arab, etc, he softened his views and said that he couldn't make blanket statements about whites anymore.

You said something nasty and it bit you in the ass. Suck it up and be a man. By the way, not every member of a minority is straight! Remember that! Can you imagine what it is like to have racial and sexual bigotry used against you? People like this should shut their mouths and try to become long forgotten.

I hate people who use any kind of card to leverage a situation in which they were wrong. Those who have truly been discriminated against are discredited before the evidence is presented due to dumbasses like this guy.
Preach on!
