Why would you do that? I'm pretty sure the stat is 75% of African Americans are born out of wedlock. Maybe he was just playing the odds.

What surprised me was that the show that is on is syndicated and these calls came from all over the country.


They do not even know why they're mad. How can they be racially oppressed - which is what I heard most of the "protesters" say last night - when the mayor, the majority of the city council, and majority of the police force is black?

Of course that one lady pointed out that they brought in racist white cops from other counties.

This question has been presented to many people and I have yet to hear a legit answer.

As much as I strongly disagree with the current actions and the pillaging of poor neighborhoods, it does make me pondered.

Can you really disenfranchise people for hundreds of years and just expect them to roll over and take it? The history of man explicitly states that every time you do that, it backfires and people lash out. Every time.

So what makes this case any different? Are we just going to ignore everything we've seen before ? Based on history, this really shouldn't be that surprising..or am I crazy?

It'll never get answered. Most of us know the answer but it hasn't been said out loud.

Because 93% of admins are dickholes. I'm just playing the odds.

Still break ins and burglaries occurring but for the most part major violence is over for now this morning. There are reports making their way around on social media saying they plan to kick it off again at 2pm at a Wells Fargo and other places at 3:30pm.
