Would to tell that to the Jewish-American community about Hitler? Or the Russian immigrant community about Stalin? Or the Chinese-American community about Mao Tse Dong? Or the Vietnamese-American community about Ho Chi Minh?

As a person thats in laws come from Cuba. I find this so beyond words right now.

I am sure some of you will be all great another one leaves. Please ignore that pettiness right now and focus on them offering Che quotes on their phones.

Its such a disgrace

The only pettiness and disgrace is held by you for believing any crap that supports your point of view.

Apple boycotts Beck - True
Apple promotes Che - False

LOL. I'm sure that anyone fighting for anything believes that their fight is for the "good".......it just depends on which side of the fence you live. Personally, I don't support physical fighting at all. I would support a more Ghandi approach.

The difference is that the USA maintains normal relations with these countries while maintaining a totally ridiculous vendetta - mainly at the instigation of the Cuban exile community - against Cuba and a Cuban people who, mostly, were no even born at the time of Castro's revolution.

Shouldn't that be "like Che used to be".

The man has been dead for years. Communism doesn't work as even the most diehard commie countries have recognized. The only reason it persists in Cuba is because of the US blockade.

No, but any qualified psychologist would have something to say about condoning murdering innocent people over ideological differences.
