All That Was Old Is New Again 0
A member of the Minneapolis city council has blamed peaceful protesters shot by white supremacists for getting themselves shot. Here’s a bit from a detailed story in the Minneapolis Star-Tribune:
When I was a young ‘un, back in the olden days, the defenders of the segregationist status quo liked to blame “outside agitators” for getting themselves shot and buried in dams.
I’m trying to figure out whether blaming “inside agitators” is a step forward, a step backward, or a just a step sideways.
