sfgate. ^ | March 20, 2009

Others walked out of a church where he spoke. Yet he insists his tough stand is welcome in some quarters of a state capital racked by crime, much of it black-on-black.

Is this “desperation run amuck”? I think this is in poor taste, seeing as how so many innocents met their death this way in the past. He could have come up with another method.

Why is it that if a White even touches a rope he is condemned for racism?

He should be careful, he doesn’t want to end up like Melton. Such a shame, Buford Pusser did things his way and they made movies about him, Melton tried the “Walking Tall” approach and ended up in Federal court.

“Others walked out of a church where he spoke”

How much do you want to bet if the esteemed Reverend Jeremiah Wright was giving one of his hate Whitey speeches they would have given him a standing ovation.

It will be interesting to see just how many votes he DOES get in the primary. He may get a lot of support from black people who are SICK of being victims!

Well, Jackson residents are getting pretty fed up with the situation. What once was a nice city is now full of thugs.

Yeah, and we all know how important "good taste" is in these matters, as well as keeping clear of any symobolic connection to the methods of some of the more extreme Democrat party elements more than half a century ago.

How do you feel about "moving on?" Dot org?

I'm writing him in for governor up here.
a 62-year-old, black Republican mayoral candidate in Mississippi's largest city. Long-shot George Lambus... insists his tough stand is welcome in some quarters of a state capital racked by crime, much of it black-on-black.

I don’t expend one moment of energy thinking about it. The pic is a little strange at this time. Why are you sniffing, because I don’t believe in killing innocent people, when we are not at war? Not that killing innocents at war is a good thing either, but sometimes there are unavoidable civilian casualties.
