I'm watching the Today show. There's research going on where participants, using a computer, are shown pictures of various people in various settings. Some of the people have guns, some have just cell phones, or sodas. The participants must make a quick decision whether or not the person is holding a gun, or not. You must shoot the person(s) holding the gun, and not shoot those who are "harmless". Studies show that among white participants, they tend to shoot a lot of innocent black men holding sodas. The same bias occurred for black participants (poppin' a cap in the ass of the innocent white guys).

Interesting. This study is being done in a few locations, but particularly in Colorado.

Moral of the story: don't drink sodas, particularly Coke.

"I didn't shot that man cause he was black! I shot him so he wouldn't steal my TV!"
;)

Maaaan, at least say you have a time machine and knew he was gonna steal it.

Wow. Holly Robinson, drinking a Pepsi!

*zzzzip*

Actually, My name's Leroy and I'm going to steal yo TV, sucka.

Actually, your name is Zak and you stole good taste. But who's counting?

See, two good reasons to avoid soda pop -- hiccups and the possibility of getting shot.

But the gunshot might cure the hiccups.

That's true.

Shoot 'em all and let the details get sorted out in the after-life.

Like my dad used to say to my sister and me: "If I punish you both, then I know for SURE I got the guilty one."

Should I add, that's when I think her life of crime began? Fuckin' putz.

Still rubbing her sore ass for all the spankings she didn't deserve,
humpty

Oh, you probably got pre-karma!

I'm in Colorado...thank god I drink Pepsi.

I still want your tv, though.

Okay, but my tv will look an awful lot like your tv...unless I find out you don't own one.

I don't like coke anyway:D

That study reminds me of this.
