They only need a pair of pall bearers since trash cans come with only two handles.

Speaking of which, did Michael Brown’s mother or father bother to apologize to the store clerk for the assault he suffered and pay for the merchandise their son stole (assuming this store is still standing)?

Does the black community and Brown’s parents have any responsibility for what happened?

Was Michael Brown taught that all whites are racist?
Was Michael Brown taught that all white cops are racist?
Was Michael Brown taught to challenge police authority rather than to respect it?
Was Michael Brown taught that he was entitled because he was a victim?

Michael Brown robbed a store and walked down the middle of the street with the merchandise.

“Unarmed” and “Hands Up” will be the top names for black male babies this year. “Hands Up” Washington will make a great linebacker.

Okay, I have no use for any of these bozos in the first place. I think their work sucks

Disagree. I detest the racist creep, but Lee's Malcolm X and Inside Man were expertly directed.

I forget the title of his talk, but Evan Sayet diagnosed this perfectly in a now-famous speech on why liberals/leftists always pick evil over good. Their first premise is that discrimination is bad.

Thus, “Obama” ignores the death and funeral of Gen. Greene, and sends forty race-baiting lawyers to Ferguson, and three emissaries to the funeral of a shoplifting punk.

Ah, what a wonderful world we would have if we could just stick all “celebrities and activists” into a single sack and drown the lot of them.

Goes back to the old "Shut up and sing" issue, I guess.

Lee's abilities to direct performers in certain areas of endeavor are notable.

But his whining about the white devil being the root cause of every problem the black man has ever had is intolerable...and therefore denigrates every thing he has done and effectively turns him and his work into a bete noire.
