  • Fuck Spike Lee. Make a new movie. I'm glad Reggie Miller showed him up.

    What is that, a Titleist? A hole in one...

  • Wow. I'm so relieved that Spike might allow for the possibility that I am unhappy with The President's liberty crushing policies and world view, and not simply the color of his skin.

    I'd imagine it's liberals that are the unhappiest with his administration. They were hoping for some real change in the country's economic policy. Obama turned out to be a right-of-center corporate whore.

    Just as some of us said it would be the last time we were seeing the Republicans (now they call themselves "conservatives") going apeshit crazy when it was clear Obama / Biden were going to defeat McCain /Palin after the connies gave McCain an anchor bigger than one that was on the last carrier flew from.

    Bob, are you saying white people wanted George Zimmerman lynched? But why? Isn't he a 'white Hispanic'?

    let us know where marijuana use is in the Constitution.

    So predictable. Spike may agree that race isn't at the core of everyone's opposition to Obama but it is at the core of yours.

Three businesses dominate the block: a storefront radio station, where a smooth-talkin' deejay (Samuel L. Jackson) spins the platters that matter; a convenience store owned by a Korean couple; and Sal's Famous Pizzeria, the only white-operated business in the neighborhood. Sal (Danny Aiello) serves up slices with his two sons, genial Vito (Richard Edson) and angry, racist Pino (John Turturro). Sal has one black employee, Mookie (Spike Lee), who wants to "get paid" but lacks ambition. His sister Jade (Joie Lee, Spike's sister), who has a greater sense of purpose and a "real" job, wants Mookie to start dealing with his responsibilities, most notably his son with girlfriend Tina (Rosie Perez). Two of Mookie's best friends are Radio Raheem (Bill Nunn), a monolith of a man who rarely speaks, preferring to blast Public Enemy's rap song Fight The Power on his massive boom box; and Buggin' Out (Giancarlo Esposito), nicknamed for his coke-bottle glasses and habit of losing his cool. When Buggin' Out notes that Sal's "Wall of Fame," a photo gallery of famous Italian-Americans, includes no people of color, he eventually demands a neighborhood boycott, on a day when tensions are already running high, that incurs tragic consequences.

    to folks like Hannity, Limbaugh, etc. killing an unarmed black kid is much more impressive than whatever ill feelings they might have about Zimmerman's ethnicity..

    Yeah, pretty much all white republicans or libertarians are in favor of killing as many unarmed black kids as possible. Certainly that's more impressive to them than killing or deporting all hispanics, but probably not by much.

    Yep. It's crazy the rampage of black people killing that those evil conservative white folks are allowed to get away with.
    Just look at the numbers! Oh....wait....hmmm. Well, facts be damned, somehow it's Sean Hannity and Rush Limbaugh's fault.
