He found the use of the act as justifiable, but that it may not have been necessary had the situation been anticipated better by government and law enforcement. He also criticized the implementation of freezing assets of protestors.

Anyone who builds homes for poor people when he's old as hell, and swears off the Southern Baptist Church to boot, is a good man in my book. I know of a former president that I'd like to see Big Macs fired into its maw with a cannon.
If you get to thinking you’re a person of some influence, try ordering somebody else’s dog around.

Mr. Carter is choosing to end his life the way he lived it, with dignity and grace.

teachings of the Bible are so muddled and self-contradictory that it was possible for Christians to happily burn heretics alive for five long centuries. It was even possible for the most venerated patriarchs of the Church, like St. Augustine and St. Thomas Aquinas, to conclude that heretics should be tortured (Augustine) or killed outright (Aquinas). Martin Luther and John Calvin advocated the wholesale murder of heretics, apostates, Jews, and witches. - Sam Harris, "Letter To A Christian Nation"

First president I got to vote for at 18.
