Cold Case

I am a selfish person.

I watched Cold Case...Out of boredom and pretty nice stonedom. And it was good until I started criticising it. There was a scene of two bodies of a woman and a man, dumped. Next scene was the coppers going to this place where the road workers have dug up 30 years later. The problem I had was; the two bodies wre dumped, with the girl on her back with her clothes pretty and nice, with her make up all nice, but whan they were dug up they were in body bags, the white plastic jobbies they use now adays. 30 years ago they had brown bags I thought. Anyway to sum up don't you ever criticise a film while you are watching it. Doing it after is anther fact of life.

And the adverticement after was, "Benefit thiefs beware.I am watching you". Shit man: the very first time you sign on, according to the bloody gov, you are committing fraud. That was what I felt when I did sign. I feel the same today.

Another One Bites The Dust

I am a selfish person.

It was a long long time before time. I was in a pub in Easton, Bristol and came up to the barl for more, from the garden side. There was a couple of bar flies, who didn't notice my presence. The woman said to the man, "I am pissed off with the future king's mum fucking a fucking paki." Innocent as I am I didn't understand what that was all about at that time and didn't give a thought about it until the bar man came up to me and the bar flies noticed me. See I am kind of paki looking guy with dreads coming up to me arse. Both looked guiltily surprised to see me. Nodded to them and got me drinks and got back.

Few weeks later Diana the next kings wife died in a car crash. It took me a fair few weeks to get what that bar conversation was about. Its incredible when you sit back and wonder what was that about.

Few months later I was in the same pub and I was in the main room as it was getting towards winter. There still were lots of Diana's photos behind the bar. The bar flies were there too. I just wondered what their thoughts were at that time. I wish I was a fly on the wall.

English Only

I am a selfish person.

On Saturday, Pat Buchanan hosted a conference to discuss how Republicans can regain a majority in America. During one discussion, panelists suggested supporting English-only initiatives as a prime way of attracting "working class white Democrats." The discussion ridiculed Judge Sotomayor for the fact that she studied children’s classics to improve her grammar while attending college. The panelists also suggested that, without English as the official language, President Obama would force Americans to speak Spanish.



One salient feature of the event was the banner hanging over the English-only advocates. The word conference was spelled “Conferenece.” View it below:

I am a selfish person.

THere is this man called Mr Eddie in UK who is an alcoholic.He gets drunk and cause minor offences, like go to Sainsburies and piss on the magazine stand and try to nick a christmas tree. Then the police arrest him and then next day they take him to the good old magistrates. He gets fined a small amount, but as he has already spent a day in custody, and due to his medical condition as an alcoholic, he is set free. He has a record as to be arrested and locked up, in the local nick. And the coppers has named one of the cells "Eddie". Culture mate culture.

What It's Like to be Black In America

I am a selfish person.

I hope this does not happen in good old blighty. I sometimes worry as the credit crunch bites deeper and all the political parties are in disarray, with bagful of tax payer's money in their pockets. The Fat Fucking Bastards. The EU election results will tell us more. I was homeless a few times myself.

Yellow Laces

On April 18, 1992, the ATF Birmingham Field Office received a call from the Birmingham Police Department. Just before 4 a.m. that morning, a Birmingham police officer on patrol had responded to an apparent fatal industrial accident.

At the scene, the officer saw that a railroad train had run over a man, whose left foot was severed. But the officer also observed a trail of blood leading from the man's bedroll beneath a bridge, where homeless people often slept, to his body some 20 feet away. The man's face was cut and he had a stab wound in his chest. The victim was black.

Meanwhile, about 20 minutes earlier, two officers patrolling the nearly empty streets had seen someone throw an object through the passenger side window of a blue Chevy Malibu not far from the railroad tracks. They stopped to retrieve what turned out to be a 12-inch hunting knife. It was dripping with blood.

The occupants of the vehicle included three young men who were members of Riccio's skinhead network.

Four months earlier, on Christmas Eve, another homeless man was beaten to death beneath the same bridge. Yet another was found unconscious on the road below. It appeared that he'd jumped from the overpass to escape the same fate.

The violence continued. On April 16, 1992, just two days before the victim with the severed foot was discovered, a group of homeless black men were sleeping beneath the bridge when several young white men drove up in a red truck. One of them stabbed a man in the back. He spent a week recovering in a hospital.

The spate of violence sharpened the focus of McEntire's investigation. It also prompted him to enlist the help of Dave Behrend, a six-foot-two, 245-pound ATF agent who assumed the role of bodyguard for the leader of the White Reich.

During McEntire and Behrend's first visit to Riccio's after the discovery of the severed-foot murder victim, the atmosphere was unusually subdued. They noticed two skinheads slip outside. They were Louis Oddo, a hulking thug, and Adam Galleon, a skinny kid who sported a white supremacist tattoo on his head. The two undercover agents watched them whisper together intently. Neither Oddo nor Galleon had been in the car when the four skinheads were arrested on April 18. The two agents glanced at one another. They were both thinking the same thing: the whispering skinheads were involved in the murders and attacks.

At a Birmingham-area rally several weeks later, Behrend overheard another skinhead exclaim, "You ain't shit until you earn your yellow shoelaces."

Some skinheads wear yellow laces in their combat boots to signal that they've killed someone. McEntire remembers thinking the skinheads were murdering homeless men "for a damned pair of yellow shoelaces."
