    Met Angela in the Haight. She was with Katie Cleaver, Eldrige’s wife. Amazing how one can quickly turn from helping murder people to a "political activist’. I don’t think I need to look it up,

      She explicitly did not help murder people. She was literally acquitted. Maybe you do need to look it up.

          Then you should have just opened with calling her a murderer instead of your rather coy question about the courthouse, as if somehow that event would have been omitted when it’s a rather famous part of her history.

              OK buddy. You were just asking questions right?

                  Oh look you you can almost speak your point non-disingenuously after all.

                  You can think whatever you like of Angela Davis, that’s not for me to decide (and despite multiple comments from you, I’m still not sure what that is), I just wish you wouldn’t have tried so hard to coyly imply instead of stating it. Thanks for almost coming out and making a plain point.

                  As for me,

                  “On June 4, 1972, after 13 hours of deliberations, the all-white jury returned a verdict of not guilty.”

                    Asking questions you don’t answer. The answer to both is demonstrably yes, BTW. So, there are families with missing members. The way it goes I guess.

                    Second time you’ve called me coy, BTW. For someone who learns from a wiki, I suppose I am.

                    Angela, despite what her wiki might say, has a jaded past. People who are guilty are acquitted every day. The reverse is also true. The law is not perfect.
