I’m from the West Indies and there are Jamaican-Indians (aka Coolies) all over the Caribbean. It’s a very good mix; the women are so beautiful. Also,If you know cricket take a look at the West Indian team you will find a few coolies playing for the WI.

I cannot understand the negative, hurtful, spiteful comments from shallow minded people – DAMN NEGHEADS!!!

But Kamala I think is a little like Obama post-race and post-gender. She'd make a fabulous attorney general and hopefully a powerful judge sometime in the not-too-distant future.</p> Kamala Harris is a fascinating personality and so is her sister (Her sister heads up ACLU’s chapter in the Bay Area)…I agree that when multiple identities are at play…the one thats chosen by an individual as the primary idnetity, is the one that matters.

Why do these MS-13 members keep getting 2nd chances. Do the liberal elite have any idea how bad these people are.

Willie Horton is not a fitting analogy. Both the Bolognas (i.e. the victims) and their murderers are the same race, another reason I get a little hot under the collar about the lazy charge of racism. They were killed as they were mistaken for members of a rival gang.
