Can’t let facts get in the way of a ghoulish racism fetish.
He’s hurting so maybe eloquence cannot be expected, but come on: “he can spew all the hate and racism he wants but don’t use my dead son’s name” …
I don’t think that message is particularly good.
I think that’s him saying “I understand that I can’t control what he says, because of the freedom of speech, but using my dead son’s name is going too far”
Not “I’m ok with people spewing hate and racism”
Yeah that tracks… as I said maybe in time of crisis and grief eloquence is not something we can expect.
Maybe in this moment your nitpicking isn’t needed either.

I’m not a native speaker. In another post someone explained how to interpret the comment probably. I did not get that from the comment and with half the Americans being right wing nut jobs…
I got a TBI from this take.
Here, try this quote:
To clear the air, my son, Aiden Clark, was not murdered. He was accidentally killed by an immigrant from Haiti. This tragedy has been all over this community, the state and even the nation. But don’t spin this towards hate
