    Read it and weep suckers!!!  None of the AFOLS took the Black Pack
seriously, but when those fools get the new LDMI catalogs they gonna get
they feelings hurt!!!  All of the chumps who protested the inclusion of
ebony minifigs can go die and F@%# all y'all who wasn't Feelin' The Black
Pack.  The New NBA sets are featured in the latest SAH catalog.  Lego is
selling collectible NBA minifig 3 packs and they include a ton of minifigs
that are "down with the brown" and embossed with the likeness of your
favorite NBA stars!!!  Ebony minifigs are here!!!  They may be limited to
the NBA sets for now, but yo... The Floodgate is Open!!!  this is a
watershed event for TLG.  An ebony minifig Lando Calrissian can't be far
off.  Remember, the squeakey wheel gets the oil.  This is no time to back
off on the Lando / Windu / Panaka issue.  There could've easily been a Lando
with the cloud car sets, or with the Jabba's palace set in diguise.  It's a
shame that it's taken this long.  Wicket the ewok gets a friggin' minifig
and there's still no Lando.  So, I'm super stoked that there're now ebony
minifigs, but I'm really bummed that there's no WNBA ebony minifigs.

I hope you get your new catalogs soon,

Ciao,

Oh yeah, you should read my lugnet.starwars greatest hits:
8208 - Who's Feelin' the Black Pack?
8538 - Where Brooklyn at?
8621 - the never ending struggle
10839 - There goes the neighborhood b/w Look who's coming to dinner

I hope that you find them humorous and informative.

The struggle happens because hate is at work here, not on one side, but on
many sides.  At any rate, I am glad for the new minifigs.  I must agree, it
has been a long time coming.

My advice on your views of other people, however, is that you should abandon
the concept of race and quit fooling yourself with racial pride.  It hurts
too many innocent people in the end and it is no better than the KKK in my
honest opinion.  King meant to get rid of racism, to end segregation.  What
has happened now is that now almost anyone is a bigot.  Love each other, not
hate each other.  Is it so complex for you to understand?

Sadly, I feel that my words might fall on deaf ears and what I predicted as
a small child of 9 has come to pass, that all the civil rights movement has
done is accomplish the diversification of discrimination.  I know that it
was not its intent but it happened anyway.  I hope that you have the
maturity to grow out of this attitude in this life and see that you are
judging many people before you know them in life.  I could have been a
racist as well but I know better in life.

If you hate my words, you know that in your heart that I am right in life.

You know me

P.S.  Hate is never funny....ever.

Thank You Jesse...
I didn't really know how to phrase a response to the previous message, so I
bit my toungue; you words were spoken as if from mine own toungue.

Thank You
