...of a people repressed by society and their government since slavery,without pause to much but their ownership up until King and others began their push for recognition and full rights of citizenship, and with real scars and bloodshed at the hands of the federal government.

Nothing like Kirk's privileged victim-mentality, anti-American movement based on projection, misogyny, bigotry, racism, antipathy, avarice, and hatred.
