MINI-THREAD on modern day racism.

1) Last night, Tea Pain had to go to Harrison, AR to take care of some business. On the way back he started listenin' to the Democratic debates on the radio. He got so excited listenin' to folks talkin' about real solutions that he...

2) ...practically put his foot thru the floorboard. Tea's 1984 Winnebago Brave was in rare form last night, hittin' 68 mph in a 55 zone. As you can probably guess, Tea Pain got featured in a blue light special.

3) As the officer made his way to ask for Tea's license and information, Tea was doin' the math, calculatin' how much the Little General was gonna charge for his car insurance now and how many points would be added to his license.

4) After Tea Pain thanked the officer for his service, he drove off and continued listenin' to Pete Buttigieg talk about the black feller that was shot by a white police officer in South Bend.

5) Tea Pain found himself feelin' a little guilty, because not once durin' his traffic stop did it ever cross his mind that he might be in danger of bein' shot.

6) Slavery ended two and a half centuries ago and we have made some strides in bridgin' the racial divide, but Donald Trump has easily plunged us 50 years into the past.

7) We have to work hard to gain that back, then press on to a future where every person, no matter the color of his or her skin, has the luxury of drivin' away from a traffic stop worryin' about the cost of their car insurance. <EOT>
