Roadkill happens in the middle of the road
Nothing is more tiresome than the preachy self-righteousness of those "conservative" advocates of "Dr." King's "dream", which is daily becoming a waking nightmare.
"Oh, those nasty white 'racists'! Oh those dasterdly liberal 'racists'! Why must we be made to suffer such deviationism from our true and noble path down the middle of the road!"
Of course these two "extremes" must be handled differently. White "racists" must be shouted down, not allowed to speak, marginalized at all costs. Liberal "racists" must be shown their "racist" attitudes with patient, cold logic, carefully worded so that the middle-of-the-roadsters can never be mistaken for white "racists".
It is a tough, thankless job, but somebody has to do it. Right? Yea, right.
Unfortunately, such unbending devotion to maintaining respectability while tossing a few stones (carefully, so as not to really hurt anyone) at the left is not a benign strategy. It may suceed in keeping the uncertain trumpeters well fed and their books bought if not read, but it has deadly consequences for us all.
While keeping up a level of hissing worthy of a Purim festival at the local synagogue, these MOR's manage to keep white "racists" from being heard. Consider a few positions that might be discussed in a free and civilized debate, but are never allowed a moment's consideration:
No, these heroic "colorblind conservatives" are too high on their hobby horses to be bothered with such questions. They are too busy making the world safe for "democracy" (a purely materialist and scientistic conception) to be bothered with such trivial tasks.
For those that follow these Quixotic champions of the middle-of-the-road, just remember where roadkill happens. Especially with the FEMA trucks coming to a neighborhood near you - soon.

The views of those who might truly desire a "multi-cultural" (whatever that means) and racially mixed society, but believe that it cannot work, and are realistic about it, just as one might realize that a middle class income doesn't allow for a home on the Riviera, or provide chances to rub shoulders with the Pope or woo "supermodels".
The view that such an experiment as permanent and irreversible as race-mixing our whole society should not be taken without a guaranteed outcome that we know will be desirable. Given the abject failure of every type of program of this type of much lesser consequence, this seems sound enough.
Regardless of whether the great browning is good or bad, why should whites accept the openly malicious spirit behind it? Shouldn't we deal with that before going any further?
Shouldn't supposedly Christian leaders be able to make clear the individualistic and materialistic assumptions behind all these agendas, regardless of the "bad press" they might receive?
Shouldn't anyone who proposes that we limit immigration to "Christians" regardless of race be required to provide a practical blueprint of just how that is to be achieved?
