In a 2-1 ruling today, the Second Circuit Court of Appeal reversed the conviction of former Waterproof mayor Bobby Higginbotham, and vacated his sentence.

Are you still really surprised?? Why do black people keep searching for a reason to like/love white people??

Besides, what does this post have to do with 'not voting'?
 
We pick those offices. And rest assured, our enemies vote early and often




..
lol enemies can vote all they want too, early and often. THE FIX IS ALREADY IN. I see why people don't see the matrix for what is it, cover and cosmetics. You know cosmetics like MAKE-UP. But then again we believe in make up right it's a trillion dollar industry.
