Personally, I think you should both take this to a chat room and quit
bothering the rest of us.


"I wish you enough sun to keep your attitude bright. I wish you enough rain
to appreciate the sun more. I wish you enough happiness to keep your spirit
alive. I wish you enough pain so that the smallest joys in life appear much
bigger. I wish you enough gain to satisfy your wanting. I wish you enough
loss to appreciate all that you possess. I wish enough "Hello's" to get you
through the final "Good-bye."  My friends and loved ones, I wish you ENOUGH"

You continue to quote statistics if they were the gospal, how sad. Any first
year college student knows that statistics can be slanted. In the first
place there are more whites in jail, simply because there are more whites
than blacks. You do not even bother to give accurate information about your
statistics. I love to deal with your kind, and your blind ignorance.

This is Virginia History, not a forum for you to push your warped views on
others.

              Why would I want to fall into your bigotted sterotyping???

"... and white folks in jail,..."

 From http://www.ojp.usdoj.gov/bjs/prisons.htm

 "...At yearend 2002 there were 3,437 sentenced black male prisoners per
100,000 black males in the United States, compared to 1,176 sentenced
Hispanic male inmates per 100,000 Hispanic males and 450 white male inmates
per 100,000 white males. "

 >>>Yup, there are white folks in jail, just not as many statistically as
black folks, racist woman.
