Melanin Tax!!!
Yes folks!
I got a ticket for BEATING ON A POT ON ST-LAURENT AT 3 IN THE MORNING
just after coming out of a hip hop night at Saphir. We were beatboxing
and rapping and I was hammering out beats on a pot. Cops came. When
me and my friends protested they called in three more squad cars. Ther
were about 40 people or more outraged. I contested the ticket which
basically read 'beating on a pot in public'. Didn't get an answer in
almost 6 months, I forgot about the ticket and eventually moved.
Last nite my friend got pulled over for a 'routine check' (he was
white, and still is by the way.) you can go to http://chimpzilla.blogspot.com/
for a piece of his mind. Anyways, turns out there's been a WARRANT out
for me and they placed me UNDER ARREST. Punched it up and the ticket
(which was probably $120 or there abouts plus a Bullshit Fee of $50)
and whatever extras they decided to add in the past ccouple years
comes out to $379!!
That's rent.
Plus groceries.
And a good night with an albino midget with no teeth.
So!
I'm throwing a MelaninTax Party where people will dress up as a cop or a
thug. There'll be tunes a DJ and donation jar. Hopefully this will provide
the opportunity to not only soften the blow but help WORLDS COLLIDE!!!!
in my network of friends.
I suggest the same if any kind of BULLSHIT such as this come syour way!!!
Cheerz and thanx 4 listening
(oLo)

Man, it sucks to be you sometimes. Hope the party balances things out.
Be well,

Hah! that's hilarious! 'It sucks to be you sometimers'!
It seems 'racial' prejudice in these times has mutated itsself in the form of an aids pt II. Whereas 50 years ago - they would have just pounded on and beat any old non-white person...now they just maintain their power and do law enrapeage like that. What's in those jelly donuts they've been eating?
Have a great party though! Wish I could be there
Bless
party. food. yay!
i'll bring the bacon! heh heh!
