Quote:The problem is that the highest levels of black leadership in America (and I mean leaders of blacks, not black leaders) have on countless occasions condoned (or at least excused) rioting as a legitimate form of protest. You have a situation where at times people feel on a national level that they don't get justice because of their skin color, and this is how they respond.
**cough** gross generalization **cough**
WTF. What exactly IS a leader of blacks, if I may ask? Choose your words more carefully, friend; you are generalizing across a diverse community. Perhaps I ought to do the same. Given the faulty induction of your example, one could just as easily say that the highest levels of 'white' leadership in America condone cross-burnings and segregation.
But whate'er I be,
Nor I, nor any man that is,
With nothing shall be pleased till he be eased
With being nothing.
