To own a slave is to be a slave
Racial, religious and ethnic supremacists
are always blind to their own faults
. . . liberalism results in rescuing strangers who may one day rise up
and kill you. It keeps you consistent with your abstract moral precepts
but lowers your chances of survival by orders of magnitude . . .
in memory of an honest man
G. Patrick Flanagan
1944-2019
There are opportunists in this world who make us act against our own
consciences, immoral people who know that most of us are basically
moral, so they play upon our compassion and get us to act contrary to
our own best interests.
These are people who urge us to remember our own better natures, yet
have no better natures of their own, only a feverish desire within
themselves to steal what others own and laugh in the faces of their
victims who eventually realize what their misplaced trust has wrought.
