somebody figure out, i think it was a very political science at ucla, or somebody in a book that he did that for every one person killed by terrorists. emile henry was a really bad guy. he was a terrorist. but 270 were killed by states. it was easy to understand emile henry's hatred. we can think of these people, you could do, dynamite became such an obsession you could do the dynamite pocock literally. you could sing about getting it to the bourgeois. but a lot of that was frivolous, but there was some real hard core attackers or terrorists in that group. but what my friend marty miller at duke once called between the state and tears, they need each other and states need terrace in order to accomplish its horrific crimes against humanity. and that is another of the lessons of the story of emile henry and his brief .1 and a half years on earth. it was fun to follow him around and repeat what i said before. it was bizarre that he would be in a restaurant that he blew up. but the faÇades are still all there. they are still there. when you walk out of the last place when he lived, you know

such districting was a temporary measure to give blacks what ucla law professor daniel lowenstein calls a jump start in po politi. a jump start is one thing, but the guy who comes and charges up your car when the battery is dead, he doesn't stay there trailing behind you, with a cable stuck as you drive down the freeway. he let's it go. it's time to let race-driven districting go the way of those jumper cables. america is better off with increasing the number of black officials who gained office in large part due to the deliberate drawing of majority-minority constituencies, but black politics has come of age and black politicians can protect their turf, fight for their interests, and successfully compete even for the presidency. today, most southern states have higher registration rates than those outside the region and over 900 blacks hold office, public office in mississippi alone. covered and non-covered states in the south are almost indistinguishable by the measure of african-americans elected to state legislatures. massive disenfranchisement is ancient history, as unlikely to ret

in 2001 speech at the ucla berkeley law school, judge sotomayor dismissed the idea that -- quote -- "judges may transcend their personal sympathies and prejudices and aspire to achieve a greater degree of fairness and integrity based on their reason of law." by thaiing 10 -- quote -- "ignoring our differences as women or man of color we do a disservice to the law and society." i'm not sure why judge sotomayor believes the law is different when interpreted by people of different gender but we do a disservice when we don't transcend our personal sympathies and prejudices and base our decisions based upon the facts and the law. judge sonia sotomayor's view is contrary to the words engraved upon the supreme court's entrance which states, "equal justice under law." and the same 2001 speech judge sonia sotomayor made the following astonishing statement: quote personal experiences affect the facts judges choose to see. i simply do not know what the difference will be in my judging but i accept there will be some." when judge sotomayor says "personal responses affect the facts judges choose t
