The LA race riots and Clintons going on about "super-predators" would like a word with you about racism going away in the 90's

Didn’t say that it wasn’t there. Just that it got a lot worse after 9/11 and the following years.

9/11 was a pretext for doing what they wanted to do anyway. Kind of like how the Olympics in LA was the pretext they needed to militarize the police there.

Finding a pretext isn't hard, but sometimes events outside of your control just kinda hand one to you.

I've heard that the high tide was end of WW II. Sloping exponentially downwards, with the occasional oil boom or bust.
