MLK commemorative, huh?
Now that we're sure they're dumping the Sacasumthin
dollar, the industry talk of an MLK commemorative is intensifying. The aspect that really irritates me about this particular choice, is the fact that the King had about as much to do with genuine greatness as his memory represents a credit to OUR society, and now they want to canonize the myth with a numismatic insult? Can you say "manufactured history"? In fact, I hear the mint is planning on an annual release of commemorative dollars honoring "Famous Americans", and I can just imagine who (and what) they have in mind for the few years we have remaining. From female statesmen and rebellious negroes, to queer leaders and hispanic pioneers (anything but the fine Caucasian males that set it all up for everybody else), I can see it now: the first ever NGC certified "Silver Spook Set" collectors will cherish for months to come! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA It wouldn't bother me so much if these dollar coins were actually intended for use (being used) in circulation, because it would establish a value beyond the perceived, but since we know cash commerce is being phased out, these costly ornaments are nothing more than the market-scam proof of a murdered nation. In the meantime, the same retailers are busy selling off what's left of our 90% silver heritage by-the-pound, and calling it a "great opportunity"! Gee really? Opportunity for WHO? |

Remarkable. A living anachronism!
"Falling Down" hits RCC. I see Hollywood does your thinking for you, and I'm sure that's why you didn't dispute what I said (just that I dared to say it), but the laughable irony of your knee-pad myopia is that you think I'm an irrational anachronism that stands alone! ((whew)) Seems to me the "falling down" was already here -- I just stepped on it! I suggest you take a one-way bus ride back to 1963. Alan If I could, I would Alan, because that was also a tumultuous time when attitudes like mine were needed the most, and compliant saps like you (and Edwin) stood by and let the Zionist jews murder our statesmen, send our kids off to die on foreign soil, rape our economy, and poison our segregated securities with simian stage acts like Rosa Parks and MLK. Yeah, you had better believe I'd go back, because in 40 years, nothing has changed except the threat to ourselves! Interestingly, I noticed YOU didn't dispute what I said either, but do you actually think things have improved since silver content and common sense were buried right along with JFK? ....DO you? Anyway, I hope you'll love the new faggot paper due out this week, and revere those Nigga Dollas when the mint permits its SUCKERS to BUY them! HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA |
