They need to avoid white violence? WTF? Intra-race violence is far more common, in general, than white-on-POC violence. Statistically, the POCs are safer in white communities than they are in their own.

In years past, there were a lot of housing developments that had clauses restricting black people, Jews, etc from buying or renting the houses. Just because the homes were privately owned doesn't make it OK.

Fair enough. Students need to understand the concept of Buyer Beware when it comes to student loans, along with a crackdown on these grifters. The loan grifting works the other way too. Check this one out...

Damn dude... that is just so wrong. It was Flavor Aid, not Kool Aid. In all seriousness, that event was a terrible tragedy. I knew several people that died in that (elementary and junior high classmates). One was a personal friend during 5th grade... a great kid. I wrote about him...

Hey, that reminds me. What do you guys think about the Fatty Arbuckle murder case? I always thought he got off easy, myself.

And I'll raise you the previous Democrat Speaker of the House (Nancy Pelosi). She had an exorcism performed at her house after her husband was hit with a hammer so as to chase away the evil spirits. Now that is some serious batshit insane religious nuttery right there. I wonder if there was...

The gaffe would be more forgivable if it wasn't for the fact that she previously served as a member of the Science Committee and the Ranking Member on the Space and Aeronautics Subcommittee. I would have liked to have been a fly on the wall in those meetings. Not sure whether I would have...

I wouldn't worry about that. They're mostly peaceful, but if you happen to see one near your house carrying a ladder and wearing a balaclava in summer, you would be wise to start asking questions.
