What gives? Why not pull the offending posts instead of a valid article.
Has FR succumbed to Political Correctness? Have Jesse and Al and Barky complained?
That's OK if that what Jim wants...but I know him to prefer the truth to PC.
Not sure about that. I apologize if anything inappropriate was said in a comment.
That said, the author of this piece (I am not the author nor do I have any relationship with him...except admiration) would like to explain to you that it is not his goal to be racist.
I will make contact tomorrow and certainly apologize for anything I might have said in error.
How many times have I told you within the last hour or so that it was nothing that the author said. It was YOUR comment and those that followed your lead that got the thread pulled. Sheesh!!
I've still haven't figured out how to read long threads and resist all temptation to post a comment before the end.
What's the fun in that?
Answer: The author did not post anything racist.
Check it out yourself:

I didn't realize I was.
I didn't have the opportunity to read the thread, or the offensive posts. I didn't encourage anything other than the opportunity to actually see the posted article.
If I understand correctly, it was neither offensive nor racist.
I'll just suspend myself for a few days, if it's deemed sufficient penance.
Don’t worry about it
Huh? JimRob himself posted an article from WND tonight.
They're one of the few online news sources who are telling the truth about black on white violence in America today.
Yes. I found that surprising. I’ve had threads pulled with “WND” given as the reason.
Also with no explanation whatsoever given.
Depends on the Mod and the phase of the moon, I guess.
That's weird. I've been reading threads sourced from WND here for years and years. Never heard anything more than a bit of grumbling about them from some members who think (for some strange reason) that they're a kook outfit.
I’m just lucky, I guess...
“A Chicago police officer is hospitalized in serious condition with a fractured skull, a victim of black mob violence.”
One has to admit it is shocking the press actually admits it was black people doing the crime.
(At least that's how I interpreted it)
I Thought you'd freepmail me or something, Jim.
These criminal episodes go by different names: Flash mobs, flash robs, black on white crime, or as one social worker put it: Kids just “blowing off steam.” Anything except what they are: Racial violence. “White Girl Bleed a Lot” documents everything.. http://whitegirlbleedalot.com/
