People should play rugby. Much safer than wrestling.

I have almost reached the regrettable conclusion that the Negro's great stumbling block in his stride toward freedom is not the White Citizen's Counciler or the Ku Klux Klanner, but the white moderate, who is more devoted to "order" than to justice; who constantly says: "I agree with you in the goal you seek, but I cannot agree with your methods of direct action"; who paternalistically believes he can set the timetable for another man's freedom; who lives by a mythical concept of time and who constantly advises the Negro to wait for a "more convenient season."

I can understand getting the money from the school, but that much money for something that small is hard to understand. I mean it would be just as bad if you got warts from wrestling the guy.

Warts can be cured or removed. Herpes can't.

Common misconception actually, warts are a Virus and can't be cured, they can be removed from the visual area though, just like herpes can be suppressed.

Very well. But they can still be removed, eliminating a source of transmission. Herpes can't.
