On the 1992 LA Riots: “Order was only restored in L.A. when it came time for the blacks to pick up their welfare checks three days after rioting began….What if the checks had never arrived? No doubt the blacks would have fully privatized the welfare state through continued looting.”

On how to shoot and kill blacks and get away with it. “Carjacking. It is the hip-hop thing to do among the urban youth who play unsuspecting whites like pianos…. If you have to use a gun on a youth, you should leave the scene immediately, disposing of the wiped off gun as soon as possible.”

On Haitian immigrants in the 90s: “If there is one thing we don’t need in this country, its more Haitians immigrants [sic] with AIDS. Congratulations to the Senate for stopping, at least temporarily, Clinton’s plan to have the AIDSians move here to die at $100,000 a pop, courtesy of the taxpayers.”

On DC: “To be white in Washington, however, is to experience a culture that is anti-white and proud of it. Radio stations urge listeners not to shop in white (or Asian) owned stores. Ministers lead anti-white and anti-Asian boycotts. Professors teach that whites are committing genocide against blacks”
