drove by a gang on Staten Island once all the way out near the Outer Bridge, not very built up at the time.

i was in my Z28 black convertible and they threw a bunch of curses my way.

I stopped, got out, took a look. There was about a dozen of them. looked like something out of an early 70s movie.

Got back in and drove away.

This island might belong to Italians, but right then, on that road, it belonged to them.

momma didn’t raise no fool.

I had the CRAZIEST friend named Anthony when i was younger.

first time we met, he took me through the projects and for laughs he used to tap black guys crossing at the light with his car and would burst out laughing every time!!

so many screws loose i dont know how his head held together.

or how we made it out alive.

You got out and took a look at a dozen or so ugly looking biker thugs that had already cursed at you for no apparent reason? I’m not so sure your mother didn’t raise no fool.

ah, I almost lost my life in Manhattan at fifth and 49th at 3am in the morning.

passed 4 mexicans who said something and laughed as they passed me. I told them to go @#$@ themselves, might have called them wetbacks.

one guy’s face turned so angry, i thought i saw the devil. he lunged at me and his friends pulled him off for some reason. then they and I stared at each other for about a minute. then we both walked away.

that was different.

Used to walk through the worst parts of the west side on the way to the ferry after work at 3am frequently, just to see if i could make it through ok.

probably should have sought psychiatric help. too late now.

Once upon a time the annual bike show & swap meet was a great winter break for the motorcyclists in the Denver area. Everyone who was anyone in the motorcycle community showed up. I met the Black Avenger (Ken Hamlin) there about 20 years ago. I guess the biker crowd has fixed that now. They are closer to the Black Lives Matter mob than they are to motorcyclist.

I don't think I would have gotten out.

100 percent American. You’re right. We throw around our ethnic backgrounds too easily in the northeast.

I’m an American with grandparents from Sicily.

Thank you for correcting me.

I dont like the whole “hispanic” thing. Doesn’t make it right if i do it
