        Hey "O"Ring, You should not say that to FatJoey. I agree with him. Now that Uncle Tom was elected, all of the Porch Monkeys get a hard on and think that they "rule the world". In no time this country will become "The Planet Of The Apes"!!!!!!

          it would be absolutely hilarious if you said that in front of some folks of color and watch how long your hearbeats for...you have balls on a discussion forum but in life you would run and hide.

          go listen to some 80's reject heavy hair metal you degenerate...

    I am sorry to say that Watts will remain the way it has been in the last 30 years. It is NOT the govt. who is going to change things, it is the individuals. Why is there trash everywhere - because individuals do not take it upon themselves to clean up. That is why you have individual responsibility with democracy
