He's trying to close the wound. Or do you think a lower crime rate among black men would widen the gap? That was, after all, his intent. And just because black people aren't enslaved today does not mean that they are not victimized by racism often.
As for the MLK quotes, they have nothing to do with the thread. Had they been relevant to the subject at hand, people probably would have responded to them. They aren't, so they were ignored.
The bottom line: the white people asked to leave were not injured in any way. They weren't persecuted. They're fine. The judge wanted to address members of his own race. Ch'i just explained it perfectly and trust me he knows more about black culture than either you or I will ever know.
