"White Power! Niggers,
Kikes and Spics: they don't mean shit!"
Til he gets ass-raped.
(I know this is offensive, but that's part of the method of the film. I apologize, again, to all of my Jewish and Hispanic friends. Fellow Blacks, well, hey -- you know ...) |

Aryan grievances:
Diss to carjack to curbside . . .
Celled; raped; sprung, changed. Woe. |

We have two ties. As there was only a point separating the last three contestants, I'm going to cut to the chase and just announce our winners (and hopefully avoid another prison riot).
There is a - TIE - for votes with 11 votes each
MGUYX (3 3 3 1 1) and CLAY (3 3 2 2 1)
.
