Yeah, that Wa-Po op-Ed was bananas.

And our idiot NYC mayor told people to let cops arrest them and sort it out in court. Because that always works out so well for poor people. Gadzooks.

Longform.org posted a link to this piece on Commentary magazine's website:

http://www.commentarymagazine.com/article/the-watts/

It's a 1966 article about the 1965 Watts riots/protests. It's a fascinating, albeit depressing read, because it's been almost 50 years and nothing has changed. But worth the time to read.
