And Now... A Point of Clarification: Race Relations

interesting indeed
the role race plays in my mind
transparent beauty

In pushing twenty-five years of age, a quarter of a century, I've progressed thru many stages in life that have eventually gotten me to the place that I'm at today. These progressive stages are events that commemorative coins are made for, and if I didn't know better I'd bet that the Nation of Chulo Mint is currently working on one right now as you read this! (Act now... supplies are limited... four easy payments of $19.99...)

In this time spent on this blighted planet filled with miscreants and other harbingers of ill-will, I've learned that people come in a multitude of shapes, sizes and colors. There is one common denominator that transcends all of those physical characteristics -- ignorance.

While you may read my sordid tales from The Little Haiti Video Store, they are not meant to be a social commentary on people of whatever race happened to be mentioned at the time, but merely a minor feature used to provide details of the characters involved while remaining true to the story. Rest assured, be it a black family or a white bitch, the tone and story would remain the same because it was not the story of how the white bitch came into the store, but rather how the white bitch came into the store, acted a damn fool with her ignorance and pissed me off.

Customer service is important in my job, however, if you're a rude, cock sucking, son of a bitch, you can go and stick this movie up your ass because it's the only way you're leaving the store with it! Seriously, I am the gate-keeper. You need me to get that end result that you want. Otherwise you're screwed. I provide a service -- a service that you want -- and like any service, be it the prostitute on the corner or anal-raping AOL, if you fuck up then your service will be denied.

I am an educated hispanic male in today's society -- I did not make it this far in life to have some eighth grade drop-out with six kids get up in my grill and argue over two bucks. Sorry buddy, if you need the two dollars that bad, perhaps you should not be renting a movie to begin with... just a suggestion.

I've gone to school with obnoxious white children spawned from the drudges of the Republican party, i've gone to college in the middle of fucking nowhere where race, affirmative action and diversity are paramount. I have more friends of color than I can count. If anything, I'm probably one of the most apathetic people on the planet when it comes to the concept of race. I don't give a shit -- your race or the color of your skin doesn't make you more or less of a person. When you open your mouth and say something stupid on the other hand, that's when we have a problem.

People these days are mad quick to throw the race card. It don't work with me pal... I got High, Low and Jack. Take your game and fuck yourself!
