    okay so when does the marching begin?

      As soon as the race-baiters get out of bed, put on their hoodies and pick up their skittles. Honestly, I think whitey should organize a march in full support of black on black crime. This would be a great chance to promote the Porch Monkey Payday game.

      Is someone would start throwing out care packages containing a gun, ammo, and a bag of crack, the problem would resolve itself nicely.
