BROOKFIELD, Ill. — A zoo in Illinois is investigating a controversial photo that some are calling “racist.”

The photo shows a woman wearing a Brookfield Zoo uniform with the caption:

“At work serving these rude (expletive) white people.”

The photo sparked outrage from some customers and was shared thousands of times on social media.

Zoo officials confirmed the woman is an employee. They said in a statement:

“Yesterday, we became aware of the actions of a single employee which we agree are unacceptable. This employee’s statements in social media are in violation of our policies and do not reflect our institution’s values. We have zero tolerance for these kinds of divisive behaviors. We treat all employment matters confidentially, but rest assured that we have taken prompt action to remedy the situation.”

“across the quad”... Quad? Are you referring to the Quad located at the University of Michigan? Just curious...

I am still trying to figure out why all these IDIOTS; of all races, colors, and religious beliefs continue to post this stupid, damaging crap for the entire universe to see?
I call them IDIOTS because any body with even half a functional brain knows that this garbage is seen and commented upon by the whole world, usually to the detriment of the person who posted it.
If these idiots are so desperate for some recognition why can’t they just do something that people will remember and appreciate?
Do some charitable work, write an important essay, organize some neighborhood renovation work.
Hell; just invent a better gopher trap (I hate gophers).

Note to self: Talk to neighbors about a fully-armed neighborhood watch in case of a McKinney-type attack on our suburb.

I already have the plans drawn up to barricade some of the ingress/egress routes so as to clamp down on through traffic. And by through traffic I mean the ghetto folks that currently cruise up and down our streets looking for stuff to steal.

Get the book “A Failure of Civility”. It’s exactly what you want.

If vehicles are in the equation, you’ll want slugs. I alternate slugs and buck.

So what’s the big deal - Donna Brazile told Tucker Carlson “we’re not going to let those white boys win this time” a few years back, and she’s still a featured commentator with the MSN including ABC - all depends on who’s being dissed.....
