"The idea of environmental justice is perfectly sound," Almasi said. "You don't want to have a terrible, smoke-belching, cancer-causing factory in a minority neighborhood because they simply don't have the power to fight it."

It does make you think. I love the assumption that not having the factory there is what the people wanted. It would be interesting to know what percentage of people within a five mile radius knew about the factory, and how many of them disagreed with Mr. Almasi. Those are not statistics we'll see anytime soon though.
