I am, somehow, less interested in the weight and convolutions of Einstein's brain than in the near certainty that people of equal talent have lived and died in cotton fields and sweatshops.

I wouldn't say that we've been having a race war, but I don't think the message of that last one is folly.

I liked the contrast with, "Well, we whites aren't the ones in gangs, rioting or looting."

Notice that that one at least didn't have the indecency to claim that "we whites" weren't engaged in mass murder.

Are you engaged in mass murder, Grumbler? :unsure:
To sleep, perchance to dream. But in that sleep of death, what dreams may come?

Nope, and I don't think of myself as "we whites," either.

Women want me. Men want to be with me.

The medievals were only too right in taking nolo episcopari as the best reason a man could give to others for making him a bishop. Give me a king whose chief interest in life is stamps, railways, or race-horses; and who has the power to sack his Vizier (or whatever you care to call him) if he does not like the cut of his trousers.

Government is an abstract noun meaning the art and process of governing and it should be an offence to write it with a capital G or so as to refer to people.

Has he forgotten hat Trump was part of that industry?
