did you see those JFP chatroom contents?
is that the Fondren contingent?
i used to know a girl who writes for them....big lefty
the e-mail I saw was Johnston not Johnson
Yes. The Fondren crowd is suicidally Left-leaning and proud of it.
They seem to believe that living near the ghetto is evidence of intelligence, open-mindedness and (of course) moral superiority. But in reality, it's just an exciting flirtation with danger.
None of them have the cojones to go full-bore and actually live IN the ghetto. On a visceral level, they must know moral superiority isn't worth much six feet under.
btw, it strikes me that there's some analogy between extreme sports addicts and Fondren residents. What do you think?
(1) I participate in extreme sports to feel more alive. B/c I am more alive than you, I am better than you. I find exhiliration in things that make others tremble.
(2) I live in Fondren to feel more alive. Because I am more alive than you I am better than you. I find exhiliration living where others are afraid to live.
