They’re normally spot on.

Just look at the pictures… they look like very unscrupulous people.

Is it wrong to judge a book by its cover?

Regardless, its great publicity for the venue. Not a clientele I’d be looking to promote to

People I know through other people (not personally) threw a Social Security Disability party for their son, 3rd generation disability claim… 24 years old, youngest yet. They’re hoping the 4th generation who’s already in gradeschool (start young players) gets on the Dole before he turns 21. Hopes and dreams to instill in your your siblings right?

As politically incorrect as it is, stereotypes are true 90% of the time. It’s just that people get so touchy about the subject.

For a second there I thought Rakad was the CEO of a fortune 500 company I saw on CNN the other day. The resemblance is uncanny. Fuck, I would’ve arrested him just for being in public. Looks like a driver’s license photo in the devil’s wallet. I like the part about the gang bible “yielding valuable intelligence”. I’m sure that things just chock full of intelligence. You could probably press it and squeeze out 2 1/2 gallons of pure, unrefined stupidity out of it.

Spelling and capitalization errors on the flyer just add to it.

WTF, assuming this is not a genetically screwed family with major disability problems, fuck them and the taxes I pay for them to be lazy.

Willy, a lot of what I see coming from you lately seems to be racially or stereotypically motivated. Seems like a lot of veiled racism. Not sure what direct experiences you have had with other groups to make you come across this way but all I can suggest is challenge your preconceptions, or they will challenge you.
