Why is it that whenever a large group of blacks congregate at some event, somebody is going to wind up in a body bag?

"Police Department says multiple people were shot, but did not have an exact number of victims."

I’m surprised I didn’t see a call for bets to be laid down on when, where, and number of shots fired.

The infamous Chris Rock standup on black people vs the N words is at least 28 years old now....nothing has changed since then.

The thing about the Chris Rock routine, is notice how the mostly black audience is laughing right along, they know it’s the truth.

He could never get away with that routine today though, sadly.

I have friends who live in the Washington DC area, and they went to Six Flags America theme park. They said, never again. That place attracts a pretty rough crowd, so they decided never to go there again.

There is violence at this event every year. But the media never connects the dots.

On the bright side, Turner Classic Movies started a new Juneteenth tradition last night. They screened both “Shaft” AND “Super Fly” last night. DVRed both!
