    Don’t kid yourselves.

    Montgomery, Alabama is close to a boiling point The white people are losing influence and pissed off. The current (black) mayor is doing a fantastic job, but he’s being opposed by some HUGE money developers interested in building out East rather than revitalizing the city.

    The casual racism in Montgomery is beyond what you might think possible. The entire US has abandoned Alabama.

      That dock is one of the places the slaves ships came in, and the cotton went out.

      Its not a coicidence some racist shit birds decided to gang up on and attack a black man just doing his job.

      I think this is less racial issue and more of affluenza issue.

      why is why the mayor said that ALL of the fighting was intolerable; not just the asshats that attacked
