I don't see any posts from you about racism concerning Blacks, Hispanics or Asians. Only when whites are on the receiving end...

glad to see that you seem to be monitoring my posts for content and are now indirectly accusing me of being a racist.... you are far off course with that accusation. what's truly sad is when someone assumes something based on a supposition of how that person will act b/c of what they think the person's beliefs are.

for that matter, how do you know what race I am?

Because if you were black you would not post your original post. And I never, direct or indirect accused you of being a racist; those are your own words.

So you assume all blacks act in a certain way which you have figured out? Care to tell us more about how blacks react? Just how are they different than asians for example?

No I don't. And I'm not sure where you are going, trying to get something out of me you can hit me with?

Not one of his 'disconnected' posts make any sense on this thread. Time to send him to ignore land.

It sounds like the person making the racial slurs got what they wanted out of the deal.

I don't blame Price.

I am not sensitive to many things but there are things which set me off. I don't like when anybody questions my integrity. Not being a minority I can only imagine what it is like but I suppose it might be like my feelings about integrity.

I also don't like it when folks are disrespectful to me or to others as far as that goes.

I cannot imagine why anybody would side with the person who went into the public arena and made personal attacks using racial slurs to a public official.

I don't see how you get 'racial slurs' out of cultural lingo? No one called the black skin colored man, John Wiley Price, any 'racial slurs' that I heard or read.

John Wiley Price is crying 'wolf,' in an attempt to change the subject on his exposed alleged wrongdoing as a county commissioner of Dallas County Texas.

Price needs to be investigated, plain and simple.

You show your attitude by calling him "colored".

(I had to quote this gem - sorry to those who have this character on ignore.)

"black skin colored man"? Really? Just out of curiosity, in what part of Dallas is your plantation located?
