He'll be a victim of the world he wants to bring about, and he won't like it. Bingo. Cornel West has a lot more to take than I do, and he lives near the people he says will want to take it. Too bad, so sad ...

Yeah, you can go to the streets and watch but you'll never see West anywhere near any of them.

LOL no kidding...booger hooks on the bang bang switch AND they clearly forgot to water the crummy dope that’s behind the waste of space on the left.
I’m not worried.

going to be a bloody summer & fall in 2012, this will be zer0s doing.
I'll wager Gen. Powell will blame it on the TEA folks.
He won't say a word about this guy, or the AG or zer0
This is what a lot of anarchist, liberal democrats have wanted to happen since 1967. For a lot of them its now or never. But they didn't get our guns, gave it a go w/ the gun running, So we'll have to see what their next move is. Mine is more amo, every pay period. And range time

You wrote: “Charlatans like West were Booker T. Washingtons greatest fear for the Black community.”
To wit:
“There is another class of coloured people who make a business of keeping the troubles, the wrongs, and the hardships of the Negro race before the public. Having learned that they are able to make a living out of their troubles, they have grown into the settled habit of advertising their wrongspartly because they want sympathy and partly becausse it pays. Some of these people do not want the Negro to lose his grievances, because they do not want to lose their jobs.” - Booker T. Washington, c. 1910, Autobiographical Writings, Vol. 1, p. 430.

These primitive dildos still haven't figured out that the consequence of destroying the means of production is that there will be nothing for them to "redistribute."

This fight is already underway in every suburb surrounding a reservation for unassimilated minorities; the working people have secured their belongings against the war parties that issue forth each day from the reservation, so they have to range further looking for loot. Anyone stupid enough to believe that the reservation is safe for “haves” to pass through soon learns that crime stats are fudged, murders swept under the carpet, etc.
The fight has been in full swing for years.

Actually I believe he appeared briefly in the movie as some kind of sage council member (ha).
The guy is a complete clown.
To: Drango
"(Im trying to think of a response to the fight will be in the streets.)"Well, this is what came to my mind:
In The Streets
In the streets,
In the streets...
Where the bullets meet the meat.
They came seeking what was mine,
Said they'd take it in due time.
But they forgot the important part -
A warrior dwells within my heart.
To uphold and defend, it was the oath,
Against foreign, domestic, single or both...
They should have studied that in thier schools,
But instead they chose to be Marxist fools.
So with protest signs they trod my street,
The street where the bullets meet the meat.
