Rufus McDonald found some of the most important African-American papers in recent history and would destroy them if he doesn't get the price he wants to assure his 9 years old twins will get a college education if they so choose. What does he believe those kids will think of him when they are 29 and discover he has burned these extremely important papers. Isn't extortion still illegal? I believe he should be paid for the documents but only what would be considered a fair price. Mr. McDonald, time to grow up and teach your children the value of pride of heritage. I'm embarrassed for you.
