I've actually heard some stories about places here in Texas and I'm Louisiana that should be shocking and unbelievable.

Those guys who killed James Byrd were convicted of capital murder, one was already executed and the other still on death row. What could a hate crime enhanced sentence possibly do to deter people who aren't deterred by the death penalty in a state that means business about the death penalty? And why are some people entitle to more equal protection under the law than others?

One of these days the knockout punks will go after the wrong person and get themselves good & dead. Probably by some old white guy with a gun. And then... it will be all the old white guys fault. The Rev. "Bug Eye" Jackson & The Rev. "Outshoppin" will be on primetime spewing their outrage.

I salute you, sir! Your rectal/cranium inversion has just inspired what may turn out to be the longest thread in Pelican history, someday surpassing all tit/legs/ass and intercontinental jibber-jab threads in all time page clicks for Wayne.

Well done!

Back to the topic instead of the personal attacks...
Does any of this remind anyone of Kubrick's A Clockwork Orange ?
