Woods [Mel quoted] --
Mel had written:
It is human nature that we never know the limit of a tool until
we exceed that limit. So it is with social tinkering. Both the
government bureaucracies, as enshrined policy, and folks
in the ivory tower, as holy writ of their victory over the low quality
of segregation, have stuck with a form of racial thinking that
is indeed dicriminatiory. But they are often blind to it.
You then asked:
"Was this the basis of Ham's post? Was Ham pointing out
the "social tinkering" from the Ivory Tower in these gov't
legislations? This would be a bold intellectual pursuit that
might be something to bravery pursue. Not race and the violent
conflicts of race on race (undoubtably immoral), but a more
intellectual debatable pursuit of the legislation coming from the
top-down/ivory tower? Is this what was meant?"
The basis of my post was to show that society is being duped into an
ideology of non-discrimination, largely due to Marxist liberal teaching in
universities and government manipulation of the laws to "equalize" the
masses in order to maintain the power of the state. I agree with Mel that a
society that takes individual freedom for granted is like the proverbial
frog placed in a jug of water that is slowly heated to the boiling point.
We don't realize that we're losing our freedom because the process is
gradual over the generations.
Thus, what started as a movement to integrate the races, spread to a Supreme
Court decision to allow unrestricted immigration. This, in turn, led to a
policy of "political correctness" which made public judgments of cultural
and sexual differences immoral. Now we are faced with immigrants (many of
them illegal) who demand the right to subsidized birth-to-death healthcare,
signs and books printed in two languages, Islamic prayer and the teaching of
multicultural equality in schools, single-sex marriage, and a socialist
president who well may have a globalist agenda for America. The
individual's innate capacity to discriminate has been reduced to the lowest
common denominator, and national sovereignty is no longer cherished. As the
pot comes to a boil, those of us who have witnessed this decline suddenly
find that we've lost the values which made this nation unique in the
civilized world. Alas, it may be too late to change our course.

Ham
