2. Time for people in this country to take a long, hard look in the mirror.

5. No, they all happened to be black...
Go away there is nothing to see here. It's just an amazing coincidence that 90,000 of them are black and the remaining 10,000 are poor and elderly whites...

7. "Pay me now or pay me later. Inflation makes the price go up"
His last words and I paraphrased slightly. He was so soft spoken but ended with that very powerful message.
