A manhattan lawyer who describes himself as "america`s leading expert on the militia movement" writes that he hugged his three-year-old kid the night of the oklahoma city bombing. he told junior that it happened "because they hated too much" for now, let`s accept the premise that one hundred sixty-eight humans died in oklahoma city because people "hated too much" now answer these questions if you would be so kind: did a federal sniper shoot vicki weaver in the face because he hated too much? did our government conduct the tuskegee with syphilis on black soldiers because it hated too much?
Writing Kids Night
I have just been to a city in the west, a city full of poets, a city they have made safe for poets. the whole city is so lovely that you do not have to write it up to make it poetry; it is ready-made for you. but, i don't know - the poetry written in that city might not seem like poetry if read outside of the city. it would be like the jokes made when you were drunk; you have to get drunk again to appreciate them.

The weird thing was that i went to trump rallies thinking i was going to run into militant, right wing, racist people and mostly i didn't. that should have been a clue to me. the people i talked to were not, on the surface level, crazy. they were quite nice, quite normal, employed, and actually were wealthier than the press at that time would have led us to believe. at that time, the narrative was that these were all working poor but these were not working poor. that should've been a clue to me that this was a little bigger than i thought.
Running Crazy Nice
We've always had the blame-america crowd. we've always had the hate-america crowd. but we've now had at least two generations of education where this has been indoctrinated into the young skulls full of mush of young people. they've heard how horrible america was back in the days of slavery. they've heard how horrible america treated women. they've heard how horrible every minority group was treated. they've heard how mean-spirited the founders were. they've heard all kinds of literal lies.
Lying Hate Mean
White people scare the crap out of me. i have never been attacked by a black person, never been evicted by a black person, never had my security deposit ripped off by a black landlord, never had a black landlord, never been pulled over by a black cop, never been sold a lemon by a black car salesman, never seen a black car salesman, never had a black person deny me a bank loan, never had a black person bury my movie, and i've never heard a black person say, 'we're going to eliminate ten thousand jobs here - have a nice day!'
Movie Jobs Nice
I've spent most of my life living in cities where people are obsessed with looking down on people from everywhere else. you get so used to doing it that you start to believe it's simply what everyone does. it makes for an atmosphere of unwelcome that penetrates much of our modern life. it's a shame really because a couple days in oklahoma will open your eyes to how much better it would be if the rest of the country was filled with a few more people from oklahoma.

If i had the opportunity to speak to a young immigrant girl that just arrived to the u.s. the advice i would have for her would be: ask, speak, search; because there are opportunities out there. and, know that you aren't the only immigrant or the last to come to this country. many that have come before you have succeeded. it is possible.

Food can be utilized for economic reasons, like the grain embargo of carter 40 years ago. you have a political decision, you are going to move the flow of food in a part of the world and not another part of the world. and certainly now, with the way the country is polarized and all that, you wouldn't want to have a french menu, with a french thing - you'd be crucified! or anything like that. you have to be a real american and apple pie and this and that.

He[napoleon] had destroyed only one thing: the jacobin revolution, the dream of equality, liberty and fraternity, and of the people rising in its majesty to shake off oppression. it was a more powerful myth than his, for after his fall it was this, and not his memory, which inspired the revolutions of the nineteenth century, even in his own country.
