That's a lot of text, but I fail to see your point. Is there one?

In keeping with the spirit of the author; freedom is not a goal, but a direction. And broadly speaking, we're moving in the right direction.

Unfortunately, you sound like you've become somewhat of a zealot. A byproduct of being spoon fed rage via the nightly media /twitter cycle.

Statistically there's one specific group of peoples that drive a disproportionate amount of violent crime. Specifically murder, rape, robbery, and assault.

I think stepping back and realizing how far we've come, not only as a country but also globally is worth recognizing. Harboring venom from past wrongs won't do you any good; if anything it appears to be obfuscating the present.
