“When I got up there, the lady, she was just sitting there and she didn’t have no legs,” Smith said. “She didn’t have no legs at all. She was just calm, probably in shock from everything.”

i’m sorry but doesn’t that mean she DID have legs? when two negatives are combined... when is the public school system going to start teaching people how to speak??

Yes. At least that's what we were told thirty five years ago. Sometimes with a ruler to the head. As expensive as it is for them not to teach, I'd hate to see the bill if they were to start.
