Rosa Parks passed away today.

R.I.P. Rosa Lee Parks. The world lost a good one today.

A true American patriot back when civil disobedience was called disloyalty and godless communism.

Wheh...good thing times have changed and people dont think like THAT anymore

A great lady. She'll be missed.

Totally agree! What courage it took in those days for her to make a stand the way she did!

Oh please. She's even admitted in interviews, that she didn't do it because she was trying to make a statement. She was tired, and didn't want to stand back up and move.

Tired or not, refusing to stand as opposed to giving up your seat on a bus in those days is no small feat! It took guts!

agreed.

Kinda weird... now I'm sad about someone dying that I had assumed until today was already dead

Do you gotta be a total dick all of the time?

Uh...guess again. She was tired, yes. But that isn't why she stayed put.

"I was thinking that the only way to let them know I felt I was being mistreated was to do just what I did - resist the order," Mrs. Parks recalled years later. "I had not thought about it and I had taken no previous resolution until it happened, and then I simply decided that I would not get up.

"I was tired, but I was usually tired at the end of the day, and I was not feeling well, but then there had been many days when I had not felt well. I had felt for a long time that if I was ever told to get up so a white person could sit, that I would refuse to do so."

An interesting note - she asked the arresting officer why everyone treated blacks like they did. He said he didn't know, but it was the law.
I'll leave the analysis of that to someone else.

It is sad...someone who really made a change in our country for the better. People who maintain the courage of their convictions are rare. She, for one, will never be forgotten.

Bruce Hornsby... "That's just the way it is."

Unbelievable!
Is there any thread on here that is safe from a jackass starting an arguement so that the thread ends up in the ALR???
Change the web address, abestoslinedroom.com!

AHHHHHH!!!! I agree with Wilmac, AGAIN! I need a drink!

When I was little, everyone wanted to sit in the back of the bus. So we never got why it was such a big deal.

Of course as we got older we understood the significance of her actions.

this coming from you??

When I'm a dick, I do it with flair.

You do it with a queef, pussy.

pot kettle

Sorry I don't put on 10 pieces of flair every morning when I come into work. We can't all be as as you Willy. I mean, I could try, but I just can't get all dressed up and excited about eating dick like you.

Well done guys. Really well done. :rolleyes:

All without a single ssssssnake . . .

Sssssssssnake?

Yes. That's how the gays say snake.
Also, if you were wondering, online snakes are gay

A nice thread about Rosa Parks turns into your erotic fantasies.

Typical of a taint licking mung chugging bitchass such as yourself.

Speaking of the title of this thread, didn't Rosa Parks sue Outkast for making this song?

Yet another topic that results in willymac going on a name calling spree.

Nice to know there are some things you can just count on no matter what.

Like death and taxes?

I'm going to have to second Cedric the Entertainer from Barbershop on this one.

HE STARTED IT!!!!!

Um, no he didn't. He made the comment about Rosa not moving because she was tired and you started in after that.

He's a dick, you're an asshole, perhaps you two 's should get together.

Tough talk from a little man.

I see you made the cover! Congratulations!

I've passed guys like you in my stool.

Huh...that sounds familliar...OH! I know!

Wow...so you're Phil Hartman in 1991?

Come up with some of your own material...and then maybe we can continue, mkay?

Anybody ever been to the Civil Rights Museum in Memphis? They've got a bus in the middle of it that you can climb on and sit where Rosa did. Then an audio track plays what the driver would have been saying to her at the time.

Personally, I probably would've just gotten up and moved in the face of that. I don't know that I'd call her a great lady, necessarily, but you can't deny how her actions helped change the nation.

Do you think they will put her in the back of the hearse???

Prop her up in the front seat, else Jackson and Sharpton will be all over the whiteys.

Willymac, you're just too darn smart for me. I could get in a cut down contest with you and leave you quivering like the freshly fucked asshole that you are, but honestly, I just don't see the point.

Go buy a segway and hang out on their boards, MMkay?

Bring it.

(Actually, I'm just having so much fun at this point, I can't let it go. )

Nope. Not continuing. I'm not being rude about it. You're just that insignificant.

CRIPPLE FIGHT!

Moby wins!

This thread is FUNNY! You know, in a dead, history defining black woman, kind of way.

But I still like cornflakes.

Anyway, great thread......... :rolleyes:

Spunky!!!!!!! (Spurt!)
