‘I Am An American!’

(CLICK TO ENLARGE) “I am an American!” screams a man in response to amplified words hurled at him May 13 by members of the Israelite School of Universal Practical Knowledge (ISUPK), who had alleged the man was a “faggot” and every vulgar variation thereof. The words echoed throughout the residential homes and apartments in the 700 block of 8th Street NE. The fellow had little chance to defend himself publicly because the abusive amplifier smothered his unaided voice. (Copyright © 2006. David Klavitter)
