  2. Bayesian Bouffant, FCD says:

    The St. Paul group’s spokesman, Rashad Turner, declined an interview request but sent a text quoting Martin Luther King Jr. saying that “the Negro’s great stumbling block to freedom…is the white moderate who is more devoted to order than justice…who constantly says, ‘I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I can’t agree with your methods of direct action.’ ”

    “Methods of direct action.” Right. Because interrupting a race is equivalent to marching to a voter registration station. Fool.
