Description

"Chicago – “this, the United States, is a country of laws as well as men and of it’s men are equal before and subordinate to that law. “ shout James Crow and all his July Fourth glory.
Talk about civil rights for the black man and he declares none are needed, and if past, will not be obeyed.
If that were so, why not vote cloture? Why filibuster? Why not passed Kennedy civil rights bill and see if it can be disregarded with impunity? Why not?
Moreover, the opponents of justice for the Blackman pretend that poverty rates are so sacred that they must not be ordered and the same breath with human rights. The right to refuse the black citizens service in public places of accommodation is called a property right.
It is not difficult to recall that the British owned property Dash T Dash and 1773 Dash and they had a press of laws regarding thereto and The Americans had so much fun destroying that property with all it’s rights in the historic occasion is Hadley remembered as the “Boston Tea Party.”
At Ole Miss, and one short lesson with soldiers and the bayonets, President Kennedy thought the Mississippi crackers and the south and general more than the universities of the country I talked them and 100 years.
The law cannot make one love the dark cytisine. Just laws can make all good citizens obey and put the bad ones in jail.
Give us a civil rights law with it’s educated forces and the ballot by which we can reward and punish the leopard will change his spots or we will change the leopard."
