And look what a great success it was when the drinking age was raised to +infinity in the 1920's (sarcasm)

So why don't we repeat that great experiment and get the number of drunk drivers down to zero?

What has Jesse Jackson done that's worse than what many lynch mobs have done?

And how does he allegedly do that?

Also, what do you expect black people to say? That they deserve to be beaten up and forcibly sodomized and re-enslaved on account of how evil they are?

Jesse Jackson's words harm *FAR* more than any lynch mob. The individual harms are obvious far less but they add up.

Sure, some whites do some bad things to some blacks. Those incidents and the blame are obvious.

The problem is the systemic belief that whites are out to get blacks and that what bad happens to blacks is the fault of whites. That does tremendous harm to the blacks.

How many thousands of people were killed by Jackson's words. Jackson is far from perfect, but this is racism. Plain and simple racism.

I love it when White people tell Black people that one of their own is a worse enemy than torturers, murderers and defenders of slavery.

So probably these quotes http://www.brainyquote.com/quotes/quotes/j/q117365.html of Jesse can alleviate the harmful addups of his other less savory ones
