...municipal ordinance requesting that vicious dogs be muzzled and controlled?" Genet thought a better description was "mad dogs, who for the past 150 years have done the same thing, with even greater brutality, to the blacks." Improving on even this literary eloquence, Southern found the "dog-cop image quite apt, but in my view there is also a salient strain of swine in the character of those who drove the young people out of Lincoln Park.

If a war does not involve some high and all-encompassing ideal such as freedom, democracy, a war to end war, Americans are reluctant to go into it . . .
