I am a 57 yr old white male

44. This 47 year old white male agrees completely

"All people are inherently equal in rights and dignity" should be the at the core of any government and system of justice, and that only works if the people themselves hold it true. Even the best of the republicans only wants to see equality as something that they choose to grant, or that is bestowed upon people out of goodness - which is a pile of self-serving crap.

People of all kinds, regardless of language or color or whatever else, are mostly good and honest, mostly hard-working and generous, most everybody everywhere has a life that centers around cherished family and friends, and most people get out of life less than they deserve. We all share the same biology and we all think with the same basic human mind.
