"Brother?"

"Brother?"

"BROTHER?"

Patronizing doesn't help things much, either.

So what do you want?  The NAACP to lead the masses in singing 
"Kumbaya?"   Even the chiefpolice of Cincinatti says the riots served their 
purpose and put the race/class issues on the front burner.  Not that I 
normally put much stock in what the chiefpolice says anywhere, however, 
this is an odd case.

And while I'm thinking about chiefpolices, actually, you and your shallow 
analysis of the situation in Cincy sounds like you have a job as some 
apologista-stooge for the cops.  And that crap about the sadness of 
destroying "Black businesses" is really a very thin veneer of "I think it 
is okay for Black Capitalists to exploit people, it's the white folks and 
Koreans that have got to go."

Hmmm.  Doesn't that bring us back to patronizing?
