You should be thankful my white ancestors had the compassion to teach you niggers how to act like humans.
The reason niggers get chained up is not because they were slaves but because they are like rabid dogs that need to be on a leash. Actually dogs are easier to train than an african.

2020-11-12 at 2:35 AM UTC in Are You Going To Miss The Chaos Come Jan. 2021?Not to mention, the same police station I called in the day after 9/11/01 when I lived in another house a mile from the one that they took the flag.
I guess flag stealing was the theme in those days. I didn't want to play their stupid flag theft game. in hindsite its kind of funny but it's not. they stole something of value.
anyways, I called the Police and told them several planes were doing acrobatic stunts over our house. The fucking day after 9/11/01 and being told on the news that small planes might be carrying bombs or even Anthrax and spraying it out the back over neighborhoods.
the next day, I'm reporting this shit. And a police officer radio it in. there is way to much to this story. I was asked if I could call a local airport (a small private one) because they were spread thin. They asked a civilian to call and find out. I didn't like the response I got from the airport. it was really harsh. Funny looking back but an odd response after he said to me "What do you want me to do" and I said "Radio to the pilot to stop" and his response was "I don't need to do fucking shit" and hung up on me.
LOL there has to be a recorded version held in a vault somewhere. but they're a private airport. Would love to hear it and find out why the guy was being like this.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

really, there wasn't much of that pre 2002. that shit came later. Zok and his gen of younger kiddy-script faggots came in and did shit allowed on Totse but that doesn't mean all of us acted this harsh towards others. and if it did happen it was rare. And this is why I'm confused Zok had gave me this bullshit title of "King of Trolls" because some older users told him this. which started from day one as entering a message thread in dialup regarding a sort of hack-group on solving a code problem. and I said I think I had the answer and I started writing some babble code shit and then picked up the phone to create the classic line-drop noise until someone said "We got a troll"
and then I guess I would troll playfully at times but nothing like this. This is how shit talk became the norm. shit talk taglines following a more serious topic people tried to offer input to resolve or express input.
There is a whole history of vile-innocence on my part of thinking "clowning" was funny at the time yet it evolved into a bit of everyone doing the same thing.
You know this was tolerated for years. "There is no reason to be booted unless you dox someone" was pretty much the rule. pissing people off wasn't a reason until this one user Digital Avatar and I kept getting into online battles which lead locals around me siding with him. it's a long story. somewhere there is copies of this shit. it went on and on. It even was by chance I went on IRC on the #&totse, #totse, #Zok or other one of those channel and Zok came in and said "I just got hired by the FBI" . he had talked about wanting to do computer analyst or some shit with them. I don't think he was a gun carrying field agent but he would be classified as a FBI Asset?
such irony. but "Those are the people we hire" like the movie "Catch me if you can". the forger became the expert and employed by the FBI. a Felon employed by the FBI.
Zok site along with Reddit or 4Chan (I heard multiple source sites) harbored illegal activity with Zok knowing about it while apparently working for the FBI at the time, his own board raided and he had to give ISP info on the guy who forged food coupons and shit.
I am so fascinated with all the shit that has happened while being beaten down with 0 reasons for this system in place to do so.
toiletDick and Mike D. and maybe Smeagle when we were fighting on IRS. and they pulled up hella fast on my driveway around 2004-2005 and started smashing in my ground lights I installed around some hedges (like 200 bucks worth) and stole a very old flag. not a cheap one printed. but stitched with patches. a very expensive flag I was given. I had a IR enhancement of who I believe was ToiletDik banging on my door at midnight. I heard the fuckers pull up. black 4 door and a black 2 door with muffler issues.
then them taunting me on IRS. there was some weird symbol spray painted in black on the side of my garage. It was definatly an old local totse group. but it looked like the photo I saw of VicDuk
Stole a flag like it was a flag game. they knew Where I live but I didn't know where they lived. a mistake I made where some cunt doxed me on totse.com in 2000. I found the page before it was scrubbed on archive.The following users say it would be alright if the author of this post didn't die in a fire! -

Compton, CA
Judicial Finding
Election Overturned
A 2001 election in Compton turned into a multi-year legal drama as candidates for city council and mayor traded accusations of fraud. In the election, incumbent Mayor Omar Bradley lost to challenger Eric Perrodin by 281 votes, and Leslie Irving (a Perrodin ally) defeated Melanie Andrews for an open city council seat. Bradley sued, alleging fraud, including allegations that Irving illegally registered non-citizens. Superior Court Judge Judith Chirlin overturned the election, returning Bradley to power based on the fact that the city clerk had improperly placed Perrodin's name at the top of the ballot rather than select the order randomly. Chirlin also found that Irving had indeed helped non-citizens to register and vote in the election, and removed Irving from office and replaced her with Andrews. On appeal, Chirlin's ruling was partially overturned. The appellate court acknowledged that Perrodin had benefited from a "primacy effect," but this was insufficient to overturn the election. The appellate court upheld the removal of Irving from office, but held that Judge Chirlin should have ordered a new election rather than simply replace her with Andrews.

Ballot Petition Fraud
Paul Frankel and his accomplice, James Gurga, used a "bait and switch" technique. They had a fake petition that called for lowering gas taxes which they kept on the top of their clipboards at Lloyd Center Mall in Portland.

What the signers didn't know is that they had fooled them into unwittingly signing real petitions. Frankel and Gurga pleaded guilty to fraud charges and election law violations.
