That, too. Considering the length of time it takes for them to get things done. I wouldn't hold my breath.

Absolutely.
They have their own time clock.

Yes we can, yes we can. I don't know, I suppose it's a good idea considering their demographics. But who's to say, really?

Now they can stop attacking public schools which is not so veiled effort against black citizens as well.
