What have they said about our millions? Eighteen white men assisting in the crime of genocide. What do they say about our murdered innocents? How many black dead make one missing white? Mathematicians, please answer me. Is it infinity...

Among the fruits of this year's campus disorders is a harvest of state laws that student activists might well ponder this summer. Reflecting majority disapproval across the country, the laws will make campus protest far riskier next fall. Some disruptive tactics, in fact, are now legally denned as felonies, with penalties of up to five and even ten years in prison...

...basic pain sensations in these two groups. Whatever differences there are apparently exist entirely in the emotional reactions. These also vary with cultural attitudes. The stoicism of the American Indian and the Chinese is proverbial, although ethnic variations in sensitivity have not been proved. Descendants of "old American" families make a greater effort to suppress their reactions to pain than other cultural groups, such as Italians, among whom an outcry is socially acceptable. For yet others, the "wailing wall" psychology provides a rationale: the vocal protest is supposed to ease the pain. Many a man will groan aloud to alleviate...
