 From Intellectual Takeout:

We see this anger daily among those who wish to command our lives.

They see how these notions, when put into action, damage our schools, threaten free speech, increase crime and violence in our cities, and deliberately aim at creating groupings based on skin pigmentation, promoting division rather than unity.
