Quote of the Day

In his book, "Days of Grace", Arthur Ashe writes concerning the brutality of the Los Angeles riots:

"I felt sick. That's not us, I thought. That's just not us. It was as if spirits from another planet had come to earth and invaded black bodies. We were once a people of dignity and morality; we wanted the world to be fair to us, and we tried, on the whole, to be fair to the world. Now I was looking at the new order which is based squarely on revenge, not justice, with morality discarded. Instead of settling on what is right, or just, or moral, the idea is to get even."

I may not agree with Arthur Ash on everything he writes in this quote (we were once a people of dignity and morality); however, I do agree with what he says about how blacks want revenge. This is going to happen more-and-more as time goes on. Blacks do not want equality; they want revenge for something that is irrelevant to your everyday person. These were not "spirits from another planet", as Ash writes; they are ever-intensifying, always-present spirits that are surfacing more-and-more among blacks. Again, it is only going to get more intense as their agenda "snowballs".
