    Chicago and the nation are mourning the passing of legendary civil rights activist, Jesse Jackson. Although the family's request for him to lie in state at the Capitol rotunda was denied, his casket will be trotted out at 4 different venues in Chi-Town and DC, and his South Carolina birthplace. In embellishing his acquaintance with Jesse, Trump called him "a piece of work". Take's one to know one... RIP Jesse.
  2. Correct. The white folks in the least affected part of New Orleans protected their turf with guns. The police were shooting folks too. A few Black folks got shot & died. I Right. Those wards right outside the French Quarter were prime real estate to developers who wanted to swoop in and rebuild it after the hurricane. I'll always believe certain aspects of the aftermath of hurricane Katrina were planned &/or allowed to happen. Follow the money.😎
  3. Ofcourse it's not UP for discussion......lol. We all know why you haven't chosen to leave...."robust invite" or not. You don't want to leave because you have several "addictions" keeping you here. Addiction #1: FOOD Addiction #2: HOT WATER Addiction #3: ELECTRICITY Addiction #4: WI-FI Addiction #5: CLEAN UNDERWEAR It's easy to trash America when you're sitting in a cozy room sipping on warm apple cider and tapping away on your computer keyboard....lol. But if you had to LEAVE America and live in a third world country........ It's hard to keep your focus when the only thing you have to eat is a can of sardines, the lights and electricity keeps flickering on and off, and General Bar-B-Que and his boys are kicking in doors and popping caps all around the hood and the sounds keep getting closer and closer.....lol. "Tribes? Oh.....you have...ehhhh..... tribe? So do I. I am....ehh...zehhh....Chief of my tribe. They call me Chief....ehh....Bar-B-Que. I shall show you why!"

    ProfD I don't know WHAT Cynique was talking about. You were posting messages a day or 2 before she made the thread. It wasn't like you were gone for a week or a month....lol. Dang...... Any playa is entitled to a break from playing every ONCE in a while.....lol. People got business to 'tend to. But like Troy, if you DO go for an extended period of time your presence would be truly missed around here. However we're used to Troy dipping out for weeks at a time and so it doesn't hit as hard....lol. Besides being one of the few people who agree with me from time to time......lol...your wit, intelligence, and insight is invaluable. Play on playa. ✊🏿
