How many books did Tookie sell

Posted on 12/15/2005 10:10:39 PM PST by airedale

I know this is a dead issue and I don't want to flog a dead horse, but I was wondering how many of the children's books that Tookie wrote were actually sold? I know there were 9 of them but not one media source ever said how many of them were sold.

I think it was a around a thousand at most. I don't really remember even any exact numbers either.

I could be wrong though.

Use the white-out marker on that extra "A". Thank you.

Doesn't matter. Not relevant to justice.

I understand that sales were pretty dead for most of Tookie's author career.

What's the rush? There's plenty of time to kill.

You realize when Tookie died that he became a registered voter again ? That ain't justice !

Not very darn many. There are FReepers who have sold more books.

Hopefully he will fill the ballot out wrong. Then it will be a dead ballot.

My understanding is that only two of his books sold; One sold 300 copies and the second one sold only two copies.

I don't know how many sales have resulted from the recent brouhaha surrounding this dead monster. Before the Big Media machine ramped up their propaganda campaign, his most successful book had sold only 330 copies.

I wish I'd bought one of his less successful copies. I'd have mailed it to him in prison for him to sign, pretending to be a clueless youngster "saved from the gang lifestyle through his wisdom in prose". Then, after his inevitable demise, I'd flog it on ebay and make a tidy bit of cash from the bleeding heart idiots who supported that monster. Such idiots do not deserve to keep their money.

If only I'd thought of this plan about a year ago.

How about we let Tookie rest in peace. Anyone with the ability to take another life is a tortured soul, to say the least. There is no purpose in beating a corpse. He got the full measure of what he deserved.

So what you're saying is that I shouldn't dig him up, pee on his corpse, and then re-bury him upside-down?
