---Yeah, I didn't mean to minimize the real crud that still goes on. There are things that happened in my life that make me furious. Things involving the police or "people of a higher class" than me. But they only happened a few times. I know from the black guys I've worked with that they suffered this on a regular basis.If I'm mad for having my rights violated every once in a while. I can't imagine what it takes to contain and maintain when it's daily or monthly or whatever.
