I didn't think blacks took buses anymore,judging from all the carjackings I hear about. Today,in Chicago,cops went on a high speed chase to capture four thugs who had done just that. I heard it on wbbm radio.

The papers/websites really do slobber over the blackies. Tuskegee negro today on abc noise. They're(msm) in worship mode constantly.

There's a chance that someone's going to set up a memorial in the back of the bus or train. It just takes one empty-headed historically illiterate public transit employee to make it happen. Or one mischievous historically literate citizen to move the display. This could be entertaining.

The late Florence King told the story of "The Side Lady" in the might-as-well-be-late National Review. The Side Lady was so named because one eye was bad and she always tilted her head for better vision. She had a teenage infatuation with a Richmond streetcar driver and rode around a lot to be near him. But her father put an end to that.

Many years later, she's near death, a minister and some Daughters of the Confederacy keeping vigil at bedside. "Suddenly, The Side Lady sat upright in bed, looked straight ahead for the first time in years..."

Those present were expecting something profound about General Lee or Jesus.

"... and said, 'This bus ain't movin' 'til all you colored git back o' that line!'".
