I scrub on my hands and knees daily two bathrooms and a kitchen and I have my nails done. They are very resilient

I had not read the comments until you pointed them out. But, Wow! Off to take a shower after that....

What's your point?

I live in the Memphis area. I see plenty of white people do stupid things everyday.

Geez she was having a bad day!

Start out all happy because you got to cash your welfare check and get your nails done all pretty...

...and the cops nail you for leaving the kids alone in a car.

THEN you pull a bag of weed out of your purse...

THEN one of the kids points your illegal gun at the cops...

now that the start of a bad day!

Well, clearly the moral of the story is that we need:

a) Much tighter gun control laws.

b) Free childcare for “underprivileged” women who want to get their hair and nails done. I am on the fence as to whether this should be done through direct subsidies to the mothers or by mandating that all hair and nail salons provide a childcare center with a licensed staff, dietitian (we simultaneously have an “epidemic of childhood obesity” and a “hunger crisis” among poor children, you know), and registered nurse on duty at all times. All these workers would have to be unionized, of course.

*Of course* the kid had a gun!

What kind of mother would leave her under-4 year old kids in the car in a rough Memphis neighborhood without a gun to defend themselves?? That’s just bad parenting, right there.

And I thought FreeRepublic was pro-2nd amendment... ;)

The kid is lucky this happened in Memphis, rather than NYC. Mike Bloomberg would have had the 2 year old charged as an adult, for illegal gun possession, and he would be facing a minimum of 3 1/2 years in prison. He wouldn't get out until he was nearly 6.

What I don’t understand is why the cops didn’t shoot the kid at least 40 times, kill every dog on the block, rough up some old ladies, and burn down the hair salon just to be sure.

Isn’t that standard protocol these days?

...these gals must never garden, cook or clean.

They don't even have to endorse the welfare check any more, what with direct deposit and the food stamp debit cards...
