Odd/Scary Sighting...

Thursday, October 19, 2006

Ok, I'm not even joking, I couldn't make this up....

I just got home from playing a gig with Todd way down in the booming metropolis of Colmesneil...which was a fun night. And I'm tired and ready to crash, but have to share this first.

So, I'm driving home tonight, and am coming up Hwy 69 between Wells and Alto. I've got my cruise control on and I'm truckin' right along. There's this pickup truck in the right hand lane, going a bit slower than me. I move it on over to left lane, and start moving in closer to the truck. As I get about 50 or so feet behind it, my headlights hit the back side/back window of the truck, and I see a very disturbing image. There are two individuals in the truck (one driving, one in passenger seat...don't know gender of either). What I see though, are these two individuals both wearing tall, white, pointy hoods. Yes.....those kind of tall, white, pointy hoods. Now, I personally have never actually seen these people in person. We've all seen it on tv, but most of us have probably never seen something like this in the flesh. Folks, whether we realize it or not, I believe that racism is alive and thriving in our society. When I saw those people in that truck, I was scared....even though I, myself, do not have the physical features that attract the hate of this group. But if these guys decide they wanna have a little "fun" and mess with somebody in the middle of the night on a deserted highway, who's to say they're not gonna run up on me just to check and see if I'm white or black or whatever.

So, what did I do? I tapped my cruise control on up, and sped my white butt on away from those idiots....before they got any ideas. So many emotions ran through me in those few, fast moments. First, I was kinda confused as to what I was even seeing in the first place. Then, I was sad, because of the thoughts of what this all meant to our world. Then, I was scared for my own well-being. Then, I was relieved to get away from them and have that experience behind me. And finally, now, I'm extremely exhausted and sleepy.....I'm goin to bed.

The KKK can kiss my white butt!!! I would've outrun you in my car anyways, you bunch of sheet wearin' homos!!! Was that rude? Good......
