Look, for every "Ghandi" type example you give, I could give you 100s where the
little guy gets squashed. There is no "real power", just power.

I will not relent on this. Explain exactly what skin color has to do with the
point of your little assertion. Isn't your real beef with the rich? Aren't
you in essence merely inciting class warfare? It's such a tired liberal

deny that members of all other races are doing quite well in this country and
that millions of whites are not is quite simply race baiting and you should
retract.
