Advocates Claim Racist Views Exist in Wyoming

Let's move on folks. Racial views exist in every state, city and burg in the nation. Why should 'Wyoming be any different?

A clerk, unable to understand her accent, was rude.

LOL... have you ever tried to get directions at a San Diego gas station?

... have you ever tried to get directions at a San Diego gas station?

Haven't been to San Diego since '70. What language do they speak there now days?

1st grade test:

Which group does not fit?
"...American Indian, Hispanic, African American or gay..."


"A clerk, unable to understand her accent, was rude."
Well, I'm white, and a clerk was NEVER rude to me. MUST be racism.

"People who are gay avoid acknowledging it for fear of what others might do, she added. "
A lie. 'There here, they're queer, and they're in our face'


"Their daughter had been the victim of a racial slur..."
Another victim. BOO HOO HOO

"Young people aren't trying to be gay. It's not something they choose to do."
Sure they are. It's a behavior.

And this was taxpayer funded- a warm up for the witch hunt on Wyoming residents.

I have lived in Wyoming. This article is pure crap. The state of Wyoming welcomes those that come to work and build their state. They do not like whinners, bums, the lazy, and liberals.

Hell, they even tolerate the Drunken Norwegians. LOL.
It is a good state with good people. If you go to live there, work and do your share and you will be accepted regardless of your color.

I was at a local drug store yesterday. There is a senior citizen who works there. She can be abrupt but is one of the nicest and hardest working people there.
She told me that the day before, a lady walked in and tried to use a debit card in their new POS machine. The senior attempted to talk her through it, but the woman could not read a lick of English. The senior told her, "Honey, you better learn to read this stuff if you are going to use your debit card. Someone is going to rip you off."

Although it was to the point, it can be thought of as rude.

When Marilu Duncan moved to Wyoming from Mexico nearly 20 years ago, life was suddenly different. >>>>>>>

Maybe she should take her complaints to "La Raza".....

Panelist Judy Shepard talked about the challenges facing gay people in Wyoming...

The topic of a new race of people must be brought into the discussion.

'I think I'll be gay today so people will hate me.'

What ridiculous swill these people spew in their role as Promoter of the Homoseuxal Agenda.

people often tell her they don't know anyone who is gay.

And, most people don't care to know anyone who is gay as they are pariahs. You never know which one is a potential Dahmer or Gacey.

They do not like whinners, bums, the lazy, and liberals.

Well, they did vote in a clintoid liberal governor in 2002!

The most racist situation I've ever seen was at a work site in Miami, which was owned by a Korean company. While I was onsite, The Koreans gave me the reasoning to dislike the Africans and Cubans, the Cubans gave me the reasoning to dislike the Koreans and Africans, and the Africans gave me the reasoning to dislike the Koreans. The only time English was spoken was when someone would talk directly to me. People looking for racism can find plenty of it in their own backyards, and in their own ethnic groups.

[AppyPappy]

I guess everytime a black cashier doesn't suit me, it's because they are racist.

[ClearCase_guy]

"Young people aren't trying to be gay. It's not something they choose to do. Who would wake up on Monday and say 'I think I'll be gay today so people will hate me?'" she said.

And the response to this should be: "Ma'am there are organizations out there that have successfully cured homosexuals. Thousands of people are no longer homsexual because of treatment. Would you be interested in having this sort of therapy made available to gays in Wyoming, Ma'am?"

Somehow, I don't think she'd welcome such an offer. Guess she likes the choice that she's made.

Let's move on folks. Racial views exist in every state, city and burg in the nation. Why should 'Wyoming be any different?

"Racist views" really means "racist thoughts". These whiney diversity wankers go out looking to be offended, and any attitude they perceive as less than reverent towards them must be a "racist view".

Their answer is to use the badge and gun of the government to make people treat them nicer. No crime had been committed against them, but they want to make future "lack of friendliness" a crime. To get that, they have to employ the thought police.

This is just another one of those evil fruits of the klinton regime. Much of their efforts were in the area of "thought crimes".

A clerk, unable to understand her accent, was rude.

If I somplained about every ride clerk I encountered who was unable to understand me when I was speaking plain English with a trace of New England Accent I would be spending all my time complained. Of course I am talking about this happening in New England and with people whose first language is other than English.

OMG!!! Racists in Wyoming! Seal the border quick before they infect the rest of the country. As we all know there are no racists anywhere else(Well there are 2 in Fla., 7 in Tx., 1 in Mass., 5 here in Mn. and 6 in the UP)

Panelist Judy Shepard talked about the challenges facing gay people in Wyoming. Her son Matthew, a gay University of Wyoming student, was murdered in 1998

Yeah, Matthew had remarkable "challenges". I'm sure in most bars, drunk straight men react in a friendly manner to gay men presuming they are gay and coming on to them with proposals of oral sex.

"Young people aren't trying to be gay. It's not something they choose to do. Who would wake up on Monday and say 'I think I'll be gay today so people will hate me?'" she said.

Was this article just written by the "Human Rights Campaign" gay lobby group and faxed to this pathetic paper, or did the writer actually do some of the writing?

[Spok]

It's Orwellian to hear people discuss beliefs and attitudes that they think are wrong and must be corrected.

[montag813]

the woman could not read a lick of English. The senior told her, "Honey, you better learn to read this stuff if you are going to use your debit card. Someone is going to rip you off."

Call John Ashcroft immediately to jail this old woman for racist incitement. Where is Bill Lann Lee when we need him.
