The DVDs and CDs were on sale immediately after the address."

What will happen to his "Fruits of Islam"?

Notice the unrelieved positive media coverage that this man gets. I guess if you're the right kind of nutcase, the news media loves you.

R&B singer Anita Baker, who lives in Detroit, apparently contacted the Nation of Islam when she learned that Saviours' Day would be celebrated in the Motor City to determine what role she could play.

And what a piece of work this idiot is. A few years ago she tried to demolish the Chene House - the oldest house in Detroit and one of the oldest wood houses in the country.

When the courts ruled that it was an historical site and could not be torn down - she ignored them and had bulldozers smash the historic building into a pile of rubble and had it replaced with an International House of Pancakes.

Her reason for demolishing the historic edifice was "There was a restaurant in that building in the 1930s and they wouldn't serve blacks - so it deserved to be torn down."

And what happened to Ms. Baker when she broke the law and ignored the court ruling?

Absolutely nothing.

Saviour Day? Wuzzat? Loonie Looies birthday?

Watch this outfit come apart at the seams within 6 months after LL assumes room temp.

I have seen it happen again and again, a 'religion' (very loosely used BTW) based on a single maniacal leader.

AKA Cult of Personality.

The one worry, what will the Fruit of Islam become? The New Black Panthers?

Oh well, time will tell.
