| Most behaviour patterns like that stem from jealousy, so admittingly, it was an easy guess. |

| no mine stems from the fact that the "victims" were majority a group of fucking morons who did not have the sense to get the fuck out of dodge in the first place, then bitch and moan that no one does anything quick enough, then gets $2,000 for being a concentrated group of bumblefucks, then sees it appropriate to go ahead and waste money at a casino. i want my $0.35 cents back from that woman since she has $1.6 million now, since that is probably around what money of my taxes went to her. |

shows that for 2004 tax year, they collected roughly $2,018,502,103,000
So, take her $2000 as a percentage of that, then multiple that percentage to what you paid and I would venture to guess she got roughly at most $0.000009 cents of *your* money.
I'll personally give you back your share. |

| you and arch must have been holding hands when that boat set sail.
sorry unlike any liberal whiney cry baby with a wet diaper would like to believe, a great majority of the white middle class do not look at race as a means for any end. thus, this post, if it needs to be analitically broken down has nothing to do with the fact that an African American woman won a $1.6 million dollar jackpot, it has to do with the fact that she lost her house and was living with her sister, and instead of using her money for savings towards another house, she went to the casino and would have blown a big chunk of change, had it of course not been for her being at that exact machine at that exact time.
my reaction and opinion would be the same had it of been a white person from Arkansas or Mississippi. the current year is.... 2005... lynching and tom crowe laws died a long time ago. let go and move the fuck on. |
