UPDATE
"civility" is used by white people as a cudgel against people of color fighting oppression
I agree with you that it can be used as such. I also would point out that, again, that doesn't mean it's always used like that.
I'm pretty sure there's a large number of mothers who would smack their sons silly if their boys mouthed off to them the way Mr. Brooks has been mouthing off to the judge, regardless of skin color.
from my perspective it is pretty much always used like that
And I would never suggest that your perspective is invalid.
Nevertheless the courtroom does have certain rules of conduct and he has violated them repeatedly.
But more to the point the nature of what he says and how he says it still suggest the pattern of behavior classic to that of an abusive person.
you are saying my perspective is invalid by continuing to disagree
I am sorry if I have made you feel this way with what I've said. It was not my intention.
its okay everyone makes mistakes the important thing is that we learn and grow
