and I saw this same shit time and time again in my 7-12 grades.........and here in Denver !!!!!!!!!!!!!

When I was much younger, Joseph Coors, (Yes that Coors), would gather a bunch of his buddies dressed in white, drag a huge wooden cross up to the top of Table Top mountain, above their Golden beer distillery, and light it on fire so everyone in Denver could see it...
Happened every last Sunday, of every month I think my mother told me.......

And Coor's racism continued on through out my early adulthood..........we never drank Coors beer ever again........In the 70's he added his racism to include the Mexican Population..........
