first it appears you have not the slightest idea of what you are talking about regards kids going to different schools, what was and is the bussing issue etc…...but thats for another tme. And your exageration regards being hunted down and hanged....I'll let that pass to fr now.
Reading your screed here, has it not occurred to you that huge strides have been made to address the issues the pastor rightfully marched for ( IF he did march; he was in the marines and navy from 61-66 and then studied at Howard for 4 years…...so lets just let the dogs sicked on him thing drop for now)
.
Anyway the point is, instead of lauding what they have here to fore overcome and making this an issue of inspiration, he has taken the low road it appears and made this an issue of desperation? Get it?
Anyone can whip up a crowd by feeding them negativity and desperation, who have that predilection already, making himself their savior under the right circumstances and he found them. ....but, imho, its pathetic. Oh and I am well aware not every one of his sermons were all negative in nature, but it appears those that he did give, where real barn burners.
And I won’t even bother with the HIV and drug peddling bullshit , you can explain those yourself if you like…
