    Sad to see him go, he is and will be a character remembered for his genuineness. Texas seems to create these folks who are able to think and do outside the norm without any hesitation or apologies.❤

    I read a couple of his books, they were in the bargain section of a dollar store, "detective stories" of sorts about New York City, ex-girlfriends, his cat Peaches, and drinking a lot. They weren't as bad as they may sound.

    Yeah, Kinky playing the minorities as almost oppressed as his Jewish tribe but not quite. They have the monopoly on tears don't you know? Sick of this kind of narrative. I know it for what it is...an anti White narrative from an ignorant and arrogant Yid.
