Beyoncé - "Schoolin' Life"
Wednesday, October 8, 2008

Police are searching for man who shot a Barack Obama supporter three times in broad daylight for wearing an Obama T-shirt.
Any guess where this senseless shooting happened? It wasn't in the Jim Crow south, a trailer park or even Jena, Louisiana. It was in London. This VOTE OR DIE business is real folks.
According to the Daily Mail, Dube Egwuatu was buying a cell phone card when a British white skinhead with a gun confronted him for wearing a 'Believe' Obama shirt.
The man then launched into a tirade of racist slurs, shouting "I f***ing hate n*****s" and urging 36-year-old Mr. Egwuatu to leave the shop with him, according to the paper.
Trying to prevent a confrontation with the irate man threatening violence with a bb gun, Egwuatu even zipped up his jacket to cover the image of Obama and walked to his car.
The suspect, who has not been captured, shot a gas-powered bb pistol three times, hitting the victim in the face, hand, and shoulder.
Egwuatu survived and raced away in his car for help. A piece of metal from the bullet had to be removed from his jaw.
Egwuatu told the Daily Mail: "The venom in his voice was frightening. He was telling me that he was going to kill me."
Sure, racism is STILL alive and well in the U.S. I guess what I'm saying is, I'm not very surprised to hear this happened in London and not L.A. or New York.
