Blacks, please dont hate on all white people from the abuse that you have witnessed in this video. If you really look hard at it, the only hate that should be thrown around from this video is against the American white people, you know, real Americans (Hispanic mixed with Ireland) Americans, those people that you see working for the police department, but dont.. abuse us Russians we didnt do shit to you blacks EVER

Can't understand a word he's saying. Even if he isn't drunk or drugged he sounds it. The music, is of course, sublime. He could be really nasty I heard.

You have NO IDEA what Mingus life was like.
Attitude problem? I missed it Bobo were you in this clip ? Walking with him? You wouldn't have lasted a day in his life 'in his shoes' BoBo. Your comment is proof that you can't accept a real man.

I am sorry that I said that wrong. I agree with what Charles was doing, fighting against
predjudice, fighting for equality and such. He was a genius but he had a pretty bad temper, and I don't think that, that helped him. but..his music lives on. RIP Charlie Mingus.

bad temper probably from the heroine and pills, not saying its wrong, let people live their life how they want to, they want to do drugs, go ahead. personally i dont give a fuck

An attitude problem doesn't warrant this kind of treatment!!
