Peacemaker, eh?
Now, that's got a nice ring to it....
Will the coffin have a giant dollar bill sign on it?
They weren't visible at the hour of his execution. One would have thought that they might have been around to have their say about their founder.
Perhaps they can't read, write, spell or care to show their faces to the national cameras. Perhaps many are on the lam. Or, they are simply too busy. You know, Bloods to kill, shopkeepers to extort, prostitutes to pimp, money to launder, cars to steal, drugs to steal, sell and take.
Busy, busy, busy.
Since he was a "peacemaker", may he rest in peace....
HOWEVER, his soul will probably burn in hell forever. Justice served.
Some should be peed on.
Jasmyne sure does have a screwed up definition of "peacemaker." She must use one of the Bill Clinton Dictionarys. I'll bet she is one of the idiots who refers to terrorists as being "freedom fighters."
This is a joke, right?
Day 5, tookie still hasn't called me from the Great Beyonce.
If drawing and quartering hadn't been abolished this would be fait acompli.
Suffice it to say that Tookie got what he deserved, and I hope he enjoys Hell.
Good point.
Will any freepers be there to surprise them?
Note to All current and wannabe gang members/bangers.
This could be YOU!!!
So go take a close look and remember.
