"Among those killed, five were black and one was white. Among the wounded, two were black and six were white. Williams was white." from the Black Supremacist

It must not be racism because we have a societally appropriate mix of victims although representation among other minorites needs to be addressed.

"I talked with several employees, and all confirmed that the culprit is integration indoctrination," he said. "It has created a dangerous workplace environment, and workers are entitled to safety and freedom in the workplace.." from the White Supremacist.."

Better yet, why don't we just take these two out and stick them on an ice flow somewhere. Clinton and his minions did a great job creating complete racial division.

For about fifty years America has had this constant barrage from TV,the news media and Hollywood of anything and everything evil.
We all are products of our environment and no one knows what is in the heart of a person but that person.
We can summize and give our opinion and in most cases that leads to futher trouble without a resolution.
I say all crime is a hate crime and evil is evil but anyone pounded on long enough will retaliate.
We all will certainly reap what we sew but worse than that it seems we will reap what others have sewn.

Does this rate a B C ping?

My God, when will we stop counting and classifying.

This is corrupt black BS. Of course, race was involved. He murdered or tried to murder almost only black guys. In any other place, just one dead black would have brought these black racist thugs screaming out into the street. But not here!

Why? Because the killer and most of the dead were union memebrs, IAM. There had been complaints to the union for years about this guy but the union takes no action against its own members. So the NAACP, in order to claim what it's instincts demand, must knock a major union. It won't do that for a variety of reasons (one, there are many other white racists in the local union).

But, if you ever need proof/evidence of the dishonesty of the NAACP and the fact that it is a corrupt organization, this is it.

I absolutely cannot believe that the NAACP would claim anything involving a white person was not racially motivated. My whole day is shot now. I feel wooosie.

On Thursday, white supremacist Richard Barrett, who heads the Learned-based National Movement, said he believes race had everything to do with Williams' actions

It is a bit confusing!!

Since when does the NAACP investigate and report on crimes?

I can tell you that we are very near another of these slaughters at American Trouser in Columbus. There is a buyout in progress but everyone in power is pretending that nothing is happening.

There are new people in the offices going through records, asking probing questions, collecting inventory information etc. One VP is cleaning out his desk right now. But the official line is that they are only in discussions and nothing has been decided.

There is enough stress in the offices and on the production floor over these people screwing with our lives that I fear that somebody is going to snap. Either because we cannot get any information or when they finally decide to drop the sh!thammer on us.

One helpful thing is that since the production people are a union shop, there has to be some notice given. I can tell you that those of us in the IT dept are already elbowing our way to the door.

Anybody know of a VSE shop looking for a good mainframe operator, ping me. I don't want to be the last idiot out the door this time. And I sure don't want to be here when the lead starts flying.
