It's also how you get street cred

What DonDiego is suggesting is that if BLM really cared about "Black Lives" and concentrated on Black-on-Black violence, they could well save more Black Lives than just popping up whenever there is a confrontation between Police and Black suspects and encouraging destructive protests, . . . things like theft of stores (disproportionately drug stores for some reason), arson, personal assaults, and general mayhem.
Of course devising a plan to reduce Black-on-Black crime is much more difficult and less entertaining than encouraging protests over assumed-felonious police violence against Blacks.

Bob, do you by chance ever run across a long time drag racing guy named John West (aka Johnny West)? He has owned teams, driven nitro, and won a couple of World Championships back in the day. He now owns a company in Phoenix selling components for the cars.
He used to live in my old Indiana town, and we would golf now and then.Quote

I was in Charlotte last week to work at the NHRA Carolina Nationals at ZMAX Dragway, next to the Charlotte Motor Speedway. I flew home Monday afternoon...looks like that was good timing.
Something I find very unusual about your statement, and all of the controversy surrounding the NC law concerning public restrooms is, I have only seen one public restroom that had a sign on it designating it as being a UNISEX restroom. That was last weekend, and the restroom was at ZMAX Dragway, a sports stadium in North Carolina.

QuoteThe same argument could be used - and has been used - to justify segregation. I mean why should we risk allowing THOSE people to sit at our lunch counters. Likewise, it's been used to justify discrimination in housing, jobs, and education. And after a people are historically subject to the above, they end up poorer, less healthy, less educated, angrier and.....more prone to crime. Funny how that works out.
