Excuse my language but; Fuck McCarthy and his tactics.

No shit. But that doesn’t justify McCarthy’s Commie witch hunts.

The pursuit of communist spies should have been left to normal channels which in fact were still maintained during the McCarthy show trials which did indeed split the country. As far as being a normal citizen communist or sympathizer, there was not law against that even during the time of the trials.
