Trump is still your President. Charlie Kirk still Wins!

They should have had the Jacksons on an episode of Good Times. James Evans would have whipped Joe's ass!
Tell you what…When I send my ex-wife her money…you can lick the stamps.

No, Joe beat the **** out of all the sons if they didn't perform according to his standards.

I think he beat his son because he suspected homosexuality. I'm serious about that too. A black father back in those days with a mean streak didn't know how to deal with a gay kid with anything but rage.
You got a point there, but I don't think it was about his sexual orientation at that age.
Michael appeared too soft to his cruel father…that needed to be
'hardened'
