Those were highly volatile bits of sarcasm that billions of people would find extremely offensive. The bottom line is, it is secretly how most of them actually think & i, on the other hand, dont think or feel like that at all. So where does it come from? The collective cesspool of the best thinking of western civilization & humanity n general. I pull it from the cloud of genocidal smog.

Ferguson Police Routinely Violate Rights of Blacks, Justice Dept. Finds

WASHINGTON — Ferguson, Mo., is a third white, but the crime statistics compiled in the city over the past two years seemed to suggest that only black people were breaking the law. They accounted for 85 percent of traffic stops, 90 percent of tickets and 93 percent of arrests. In cases like jaywalking, which often hinge on police discretion, blacks accounted for 95 percent of all arrests.

The racial disparity in those statistics was so stark that the Justice Department has concluded in a report scheduled for release on Wednesday that there was only one explanation: The Ferguson Police Department was routinely violating the constitutional rights of its black residents.

The report, based on a six-month investigation, provides a glimpse into the roots of the racial tensions that boiled over in Ferguson last summer after a black teenager, Michael Brown, was fatally shot by a white police officer, making it a worldwide flash point in the debate over race and policing in America. It describes a city where the police used force almost exclusively on blacks and regularly stopped people without probable cause. Racial bias is so ingrained, the report said, that Ferguson officials circulated racist jokes on their government email accounts.

Oprah Chai. Yes, that Oprah.

It’s not bad but it tastes like how I assume she smells — all perfume-y.

OMG.. Far Behind by Candlebox just came on the radio and the only thing I could think was Kenny Powers dancing at that funeral with that little orange and white boom box.

Peeps, here’s your video for today…

PUBLIC SERVICE BROADCASTING is my new favorite band. Today.

How could you not love the staccato hustling of clean guitars? The feel good upbeat of those horns? The broadcast vocals overlay? The synchronized space suite dancing?

I would totally trade-in my day job to be a bopping choreographed cosmonaut. Just saying.
