I'm still working on my...

...Rand Paul-1964 Civil Rights Act posting. In the meantime, I think it's appropriate to mention the death of David Ginsburg:

[He] led the presidential commission on race relations whose report, in 1968, warned that the United States was “moving toward two societies — one black, one white, separate and unequal.”

I'd like to ask Rand Paul, is that what you would really want, two societies, separate and unequal? Wouldn't it be better to bend your libertarian principles just a little in the hope of correcting a profound injustice and creating a better America? In the final analysis, isn't that preferable?
