#8  When they start to really address black on black crime and the black culture that is tearing itself apart I'll start to consider them as serious on race. As it is now they are not much better than Sharpton.

#6  I'm an Irish guy from the suburbs - the first Black man I ever worked for was Senior Master Sergeant Dickens. Every night at guard mount he would inspect us, shake each of our hands and tell to be careful on post and come back in one piece. Then during the night he would come out and check on each and every one of us. Thanks for giving a shit about me Sarge.

#4  Well the National Socialist made a pimp and street thug their martyr, Horst Wessel. Even made a spiffy tune that went to number one in Berlin (with a bullet).

#3  There are black Americans who could be honored; honoring a black thug is an insult to these black Americans.
