you first tax them astronomical of course they cant pay so they lose the land you arrest the men in the house for vagrancy and put them in jail, now the house and the women are alone. then you get a group of "brothers" together and go up to the house drag the women out of the house gang rape them and take all their stuff.
what i love about the posters on this thread is they think 12 years of slavery is a documentary and the only true history of the south.
it sort of leaves out last months story, jessica chambers of panola county ms and her being burned to death by the black squad doesnt it?

people see and hear just what they want to
happy martin luthor king day and to all his children---- no matter who their mothers were married to

I disagree. I live in Georgia, and keeping warm is easier than keeping cool. If it dips down to 20 F, I can put on layers. If it gets up to 90 or 100 F, constant sweat and you can only take off so much before it becomes illegal.

And dressing in layers does not have to require being in heavy clothes. There is an art to doing so.

And you sure you are talking about only New York City or parts of Boston? Last I checked, this isn't going on Minneapolis, Des Moines, Cincinnati, Columbus, Kansas City.

And answer this for me. Did anyone on this thread once mention 12 Years A Slave? And can you refute anything from 12 Years A Slave? Furthermore, what does Jessica Chambers' murder have to do with this thread?

The comment about Dr. King, can you prove he had children outside of his marriage? If not, then the only thing I can gather is that you have a strong hatred for Dr. King and a resentment towards Blacks.

There is a video about it.

I'm mainly going off of what I've experienced. Many people I know seem to do okay in the heat. I tolerate the heat, but I'm the type of person who likes to walk around in cold weather.

Of whom are you talking about when you say "nutjobs"? I would be very specific about it.

I don't know why this is always an argument. It's like debating whether coffee is better than tea. Every person prefers something a little different.

I agree that there's little one can do, except stay inside, once the temperature and humidity reach certain points. However, extreme temperatures, hot or cold, will always be uncomfortable.

By the way, what does the weather have to do with "The South Will Rise Again?" I don't think the OP was asking about the temperature.

It got down in the 30s here last week and a few sleet balls dropped. I almost called it a half day.

I saw a commercial on cable TV for winter tires and I thought, how weird . Why would someone buy special tires for a season that only lasts a few days to a couple of weeks tops?



Ever worn a t-shirt and shorts on Christmas Day? I have.
I have too, and it's depressing. T. shirts and shorts aren't anything exciting or festive. "Oh, I can't make a snowman or go sledding on Christmas, but hey, at least I can wear a t. shirt and shorts! Woop! This is what Bing Crosby was singing about!" I love wearing cozy sweaters
