aren't the facts clear? Lott's political and legislative actions have indubitably show that Lott is indeed against integration therefore equality. This is hands down no-brainer. I am just finding out more and more about the matters at hand with Lott ( I am out of the political loop in Redlands, CA) but as stated and quoted throughout the thread, his intentions and plans (via actions) are blatant.
It's interesting to see those GCers who are struggling to support/justify the man... you really never know who you are dealing with
I might add that with the repeated quote of a statement made by Lott and/or Thurman I have been terribly offended, actually, alot of it is painful (quote about niggers). The man is utilizing his political position to further his motives, destroying what sacrifice brilliant men of our past have made ie his disgrace and extreme disrespect to the honor and work of Rev Martin Luther King Jr.
I don't know, this thread is pretty depressing...I see so much support of this man, and I think he is the devil (no pun intended). This is not my most intellectual post (as it should be with my passion for civil rights law) but when you look at the support here of Lott, along with the reasons why the civil rights act was passed (interstate commerce) by congress and held it's constitutionality through many Supreme Court attacks, you can really see how fickle the image of equality and justice truly are.
