The emergence of a jail-themed jungle gym at the Tompkins Houses in Bedford Stuyvesant has the community in an uproar. Black and Brown News, which ran this image earlier this week, did some homework and found that NYCHA was responsible for ordering it earlier this week. I don’t think they should put that there in a neighborhood where many Blacks and Latinos go to jail,” one resident of the public housing complex told BBN. “My son will ask me, Mommy, if I go in there, will I go to jail. As of yesterday, NYCHA had told BBN it was “looking into” the matter and there had been no response yet from the mayor’s office. Pretty mind-boggling and offensive, no?

Ummmm….. unless homo guys are built differently from straights the “heart” ain’t under any grass, unlike with a lady.

those two are on my bucket list for sure.
this thread got mad boring the second people started talking about history. zzzzz
*rob*
“she lived there even after HE died”
sorry.
OK Legion. I’ll keep my pervy tendencies at bay until then.
Aren’t you proud of me for doing Mt Rushmore and Monticello in the same week?

I simply cannot read this without it sounding really dirty to me. Does that make me a perv?

cmu,
you obviously haven’t read enough about Jefferson,
when his wife died
it is well understood that Sally Hemmings became his mistress, willingly.
they fell in love in Paris from what I have read, where she could have stayed, she came back to Monticell to live with hime there until he died,
she lived there even after she died.
did you read my previous comment about tearing down our history?
