“Let’s see here: I need to shower, shave, eat some oatmeal (it keeps my cholesterol down), put on my new Obama “Change We Can Believe In” T-shirt, grab my nine millimeter handgun and a few rounds, hold up a convenience store, and then go buy some crack.”

“Let’s see here: I need to shower, shave, eat some oatmeal (it keeps my cholesterol down), put on my new Obama “Change We Can Believe In” T-shirt, grab my nine millimeter handgun and a few rounds, hold up a convenience store, and then go buy some crack. Just think about this for a second: Did you ever see anyone arrested wearing a Bush T-shirt, or for you older guys, an Eisenhower, Gerald Ford, Ronald Reagan, or even Nixon, or Bob Dole shirt? There MUST be a message here, but I can’t quite grasp it, or maybe I’m afraid to.”

This installment of Billy’s Spam Box has got me stymied. Most of the hundreds of emails that Billy sent me since Obama was handed the crown, are flat-out dueling banjo racist. They contain thinly veiled threats on our president’s life in the guise of hopelessly flawed conspiracy theory. But this one was just a bit perplexing. The right is winning the propaganda war, folks. I’m not sure who writes these gems but my brother-in-law Billy sends to me faster than I can understand my nonexistent health care plan.

Look man, it’s the end of the world: We are receiving unknown radio transmissions from M82; the Shroud of Turin is real; our schools are more segregated than the ’50s — can’t we all get along a day pass?

    this doesn’t mean anything. 95% of black people are down with obama, and mad black people get arrested. Maybe if there were some asians on this.

  2. JUCÍFEUR says:

    Black people love T-shirts, is all.
    Remember when everybody wore “black Bart Simpson” t-shirts?

  3. Big H says:

    Yeah, what those two ^^^^^^^^^^^^^ said.

    This might be the most retarded thing I’ve seen on streetcarnage. Did Arv or Jen ghost-write this shit or something?

    brillant

  5. VIET DONG says:

    This is the difference between correlation and causation. If you really wanted to make a point you’d need to do a robust regression analysis of what people wear when they get arrested, and then you’d have to normalize it to adjust for the astronomical numbers of blacks that get arrested as compared to whites. I fucking hate it when smug retarded assholes try to prove their point with a weak attempt at statistics.

    gaaaayyyyyyyyyyyyy.

    well, i thought everyone knew the fashion rules:
    when
    1. robbing convenience stores and/or smoking crack, wear obama shirt.
    2. when invading other countries, wear stetson, tight wranglers, cowboy shirt.
    it’s pretty simple really.

  7. scoob says:

    i’ve never seen a bush tshirt period.

  8. VIET DONG says:

    I’m from Oklahoma and I’ve seen a shitload of Bush shirts, except the shirts usually referred to him as ‘DUBYA’.

  9. Something Worth Saying says:

    The message is, This is extremely old. You guys are late as usuall.

    i thought it was funny.

  11. lol@u says:

    texas drunk driving arrest mugshots with bush t-shirts. I’m sure there’s a million of em.

  12. Jill says:

    @ VIET DONG—Can you help me with my stats homework?

  13. fritz says:

    Show us three.

    Lot’s of groids up in here.

    Anyone who bothered to point out that there’s a flaw in the logic of the right wing conspiracy lunatic who spammed the writer of the article is a plain and simple ding dong. Does Street Carnage have to start writing everything in italics so you ‘get it’? The point is that, although there is something perplexing about the argument, it’s still coming from a psycho. It’s like those dudes wearing sandwich-boards proclaiming the end is near. We know they are balls-out, but we still can’t help but wonder what if…

    Plus the pictures are good on this post.

  17. Zippy says:

    Wait until Sarah Palin gets elected. A bunch of fuck-ugly mullet heads with t-shirts featuring flags and eagles and guns and retards. HAHAHAHA

  18. lives.to.strangle. says:

    SB&TVC is like, more and more conservative i think. that must be the next fashion trend people.
    remember that bizarre post a few days back about the leaked new baghdad video? those were some serious non-liberal vibes.
    because regular(dumb) people are more left leaning nowadays, its alt to be conservative
    SALUTE THE FLAG

  19. wtf says:

    Why is everybody bring Bush into this discussion, he has nothing to do with this? Those criminals fancy Obama, not Bush….

  20. skull front says:

    free t-shirts. they are passed out in communities to rally votes. propaganda on your face.

  21. Jimmy Fucking Carter says:

    The message is: All black men have really short haircuts.

  22. C and the MS-13s says:

    Wait…why was there a white guy?

  23. ZOGISTAN says:

    They are all in jail because they want to be in jail. They get free food, free clean clothing and bedding, free housing, free healthcare, free recreation and entertainment. This has nothing to do with racism, but a lot to do with free shirts. The rate of incarceration is seen as a problem only by those who feel that food, clothing, linens, housing, healthcare, recreation, and entertainment should not be given out freely, but rather seized at gunpoint from those who have earned them. That’s one thing jail doesn’t provide – the smug, sublime feeling of ill-gotten gains. Willy Horton had it so good in jail, so that when Obama let him out, he had to rape and murder to get back in.

  24. Alfred says:

    They’re giving out free Obama shirts? Where?

  25. Anon says:

    The only bush shirt ive ever seen was a green “St. Patricks Day Bush/Cheney shirt” worn by a man standing outside a bar throwing beer bottles at a crowd of people marching in memory of Vietnam veterans.
