38. "it"

I don't know...
...or care if race has anything to do with it. Iverglas asserted that it does.


I just get the feeling we're talking about two different "it"s here ...

Me, I'm talking about the impulse to enact legislation allowing people to kill other human beings with impunity.

When the people who expect to be doing the shooting expect that the people they'll be shooting are not really quite human beings like they are, well, it's just that much more inviting to make those laws.
