Much as I love Buckley, Lomax nails him on federal intervention in civil rights issues.

I feel like William F Buckley went around to colleges and just got schooled by a bunch of black intellectuals during the 60's

[@PrenticeBoy1688]

Nah. WFB was a smart fellow and he always had his reasons for his opinions. Both arguments have their solid points.

[@hanajinks1044]

That's why Feelings don't necessarily aleays ally with Facts.
And stop speaking like that - it makes you sound like an even bigger imbecile than you possibly are.

Schooled by blacks.... that's not a racially biased statement 🤣🤣🤣

[@PrenticeBoy1688]

Is the entire debate available?

THANK YOU

[@warrenpeece1726]

Amazing! When a college allowed free speech!

[@winmine0327]

Completely disagree with the point on civil disobedience. It should be the hope of every protester that they are arrested, and that that arrest is noted by the general population.

Wizmut I think it somewhat depends on the type of disobedience (maybe not?).
but Rosa Parks and the Greensboro counter sit ins- I don't see how you argue against that.
