when it is plain as day that you don't know a damned thing about anything. But I guess now you know more than W.E.B. Dubois too?

For once in your ENTIRE existence on this web site, shut up and fucking LEARN something. http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/W._E._B._Du_Bois

This is so not the time for your predictable, typical, unhelpful and transparent as hell shit stirring. Good Lord, what did this web site ever do to deserve you???
