[Section 40]

22 years ago today this asshole killed himself, exposing to the world the city of Boston's treatment of the black community based on the word of one murdering scumbag.

I think a lot of people would be surprised at how little has changed in the minds of most of the country regarding Boston and race relations.

[rearadmiral]

Old stereotypes die hard.

[lugnutz]

As someone who spent a lot of time there in the early 90's and now........its 100000000 times better.

[B Luc]

Yes and No.

[lugnutz]

Well if you still feel it I have to respect that. But i recall having my haircut in Brighton while 3 or 4 white dudes talked about how some dumb n$%#r tried to go in there yesterday and have his haircut. I haven't heard anyone that bad in recent years.

[B Luc]

It still exists, trust me. It's not as bad as it was 15-20 years ago, but it's definitely still exists.

Also, you can spell the word out. it doesn't bother me in the least.

[lugnutz]

Bugs the fuck out of me....as it should any white dude haha

I do remember the incident at Jeremy s well enough to know how you feel haha

[B Luc]

That kid was just a douche in general.
