1. This Is High-Test Barnyard Product, Sir

It is on the order of holding some old 'covenant' in the deed of a house agreeing it is not to be sold to any Negro remains enforceable. This judge needs to put down the julep, walk out of the magnolia patch, and accept that the lost cause is not only lost, but foul.
