Farrakhan is a real brand.
Interesting comment about Michael Vick:
"I know our brother broke the law. God himself is displeased, because he has given us dominion over his creatures and he doesn't want us to abuse them for sport," said Farrakhan, before coming to a near whisper. "But they didn't have to come down on the brother like that. He is young, black and super rich. And all of those white children were wearing his jersey. White people were losing control of their children to black sports and entertainment figures, and they can't take it."

The fact he used those references to support that statement show he ain't trying to solve no friggin problems just wanting to spread more b-u-l-l-s-h-i-t.

Which makes the fact that a lot of what he has to say true rather sad - it gets lost in the racist bullshit he spews.

Conversley, I like most black people because they are black. Show me the lowest, most downtrodden negro, and I will tell, that man is my brother.
Now does that tell you anywhere that Russell could be as racist as Farrakhan?
