Thugs don’t get rides from strangers. Not from smart strangers.

Live like a thug, die like a thug.

I just figured out why I’m afraid to laugh at your comment.
Because I think I could never stop.

I’m warning you.
IN the future, I will be using a ‘g/raceful interpretive dance’ in some comment somewhere.
My tongue remains anchored so I will live for now.

Thank you sir, you made my month.
(which thankfully has one more day)

One issue is what kind of community life we will seek to have in our country.

I want to live in a country that will not hound, harass and persecute me if a punk who jumps me in the middle of the night, cold-cocks me in the nose, knocks me to the ground and starts playing sidewalk basketball with my head winds up dead at my hands as I fight for my life.

That's the kind of community life I want to have in our country - one where punks will think twice before assaulting somebody they see as prey.

Yes, a graceful interpretive dance - I’m sure it would have made a difference....

Maybe second thoughts about the dance...

Trayvon Martin was suspended from school several times. He was caught ‘tagging‘ a door with “WTF.” Trayvon was caught with a bag full of women’s jewelry and a screw driver. The Miami Herald reported:

The Miami Gardens teen who has become a national symbol of racial injustice was suspended three times, and had a spotty school record that his family’s attorneys say is irrelevant to the facts that led up to his being gunned down on Feb. 26.

In October, a school police investigator said he saw Trayvon on the school surveillance camera in an unauthorized area “hiding and being suspicious.” Then he said he saw Trayvon mark up a door with “W.T.F” — an acronym for “what the f—.” The officer said he found Trayvon the next day and went through his book bag in search of the graffiti marker.

Instead the officer reported he found women’s jewelry and a screwdriver that he described as a “burglary tool,” according to a Miami-Dade Schools Police report obtained by The Miami Herald.

Or possibly defused it.

Spent too much time in photography.
