Quote :
" A special meeting about Dallas County traffic tickets turned tense and bizarre this afternoon.

County commissioners were discussing problems with the central collections office that is used to process traffic ticket payments and handle other paperwork normally done by the JP Courts.

Commissioner Kenneth Mayfield, who is white, said it seemed that central collections "has become a black hole" because paperwork reportedly has become lost in the office.

Commissioner John Wiley Price, who is black, interrupted him with a loud "Excuse me!" He then corrected his colleague, saying the office has become a "white hole."

That prompted Judge Thomas Jones, who is black, to demand an apology from Mayfield for his racially insensitive analogy.

Mayfield shot back that it was a figure of speech and a science term."


This can't be real.

With it being a science term that we all learned in, oh, second grade, I would IMAGINE that everyone in that room (the judge included) knew EXACTLY what Commissioner Mayfield meant. If they didn't, shoot them for being morons. If they did and they are pulling this shit anyway, shoot them for being ignorant.

first line of all Price's bios:

"John Wiley Price brand of advocacy and activism can be summed up in this way: John Wiley Price addresses real issues, advances real change and achieves real results."

haha real issues...what a stupid fucking idiot

alright, this is the most rediculous shit i have ever heard.

BUT, lets say that Mayfield has been labeled a racist in the past. and lets also say that the central collection department has loaded the office with african americans. Mayfield has become upset with the fact that the office is full of african americans and that the office is always losing paperwork. maybe, after stretching it a little, the black hole statement had some racial intentions behind it.

its like we are reading half a story without much of a backdrop leading up to it.

They should start fucking with that guy with more black terms in other meeting.

Like find a way to incorporate blacklisted, blackened salmon, blackeyed peas, fade to black, etc. in future meetings.

funny thing is

even if this was a racist term (which it obviously isn't)

they lashed back with 'white-hole' and then demanded an apology

sigh, double standards

After watching that video, I have to seriously wonder about the guy that had the objection. He has no clue what the fuck he is talking about or why.
