Speaking of the facts, Bill, did you see the news today where a Black DC commissioner petitioned against a new Wal-mart store in her district because she knew the district's juvenile thugs could not resist the urge to commit felonies? washingtonpost.com excerpt: Brenda Speaks, a Ward 4 ANC commissioner, actually urged blocking construction of the planned store in her ward at Georgia and Missouri avenues NW partly because of that risk. Addressing a small, anti-Wal-Mart rally at City Hall on Monday, Speaks said young people would get criminal records when they couldn't resist the temptation to steal. --- In other words, she knows the "young people" cannot behave long enough to engage in the simple act of commerce. At least she's honest. Now, I'm trying to imagine a White commissioner in a majority White district having to say anything remotely like that. I keep coming up empty. Can there be any doubt why the United States as we once knew it has collapsed?
