Had a great time, really enjoyed the show!

That mirrors my experiences too. Md., DC and in Watts LA too.

When I was at the University of Florida the off campus dump that my room mates and I were renting got firebombed by blacks. This was during the race riots of 1969.

Considering the shitty way blacks have been treated in this country, I don't blame them a goddamned bit.

One of my room mates was a racist piece of shit.

One day he came in bragging about how there had been a group of black kids out in the street when he came driving up and he had aimed the car right at them and floored it and made them jump out of the way. Probably why we got targeted when the rioting started.

Overall, I think blacks have shown remarkable restraint and forgiveness for all the shit they have been delt.

Hell, I agree with most of what Wright said.

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.

I think they'll either get the money, or get Bundy's cows, or put a lien on his land and get their money when he croaks. So they'll get the money one way or another. But at this point with these inane anti-gov morons, I'm sick of their posturing, and their guns, and their bullshit rhetoric. If I were king, they would have been facing down way way worse than a half dozen agents. It would have been a platoon of national guardsmen and two armored cars. And if it pissed off 5 below and Sean Hannity that's tough shit.


I'm sick of their posturing too. But not willing to stoop to their level.

I was asleep in the back bedroom.

No one else was home.

I heard the sound of breaking glass towards the kitchen and figured one of my room mates had come home drunk and dropped a booze glass or something.

A little later I heard the sound of water gushing.

The fire in the kitchen had caused the water pipes in the attic to bust.

Then I smelled the smoke so I unassed the place out the back door.

I went next door and called the Fire Department.

It was really quite an adventure for a college kid.

And that kitchen needed a good fire.

It was filthy.

The grease on the walls and stove and refrigerator was so thick you could write notes in it. When you made toast you had to run the toaster twice. First you press it down and let it heat up without any bread in it. That was so the roaches would run out. Then the second time you'd put your bread in.

Looking back on those days, I can't believe I ever lived that way.

Agree or disagree he still has the right to say it!

Not saying he was wrong, I just wish he had a bit better timing and a little less incendiary rhetoric.

It's a long game I prefer to out these white racist sacks of shit and to bury all this hatred for good. MLK had a much better strategy of dealing with it.
