Dave Chappelle as 'Clayton Bigsby' a character from the Chappelle Show who is blind, black (though he thinks he's white because he was adopted), and a white supremacist.

A picture of one of the 'swords' from Baz Luhrmans "Romeo and Juliet".

It appears to be a Barretta, with the Virgin Mary on the grip, a small cross dangles from the rear of the magazine well and RAPIER 9MM is engraved on the slide.

It looks incredibly cool

So I'm re-reading a book I haven't read this millennium, and reading this page in 2026:😳 The book is called Tik-Tok by John Sladek, published 1984

Page reads:

"Governor Auburn once hired some thugs to blind a head waiter who hadn't recognized him. But hell, rough backgrounds are common enough. Just look at President Packard himself, he's the guy we'll be running against in the damned election, an admitted rapist."
"He was never brought to trial," I said.
"Only because his brother was the district attorney and his cousin the chief of police and his dad owned the rest of the town. The public made a fuss, you may remember, at the last election, but what good did it do? Chuck Packard took forty states anyway. People know but they don't care, they get so callous or desperate...
