Considering the shitty way blacks have been treated in this country, I don't blame them a goddamned bit. Overall, I think blacks have shown remarkable restraint and forgiveness for all the shit they have been delt.
Whoa! I grew up in Watts, LA. We were there through the whole '64 riot. We just stayed in the house and family friends stood guard. It was like touring a bombed out city in Europe afterwards. Dad packed us all up and we drove past miles and miles of burnt out buildings and homes.
