---Easley served time in state prison for receiving stolen property and burglary and was paroled last year.---

A 22 year old coming out of the California prison system is almost automatically going to have some serious issues with race. They ought to investigate the state prison system. I think we're incubating a lot of our problems there.

It's funny how the people most obsessed with their racial superiority are those who have little claim to be superior to anything except a few cockroaches, and maybe not even them.
