"Bust his jaw, Antoine. Bust his motherfuckin' jaw!"

Correction: It's spelled "Antwon."

braha said...

What's the implication, Billyjoe, with the name and spelling of Antoine/Antwon? Is this something racial?

billyjoe said...

I would describe the spelling as "special," not "racial."

I believe what billyjack is getting at is a reference to an obscure film about inner-city strife, wherein the most familiar response to any fight that's about to start is for a crowd to jump on the bandwagon yelling, "Bust his jaw, Bob. Bust his motherfuckin' jaw!"

The Antwon reference must just be to an inner-city spelling of an otherwise semi-common name.

ALL of you, shut your pieholes!

This is a serious situation, and NOT to be taken lightly! It seems you HAVE NO CARE for those who are being victimized.

WAIT, my ignorant friends, just wait until something happens to YOU or YOURS.

Glenwood, Greenview and Ahland are being OVERRUN by THUGS. Don't you 'holes have a little blogspot of your own, where you can talk amongst yourselves?

But then, you're probably the ones who taught these kids, by setting such good examples yourselves!

Omigosh, sorry if I offended anyone or seemed uncaring!

I just recently started reading this blog and thought I was answering a serious question (and this was just my first posting here).

Again, I'm sorry. Apparently, there's some history between folks here I wasn't aware of.

Don't worry D, yours seemed to be a reasoned response. You just happened to post for the first time amongst the most idiotic people that do post-grammar excepted-.

billyjoe said...

Bust their jaws, D. Bust their motherfuckin' jaws!

Where the hell is our alderman in all this? I have emailed there office several times and their response is always that they will pass my information to the alderman or crime stats are down in Rogers Park - what a bunch of garbage. These kids are a dangerous bunch of thugs.
(grammar - I learned my lesson the hard way that it's best to just not respond to billyjoe - likes to insult and cause trouble)

Call the alderman's office? Please. That's the biggest waste of time to be found in this neighborhood.

That overpaid, completely unqualified room full of idiots are classic city employees. They do the least amount of work possible because they get paid the same either way.

They're also following the example sety by their lazy fucking leader.

Face it, the least likely place to get anything done in this community is the alderman's office.

A note to Latin King. Please, behave. Cut the racist crap or you'll be banned from commenting. I've already had requests to do this. I've given you some leeway. This is the first and final public warning.

BIG suprise!!!

Man On The Street said...

Craig, Is "chip bagg" included in that edict as well?

Unknown said...

I would jump someone calling themselves "Thomas" too. What's wrong with "Tom"

Anonymous said...

I wish you would ban him (LatinKing)! I am sick of the racist crap as well!

Instead of blaming it on a race, blame it on their parents, who is really responsible for their actions!

Sticky Fingers said...

My husband is home during the day...how come he never hears or encounters all these "fights." I'm starting to think that this gets to be a bit overblown.

Chip Bagg said...

Hey "man on the street"!
Fuck you!
