“black people are honorless, incorrigible idiots.”

Why include this quote? I understand the person saying it is black and was probably resorting to hyperbole to make a point or else said it in the heat of the moment, but that shouldn't shield the fact that it is an ugly statement no matter who says it. Throw "some" in front of it and toss in every other color and that's fine, but as a blanket statement about an entire group of people it is unfair and the use of it plays into the stereotype of conservatives as being anti-black.

I mean, come on. Are black people really without honor? Are they really not only idiots but beyond all hope of ever being anything but idiots? Is this really what you are "punctuating" here by using that quote?

You know, I was actually going to frame a defensive response to this post but managed to catch myself just in time.

If I did, I would be falling into the same trap I always accuse other people of.

When confronted with politically correct garbage attacks, treat them with the contempt they truly merit - IGNORE THEM.
