they want to remember injustices done to the black community.


Meth addiction, absentee fathers, and multiple criminal convictions are certainly injustices to that community.

but I guess that little man just had it comin'. No outrage. No protest.


Fox News had a man on, don’t know who he is or what he does in the community but he did say they had no business marching for Minneapolis or Atlanta when a 3 year old is killed in their community.

Outrage and deflection would happen. This would also denigrate the memory of those that came before.

Alfred Spurling. Never forget.

No no no it was Elton Starling



This is what really happened to Elton Starling


Blake Scareymoney and Howie Long were driving around North Baton Rouge, blaring Johnny Rebel and shaking down old ladies for protection money. They were saying, “we hate everything black. We hate the oil in our car because it’s black. We hate not being in debt because it means we are ‘in the black’. We hate that we drink coffee because it’s black. We even hate the black stripes on Mike the Tiger.”

Then athe officers drove up on Angel Alton while he was selling some CDs of a Girl Scout reading the Bible in order to buy medicine for his sick Meemaw. He had just finished making sure he had deducted the proper tax from his earnings when they arrived.

Then they put on their klan robes and attacked Angel Alton, hitting him with a bullwhip and a noose. Angel Alton had his hands up and was just praying, saying "Lord, Forgive them for they know not what they do." (I'm pretty sure that Gravy made up that phrase)

They then said "******, we're gonna kill your ****** arse because you are black and we just hate the blackies. Every one of them. We hate your black skin. We hate our tires because they are black. We only use gas to barbecue because we hate the charcoal for being black!”

Angel Alton then complied with their wishes and knelt calmly on the ground, his hands still in the air as they continually beat him. He said "Please tell my baby mamas I love them, and to make sure my children go to college. They are the treasures of our community. Gary Chambers shall carry my torch. Alleluia."

Then the cops lit a cross on fire inside of a pentagram, and told Angel Alton that they were there on the orders of Donald Trump to murder him for being such a beacon of black hope. They said "This is for Saint George". Both of them then opened fire with their automatic assault rifles and shot Angel Alton 666 times, saying "DIE ******!" Every time they pulled the trigger. Then they planted a gun on him with a note attached to it that read. "Defunitelee Elton Starlings gun. Not da po-leeces."

I heard this from my friend's roommate's cousin's hairdresser's baby daddy’s pizza delivery guy’s weed dealer so you know it's true.

It just didn't look like that from the video because of the angle

You missed the most important part of that story. Triple B Food Mart has 8 pieces of fried chicken for $3.99.

I refuse to believe that

had any political motivations in his depiction of the events.


BTW, the building that was painted and the surrounding environment was EXACTLY the stereotype I had envisioned. Very North Birmingham or West End.

he hasn't gotten any complaints about his mural, and if he does, he doesn't really care because "Now it's here to stay for everyone to see"


good to know that now murals and statues are permanent when black people say they are

it'd be a real shame if someone defaced this historical monument

a real shame

I would think, like statues, we don't need reminders up to remember. Right?

I don't watch any local news, for several years. This reminds me why.
