too much mayn.. too damn much

awhile back, i was driving the company truck with my boss, and we were on the 880 driving past downtown oakland.. while talking about cops (i think that's what we were talking about) my boss says to me, "i feel sorry for black people".. the first word that came to my mind was "racist".. but he explained what he was thinking.. "black kids usually don't have fathers, they're all locked up" and statiscally, especially in oakland, this has a fat amount of truth.. but in my head i was thinking, he still didn't have to generalize it to all black people..

fast-forward to now, or the past couple months, i think.. with the story about the jena 6.. are you kidding me?.. giving poor Mychal Bell prison time for a schoolyard fight that some racists instigated??.. and frickin prosecutor reed has the nerve to say that it has nothing to do with the fact that he's black.. oh my lawd.. and then i read something about how racists ass white teens drive through a protest in a truck with FUCKIN NOOSES hanging out the back.. and how the fuck does this not make any headlines i'm readin?.. oh that's right, there's worst shit going on.. thinks like barry bonds being a cheater, michael vick fighting dogs and then killing them, and other high profile black people doing things worse than being an outright racist..

my heart goes out to those black folk that have to deal with that BS, but i'm not gonna say i feel sorry for them.. i feel sorry for all those racists that have to stand before Him and prove to Him that they are worthy of salvation..

yea.. your president may be a racist and a catholic too, but that won't save your ass..

speaking of michael vick, wally had this really good article written by a black writer at ESPN about the deeper story of all this focus on michael vick.. and how it divides our country.. so if you'll be ever so kind, walter, to hook me up with that link somewhere, on my facebook or in the comments.. or something..
