“Long years of white liberal arguments that blacks have been – and still are – invariably innocent of accusations, because of the contemporary suffering and the suffering of their ancestors, has now convinced an articulate percentage of the black community that blacks should not be arrested or punished – no matter what they do [Otto Scott’s Compass, September 1, 1998, Vol. 9, Issue 97, p.3].

[Pres.] Johnson ... [n]ever seem[ed] to realize that [‘a wave of black riots, racial denunciations, and violence’] in response to enlarged opportunities [after the civil rights legislation of the 60s] are not signs of progress, but the response of a violent minority to perceived weakness [Otto Scott’s Compass, December 1, 1998, Vol. 9, Issue 100, p.3].”
