I just turned to NYTimes.com and read this: “The family of George J. Stinney Jr., who was put to death at 14 for the murder of two white girls, is seeking exoneration in South Carolina, a state where racial matters still simmer.”
Where exactly is a place with a lot of races living closely together and “racial matters” don’t still simmer? The only places where racial matters don’t simmer are in homogeneous societies like Japan and Oregon.
* Was there such an uproar when we held the Olympics in the totalitarian state of China? How is Russia any worse than China? Russia, it seems to me, has much more freedom.
