...poorest children showed that the moral compass wasn't there. And that's linked to the other defining moment, dragging us through Monica, which also happened because the moral compass wasn't there.

A Crips team. A Lubavitch Hasidim team. Aryan Nations, Khmer Rouge, Hutu, Tutsi, Royal Ulster Constabulary, Jews for Jesus, Hizballah.
