That's why I think it's about time that stuff sunsetted. I think it was necessary. The conditions for blacks were simply too horrible a wrong to not do something about if we could. I think, given the country's history, this was a special case. Even knowing how it turned out, how things have gotten all out of proportion, it was worth it, IMO. There are some things decent people just can't let stand. Now that the law has done as much as it can, we can shake out the excesses. Things are headed that way, I think.

"If I was convinced to support the effort it would only be with the idea that I was doing something wrong to try to create a great practical good"

If you don't determine wrong by what is "good"...then what on earth are the determinants you use to define what is good?? Is "good" that which is wrong? Is "bad" that which is right?
