AGAIN here is the difference- The Black man was denied water. The White man refused their food. He’d eat when he got hungry enough.
Denying water kills a man. Offering food to a man then he refuses; he is killing himself.

It was a touch of finesse to use a Russian proverb, and in this case very fitting. There’s an old Russian proverb: “The tallest blade of grass is the first cut by the scythe.” In other words, stand up first and be seen, and you’ll be the target. Romney is experiencing this.
