Mills: Even the people themselves who were perpetrating that violence, did they think that was wise? Was that a wise reasoned action?
Souljah: Yeah, it was wise. I mean, if black people kill black people every day, why not have a week and kill white people?… White people, this government and that mayor were well aware of the fact that black people were dying every day in Los Angeles under gang violence.

Do you think that somebody thinks that white people are better, are above and beyond dying, when they would kill their own kind?

The true Islam has shown me that a blanket indictment of all white people is as wrong as when whites make blanket indictments against blacks.
