Indeed, watching that speech again, his words seem more prescient than ever. Contrast how a patient, persistent, and overwhelmingly peaceful Black Lives Matter movement successfully passed scores of police oversight bills around the nation -- while a violent spasm of insurgents at the Capitol brought nothing but chaos, destruction, and an indelible shame to themselves and those who supported their heinous acts.
And yet, while the actions of these domestic terrorists (let's call them what they are) cannot be defended, and derive from an elaborate framework of conspiracy and lies, I'm reminded of what Dr. King said immediately after:
"But at the same time, it is as necessary for me to be as vigorous in condemning the conditions which cause persons to feel that they must engage in riotous activities as it is for me to condemn riots. I think America must see that riots do not develop out of thin air. Certain conditions continue to exist in our society which must be condemned as vigorously as we condemn riots.

I suppose the company is going eliminate Affirmative Action and start discriminating in FAVOR or white males now?

If they all sit on the same assembly line doing more or less the same thing that would probably be valid. However, I seriously doubt that that's the case.
Recall that Obama and Dame Clinton lied for weeks and weeks about the planned Benghazi terrorist attack on 9-11-2012.
They claimed that it was a protest about a youtube video that just got out of hand and Hitlery Rotten Clinton even jailed the filmmaker and YouRube.com banned his movie about Mohammed.
Hillary knew on DAY 1 that it was a terrorist attack and shared that in an email to Chelsea who does not even have a security clearance.
