Anyway, my dear Welsh/Turkish Louis, my point merely is, I can't with a straight face or clear conscience tell any black person, after all that's happened in this country in the last century or two, "Hey, trust the system! America's a fair country!" That's ridiculously presumptious. But I guess if you're on the right side of certain racial/religious/class/political divides, America *is* a totally fair country.

Ahhhhh I see where 'tis you be coming from! I don't disagree with that at all, and I certainly don't disagree that the "system" is corruptible.
It was just that your former phrasing struck me as mildly conspiratorial. My bad.
